Project Data <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Borrower: Ken, Dave & John Guenzi County: Logan <br /> <br />Project Name: Groundwater Recharge Project Project Type: Well Augmentation <br /> <br />Drainage Basin: South Platte Water Source: Wells <br /> <br />Total Project Cost: 5368,250 Funding Sources: CWCS, Guenzis <br /> <br />Type of Borrower: Agricultural Aver. Delivery: 2000 acre-feet (consumptive) <br /> <br />CWCB Construction Fund Loan: 5331,425 <br /> <br />Interest Rate: 2.5% <br /> <br />Term: 30 years <br /> <br />Ken, Dave and John Guenzi own and operate a large group of farms in Logan County in NE <br />Colorado, consisting of approximately 2600 acres of sprinkler and flood irrigated farm ground. <br />Some of the ground is irrigated with direct flow water and some has reservoir water. All of the land <br />is also irrigated with 31 tributary groundwater wells, with the majority of the land relying solely on <br />the wells. Of the 31 wells 25 are operational at this time. Wells are currently augmented under <br />the Logan Well Users (LWU) plan of operation, to replace depletions during times when there is a <br />ftcallft on the river by a senior downstream water right. Their wells produce approximately 1510 <br />acre-feet of summer-time depletions and approximately 960 acre-feet of winter-time depletions. <br />The project will consist of purchasing a farm with existing recharge facilities that were previously fed . <br />only by the Pwnee Ditch. One new recharge well will be drilled and one existing well rehabilitated. <br />The wells would pump up to a combined maximum rate of 12 cfs. This would produce up to 2000 <br />acre.feet annually from the 2 wells. Approximately 2100 feet of 12" PVC and 4500 feet of 21" PVC <br />piping will be installed. The eWCB loan will include only that portion of the farm purchase occupied <br />by the existing recharge ponds (100 acres of pasture with 3 pond areas). <br /> <br />~ ,- I <br />· .J <br />.. <br />'1' <br />i' <br /> <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />c <br />, <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />. <br />____0______'-___. <br />i ~l <br />-----: I' <br />" . <br />. , . <br />1,- '(Io:f.,' <br />. ,.:; I <br />'.,llt I <br />r; , ; <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />I I <br />,~{_L~ <br /> <br />, o.kYoIIe <br />I <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />Guenzi Farms <br /> <br />-~ <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />.
