Please see <br />the attached project summary sheet and a letter from Walter Welton, the President of <br />Consolidated Mutual. <br /> <br />Backl!:round <br /> <br />At the January 27, 1999 Board meeting, the Board recommended a Construction Fund loan of <br />$10.0 million to the Consolidated Mutual Water Company for the Fortune Reservoir Project. The <br />loan was subsequently authorized by the legislature in SB 99-173. <br /> <br />A condition of loan approval was the completion of a feasibility study. The feasibility study was <br />prepared by BBC Research and Consulting (BBC) of Denver and was accepted by the CWCB, <br />staff in October of last year. BBC also prepared an updated financial analysis for this additional <br />funding request. <br /> <br />A loan contract with the Company for $10.0 million was executed in December 1999. The term <br />of the loan is ten years and the lending rate is 4.75 percent. <br /> <br />Property acquisition, permitting and engineering design work have been completed. Plans and <br />specifications for the project were approved by the State Engineer's Office in November 1999. <br />Construction is underway and the project is scheduled for substantial completion in March 2002. <br /> <br />_. <br />
