Construct and util~ ;e;dsting ground water recharge facilities to demonstrate b(mefits and <br />. increase recharge. ' , <br /> <br />A. Construct a major recharge pit northeast of Del Norte such that winter ground water <br />recharge can be effectively accomplished, Diversion points from the Rio Grande <br />Canal to the recharge pit have been increased to two and by the end of the study, <br />may be increased to three or four, Tract acquired for recharge includes an area of <br />approximately 345 acres. Recharge tract exceeds original plans and will require <br />additional construction of berms and ditches to allow maximum utilization. <br /> <br />B. Obtain cooperation of owners of existing recharge facilities located in the Closed <br />Basin north of the Rio Grande, <br /> <br />C. Construct a recharge pit northwest of the Monte Vista National Wildlife Refuge. <br />The objective of this recharge pit will be to attempt to recharge the confined aquifer. <br /> <br />Keith Holland, President, Center.
