<br />~ <br /> <br />3. Line the existing siphon with smaller diameter pipe <br />products: <br /> <br />This would lower overall costs, but would not provide <br />sufficient capacity to serve shareholders, <br /> <br />4. Don't repair or replace, continue to attempt to deliver <br />water through siphon: <br /> <br />The failure worsened as deliveries have been made over <br />the past months, until ,the siphon totally failed in <br />early October. <br /> <br />5. Abandon siphon: <br /> <br />Approximately 2600 acres of irrigated land would be <br />abandoned. This is not acceptable to shareholders, <br /> <br />6. Replace the oldest 600 feet of the siphon along with the <br />outlet works, possibly replace additional 400 feet and inlet <br />works, depending on onsite investigation of condition after <br />construction begins : <br /> <br />This is the preferred alternative. See discussion <br />below. <br /> <br />7. Replace the entire siphon along with inlet and outlet <br />structures with an overhead pipe and support structure. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Preliminary look at cOsts show this to be prohibitively <br /> <br />expensive. <br /> <br />The Selected Project <br /> <br />The company has decided to replace the oldest 600 feet of the <br />siphon along with the outlet works, and possibly replace an <br />additional 400 feet of siphon and the inlet works, depending on <br />the results of an onsite investigation of the condition of the <br />boiler pipe section of siphon after construction begins. A <br />preliminary layout and design is attached as Appendix c. <br /> <br />6 <br />
