<br /> <br />. <br /> <br />CHAPTER II <br /> <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br /> <br />facilities, and future investigations, Construction costs for the lateral <br />and drainage systems were roughly estimated by comparison with recent costs <br />of such systems on similar projects. Costs of the lateral systems were <br />estimated at $190 for each acre of irrigable land and costs of the drain- <br />age system vere estimated at $100 per irrigable -acre. <br /> <br />Annual operation, maintenance, and replacement costs of Juniper proj- <br />ect facilities were based on 1960-62 prices. The estimates were made from <br />data for similar vorks on existing projects, with allowances for varying <br />local conditions, <br /> <br />The Juniper project has been assigned costs of additions to the Colo- <br />rado River Storage project transmission system that would be necessary to <br />increase the capacity of the system as a result of the Juniper project <br />power development, The assignment of construction costs was based on $100 <br />for each kilowatt of installed capacity at the Juniper powerplant and the <br />assignment of operation, maintenance, and replacement costs was_ based on <br />$1.50 per kilowatt, The increased transmission costs would actually be a <br />part of the Colorado River Storage project Transmission division but they <br />have been assigned to the Juniper project for use in the project economic <br />analyses, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The estimated costs for the various project works, including prelim- <br />inary estimates made by the National Park Service for the basic recrea- <br />tional facilities, are summarized in the following table, <br /> <br />Estimated costs <br /> <br />Feature <br />Juniper Dam and Reservoir <br />Artesia Dam and Reservoir <br />Deadman Bench Canal <br />Sunbeam Canal <br />Pinyon Canal <br />Artesia Canal <br />Wonsits Canal <br />Savannah Butte Canal <br />Laterals <br />Drains <br />Juniper powerplant and switchyard <br />Transmission system <br />Recreational development <br />Total <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Construction <br />cost <br />$13,310,000 <br />6,-500.000 <br />80,990,000 ) <br />760,000 ) <br />370,000 ) <br />270,000 ) <br />360,000 ) <br />580.000 ) <br />19,000,000 ) <br />10,000,000 ) <br />9,520,000 <br />3,000,000 <br />904.000 <br />145.564.000 <br /> <br />Annual <br />operation. <br />maintenancet <br />and replace- <br />ment costs <br />$9,000 <br />8,000 <br /> <br />300,000 <br /> <br />B4,oOO <br />45,000 <br />86,000 <br />532,000 <br /> <br />25 <br /> <br />
