Authorization: SB 96-152, Amended SB 97-8 County: Larimer - N. of Ft. Collins Water Source: Dry Creek Basin Project Yield: N/A Terms of Loan: $920,000 @4.25% for 30-years Project Type: Flood Mitigation Dry Creek is located north of Fort Collins, with a majority of its 75 square miles of drainage basin area located within Larimer County. The uppermost portion of the basin consists of rangeland and irrigated pastures. The lower portion of the basin within the city limits of Fort Collins consists of commercial, industrial, and residential development. Over the years the lower 2/3 of the Dry Creek floodplain corridor has almost been completely eliminated due to development. The 100-year runoff for Dry Creek is 5,022 cfs. The intent of the project is to control floodwaters in the upper basin area by means of detention facilities to reduce the peak discharge from 5022 cfs to 500 cfs above the Weld Canal, utilize a specific reach of the Weld Canal to transport the 500 cfs, and construct approximately 1.5 miles of new open channel from the Weld Canal to a designated point along Dry Creek, located downstream of existing development. The proposed improvements would remove over 800 structures out of the Dry Creek regulatory 100-year floodplain. The project is currently in the feasibility/preliminary design phase. Project loan approval was granted by the Board at the November 2001 Board Meeting. The County has secured alternate financing for the project and the loan was de-authorized at the November 2004 Board Meeting. 4.
