<br /> <br />eJ <br /> <br />CHAPTER V <br /> <br />PUMPING PLAN <br /> <br />Sources of water <br /> <br />(acre-feet) <br />Municipal <br />and <br />domestic <br />uses <br />8,700 <br />2,100 <br />10,800 <br /> <br />Outdoor <br />residen- <br />tial use <br />3,200 <br />1,800 <br />5,000 <br /> <br />Total <br />11,900 <br />3,~00 <br />15, 00 <br /> <br />Ruedi Reservoir <br />Direct flows of <br />Total <br /> <br />storage water <br />Fryingpan River <br /> <br />Stream Depletions <br /> <br />Flows of the Colorado River system would be depleted by an average <br />of 6,100 acre-feet annually. Salinity concentration of the Colorado <br />River at Hoover Dam would be increased by an estimated average of 0.6 <br />mg/l. Approximately 0.1 mg/l would be attributed to salt loading from <br />return flows and 0.5 mg/l to the concentrating effects of stream deple- <br />tions. <br /> <br />Project Features <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Basalt pumping plants and associated features <br /> <br />Two electric pumping plants would be re~uired to lift water to the <br />project area. One plant would be located on the Fryingpan River, while <br />the other would be a relift plant with fore bay tank approximately half <br />way between the first plant and the head of the Landis Pipeline. The <br />pumps would be designed to lift 70 cubic feet per second a total of 800 <br />feet vertically from the Fryingpan River to the Landis Pipeline. A drop <br />inlet type structure would be constructed on the Fryingpan River to di- <br />vert water to the first pump. <br /> <br />A discharge line would extend from the first pump through the second <br />pump to the head of the Landis Pipeline. It would be a concrete pressure <br />pipe 48 inches in diameter and 5,500 feet in length. It would have a ca- <br />pacity of 70 cubic feet per second. <br /> <br />Substations and switchyards would be provided at each pumping plant <br />to convert to project needs the electric power obtained from the Colorado <br />River Storage Project. <br /> <br />Landis Pipeline <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The Landis Pipeline would extend 4.5 miles from the terminus of the <br />pump discharge line to the second treatment plant. It would be a buried <br />concrete pressure pipe varying in diameter from 60 to 45 inches. One <br />rate-of-flow control station would be constructed at the terminus of the <br />pipeline as a control on the turnout to the municipal treatment plant. <br /> <br />45 <br />
