<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />SB92-87 Progress Report as of3/99 (cont.) <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />Colorado State University Cooperative Extension (Pueblo) Stonewall Springs Farm Project <br /> <br />Progress Status: Incomplete Funding: $48,000 County: Pueblo <br />Completion Date: 6/30/99 Grant Contact: Jim C. Valiant <br />Grant Purpose: To analyze irrigation efficiency with different crop patterns and different types <br />of irrigation systems. <br /> <br />This project consists of demonstrating low energy precision application through overhead center <br />pivot systems and surge irrigation with the use of computerized irrigation scheduling technology <br />based on the use of solar-powered weather stations using cellular communications which offers <br />more effective methods of irrigation. New, rapid salinity mapping technology will also be <br />demonstrated using specialized equipment. The results of the new application irrigations will <br />indicate the economic benefits to encourage irrigators to use more efficient water management. <br /> <br />North Poudre Irrigation Company - Sediment Transport Modeling <br /> <br />Progress Status: Incomplete Funding $12,000 County: Larimer <br />Completion Date: Estimated 7/1/99 Grant Contact: Dr. Ellen WoW <br />Grant Purpose: To calibrate/test sediment transport models and the effect on efficiency of <br />irrigation water. <br /> <br />This project included developing a plan to determine flows of sediment as water is released from <br />Halligan Reservoir. The primary objective is creating a database to calibrate/test sediment in the <br />North Fork Poudre River. Testing consists of the velocity and sediment measures. Surveys to <br />measure pool scour and aggravation will be repeated and studied. This information will be <br />incorporated into a written report to be distributed to the public. This report will also indicate <br />sediment loading of irrigation canals. <br /> <br />University of Northern Colorado - Raw Water Irrigation System Feasibility Study <br /> <br />Progress Status: Incomplete Funding: $100,000 County: Weld <br />Completion Date: 11/1999 Grant Contact: Kirk Leichliter <br />Grant Purpose: To construct a non-potable irrigation system and expand xeriscape plots. <br /> <br />This project consists of building an irrigation system for watering 118 acres of campus lawns <br />with raw water instead of purchasing treated water from the City of Greeley. Plans include <br />expanding campus xeriscape plots and the use of telemetry to irrigate based on soil moisture <br />content measurement. This project includes monitoring the change in water use and the latest in <br />technology regarding irrigation systems. <br />
