<br />Part B - 5, Description of proposed project for Silver Springs Trout Farm, Inc. <br /> <br />In 1998 and 1999 Silver Springs Trout Farm, Inc. completely rebuilt its fish rearing <br />facility due to a positive fish health test for M. cerebralis (whirling disease). All dirt <br />ponds used for fish rearing were bulldozed and new concrete raceways were <br />constructed. Some waterline work was also done to secure the water from above <br />ground contamination, <br /> <br />Silver Springs Trout Farm, Inc. has tested disease free for all pathogens since 1998 and <br />been whirling disease negative by Colorado Division of Wildlife regulation since June <br />1999. <br /> <br />Silver Springs Trout Farm, Inc, would like to refinance its existing loan from private <br />sources with the money available from CWCB. <br /> <br />Silver Springs Trout Farm, Inc. would also like to finish up on work that was unable to <br />be completed due to financial constraints that would greatly help us remain disease <br />free in the future. <br /> <br />Our proposed construction remodel is to add predator controls around the concrete <br />raceways in the form of mesh coverings and to replace five to six hundred feet of <br />existing water collection line that has become clogged with roots. <br />
