The general pipeline alignment would be initially <br />along Elk Creek, then following the Town street right-of-way for Midland Avenue, and then along . <br />County Road 245 to the water treatment plant. The system would be designed to pump 1800 gpm, <br />and each pump station would have two pumps plus one back-up pump. The project will provide <br />the Town with a reliable alternate water source during times when diversion from East Elk Creek is <br />prohibited by either water rights administration or poor water quality. The project was designed by <br />Schmueser Gordon Meyer, Glenwood Springs, Colorado, and is currently being constructed by <br />Aspen Earthmover, Carbondale, Colorado. The project is complete. The Town has submitted <br />their finalloan request on the project and has requested a July 1, 2005 substantial completion date <br />to coincide with their new fiscal year. <br /> <br />1 0 R~ot Fork Mnf1ml Ditch Company Ditch R"hahi]iM;on Project <br /> <br />Authorization: Severance Tax Trust Fund <br />Water Source: East Fork Creek <br />Terms of Loan: $259,860@ 2.50% for 30 yrs. <br /> <br />County: Grand <br />Project Yield: 8,000 AF <br />Project Type: Ditch Rehabilitation <br /> <br />The EFMIC owns and operates the East Fork Ditch to deliver direct flow irrigation water <br />for the benefit of the shareholders. Water is diverted from the East Fork of Troublesome Creek, <br />located about 10 miles northeast from the Town of Kremmling. The 13-miles of ditch is open <br />channel that meanders along steep mountain slopes and open pastureland. In recent years, the <br />Company has experienced slope failures along steep canyon sections, caused by ditch flows <br />saturating the adjacent soils. This project involves the piping of approximately 1,060 linear feet of <br />ditch with 60-inch pipe and stabilizing the failed slope areas. The Company was approved for a . <br />revised total loan amount of $377,497 is September of2004, due to a change in the method ofslope <br />stabilization to be employed. The slope stabilization work was awarded to Yenter, who <br />commenced construction in October 2004. The Contractor has completed the slope stabilization, <br />toe drains, and headwall modifications. Final cleanup and seeding remain.

The purpose of this project is to provide water storage to equalize ditch <br />flows, to improve efficiency and the reliability of the Company's system, and for providing <br />additional storage to meet future demands. The project will involve the construction of 3 separate <br />reservoirs near the Town of Bamesville, Colorado, totaling 4,500 acre-feet of storage. <br />Additionally, 8,200 linear feet of pipeline will be installed in construction with the reservoirs. Smith <br />Geotechnical, Fort Collins, Colorado is the project designer. The Bamesville Reservoir project <br />was awarded to Barker Construction, Fort Collins, Colorado and has been completed. The pump <br />station to Bamesville Reservoir is currently under construction and is anticipated to be complete by <br />May 15,2005. 411 <br />
