<br />River basin. The Woodchuck Ditch Company operates the ditch to supply water to 13 shareholders for
<br />irrigation within the 390-acre service area. The ditch has been damaged by a landslide and the Company
<br />plans to rehabilitate it prior to the 2000 irrigation season. The average annual volume to be diverted is 975
<br />acre-feet. The Woodchuck Ditch Company is a mutual ditch company and a nonprofit corporation
<br />registered in the State of Colorado. Mike DiLuzio, P.E. of the USDA Natural Resources Conservation
<br />Service has completed Plans and Specifications for the project. John Van Sciver, P.E., CWCB staff, will
<br />complete the feasibility study with help from the Company, the UYWCD, and the NRCS. Proposed funding
<br />for the project consists of a CWCB Small Project Loan for $40,000, an Upper 'Yampa WCD grant for
<br />$40,000, and a USDA NRCS grant for $70,000.
