<br />. <br /> <br />The concrete short wall will occupy the next 100 feet of the <br />river channel. This 5 foot high wall will also be steel <br />reinforced concrete with a minimum thickness of 15 inches. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The remaining distance across the river channel will be <br />blocked with a sand dam. This sand dam will be constructed <br />to a height greater than that of the bladder gate but less <br />than that of the surrounding riverbank. <br /> <br />These features are shown in the preliminary set of plans found in <br />Appendix B. <br /> <br />Water Rights <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />There are 90 shareholders in the JLRIC with <br />400.0 cfs from the South Platte River under <br />call of May 18, 1901. The JLRIC has decrees <br />storage water rights: <br />Reservoir Amount <br />Priority No. fu:ID <br />1) 20 30,992.00 <br />2) 20 4,637.00 <br />3) 20R (refill) 8,269.92 <br /> <br />rights to divert <br />an original river <br />for the following <br /> <br />Date of <br />Ap'propriation/ Adiudication <br />05-18-1901/01-15-1914 <br />05-18-1901/05-11-1915 <br />12-31-1929/06-08-1965 <br /> <br />The official name on the decree is the JACKSON LAKE RESERVOIR AND <br />IRRIGATION COMPANY with their water being diverted down the <br />JACKSON LAKE INLET DITCH. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The JLRIC diverted a total of 22,063 acre feet in 1996, 46,201 <br />acre feet in 1997, and 21,257 acre feet in 1998, according to <br />State Engineer records. The average diversion for the past 11 <br />years is 34,000 acre feet. Yearly diversions for the JLRIC would <br />be considered fairly inconsistent. Variations in these numbers <br />correspond to the amount of rainfall during the irrigation <br />season. More rainfall in a certain year meant that less water had <br />to be diverted into the reservoir and vice versa. The S.E.O. <br />diversion records are found in Appendix C. <br /> <br />Cost Estimate <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The estimated total project cost is $374,000. Project planning <br />and engineering design will be provided by Jack Odor of GASP. <br /> <br />Feasibility Study <br />Jackson Lake Reservoir and <br />Irrigation Company Diversion Structure <br />September 1999 <br /> <br />8 <br /> <br />. <br />
