Water Project Construc[ion Loan Program•Project Data <br />Borrower Ldtle Thompson Water District County. Larimer <br />Project Name: Dry Creek Reservov Project Type: New Reservoir <br />Drainage Basin: South Platte Water Source: CBT <br />Total Project Cost: 521,600,000 Funding Sources: CWCB, LTWD, CWCWD <br />Type of Borrower: Municipal (Middle/High) Aver. Delivery: 8,850 acre-feet <br />CWCB STTFPBA Fund Loan: 54,945,500 Interest Rate: 3.60% Term: 20 years <br />The Little Thompson Water District (LTWD) and Central Weld County Water District (CWCWD) are <br />each applying for a CWCB loan to wnstruc[ a new water storage reservoir in a 50/50 partnership. <br />Bcth tlisnicts would jointly build, own and operate the proposed reservoir. This loan is in addition to a <br />:�rev�ous loan for a smaller 5200 acre-feet reservoir for $3,937,500, approved in November 2002. <br />LTbVD and CWCWD jointly own the Carter Lake Filter Plant that treats Colorado-Big Thompson (G8T) <br />�.^�ater. Currently, the flter plant has no raw water storege facility. All water treated by the p�ant is <br />CeLcered directly from Carter Lake to the flter plant through Ihe St. Vrain Supply Canal. Consequently, <br />!he Districts are entirely dependent on availability of water from Carter Lake. In wet years, the Districts <br />are unable to treat and store aIl of the water to which they are entitled. In tlry years, the DisMcts can <br />have a shortage of water and are forced to meet their demands with water from outside entities. In <br />zdC��tion, any condition that would interrupt supply from Carter Lake such as maintenance to Carter <br />Lake or the St. Vrain Supply Canal also would cause interruption in operation of the treatment plant. <br />The proposed project, located 23 miles southeast of Carter Lake, woultl inclutle construction of an <br />approximately 8,850 acre-foot reservoir, inGuding a 55-foot high, 4,820.foot long earthen dam with <br />emergency spiliway and outlet works, construction of a 6,300 GPM pump station, and approx. 6500 If <br />of new 24"tluctile iron line to connect to the ezisting 20" line at the NW comer of the reservoir leading to <br />che Ftlter P'�anL The reservoir will also gravity fIi through Ihis pipeline. <br />� <br />BerthoudI <br />7 Springs - - I� <br />Lyons � � <br />�� I � �� <br />l <br />�� Drv Creek Reservoir <br />�, <br />� . � I _ Johnsto�vn <br />Y I f �= I� <br />I > <br />� � <br />-� a F �— <br />- =�:s� ' - -� <br />�o:�gmont i <br />Hygiena =—:-+- <br />_�,_._. _, <br />- - -w - �c.au �. r:tap <br />� <br />Milliker <br />I <br />ao � � �� ;:� <br />- u- --��� <br />! <br />
