The headgate for the ditch is located in Logan County, at the Town of <br />Sterling. This proj ect includes construction of 4 augmentation ponds and drilling one augmentation <br />well to generate augmentation credits to cover depletions for 13 irrigation wells used by <br />stockholders of the Company. Additionally the Ditch Company is rehabilitating their diversion <br />structure on the South Platte to include new gates, walk platfonu, and concrete diversion walls. <br />Brent Nation, Nation Engineering Services is the design engineer. The diversion structure work <br />has been completed and the augmentation efforts are scheduled for completion in July of2005. <br /> <br />? ~m"rt Rrote~rR Tn"orpor"t~c1- W~ll Allgm~ntMion Proj~d <br />Authorization: Severance Tax Account County: Logan <br />Water Source: South Platte Project Yield: 1,500 ac.ft. <br />Tenus of Loan: $239,850 @2.50%for30years Project Type: Well Augmentation <br /> <br />The Smart Brothers is a family owned and operated farm and custom cattle feeding <br />operation located approximately 2 miles southwest of Atwood, consisting of 1,250 ~cres of irrigated <br />farm ground and 5,000 head feeding operation, with plans to expand to 8,000 head. The farm has 9 <br />tributary wells and 3 commercial wells. The proposed project will add a recharge well at the river, <br />13,OOO-ft of l8-inch PVC pipeline, and various recharge ponds., 4 existing wells will be tied into <br />the newowater line to allow water to be pumped back to theriveL The proposed augmentation plan <br />will offset the depletions from 12 existing wells, which is currently being augmented by the Logan <br />Well Users. The project has been recently completed and is scheduled for substantial completion <br />in November of2005. <br /> <br />c <br /> <br />1 TTpp~r Pbtt~ /I< R~"v~r r",,"l romp"ny- W~ll Allgm~nt"tion Proj~"t <br /> <br />Authorization: Construction Fund <br />Water Source: South Platte Basin <br />Tenus of Loan: $67,500 @ 2.25% for 10-years <br /> <br />County: Morgan - Near Fort Morgan <br />Project Yield: 32,500 acre-feet <br />ProjeCt Type: Well Augmentation <br /> <br />The Upper Platte and Beaver Canal Company operates the Canal for the benefit of their 100 <br />shareholders by providing direct flow irrigation water to an II ,OOO-acre service area. The diversion <br />and headgate are located on the South Platte River, about one mile northeast of Fort Morgan. There <br />are 97 junior irrigation wells under the Upper Platte and Beaver system. The Company will cover <br />the depletions of these wells by constructing two recharge ponds, to be filled from the Upper Platte <br />and Beaver Canal under the Company's 1972 augmentation decree. Brent Nation, Nation <br />Engineering Services, Fort Morgan, Colorado, is the project engineer. The project commenced <br />construction in the fall of 2003 and is 95% complete. Project completion is scheduled for <br />September of 2005. <br />
