<br />002133 <br /> <br />, <br />I <br />r <br /> <br />2.1.6 Consolidated and Pace Ditch Headgates <br /> <br />Concern: <br /> <br />The cutting of the south bank at the Consolidated and <br />Pace Ditch headgates would result in flooding once again toward <br />the City of Monte vista. <br /> <br />Findings: <br /> <br />A strip of land approximately 30 feet wide by 200 feet <br />long on the south bank downstream of the diversion structure <br />for the Consolidated Ditch was eroded during the flood. This <br />erosion has since progressed to take in a segment of the Pace <br />Ditch which diverts immediately downstream of the Consolidated <br />Ditch. The river upstream of the Consolidated Ditch diversion <br />structure is believed by the ditch owners to be following a new <br />meander path. <br /> <br />t <br />. <br /> <br />Several remedial options have been proposed: <br /> <br />1) <br /> <br />protect the bank as is with <br />excavate a new course for the <br />same point of diversion, <br /> <br />fill and riprap and <br />Pace Ditch using the <br /> <br />2) Re-establish the lost embankment with riprap to its <br />old position and re-excavate the Pace Ditch where it <br />was, <br /> <br />3 ) <br /> <br />Protect the bank as <br />point of diversion <br />Consolidated Ditch <br />deliver water to the <br /> <br />is and establish an alternate <br />for the Pace Ditch in the <br />and construct a lateral to <br />Pace Ditch, and <br /> <br />4) Protect the bank as is and move the point of <br />diversion for the Pace and Consolidated ditches <br />upstream approximately 0.5 mile to the headgate of <br />the Monte Vista Canal and construct laterals to feed <br />these ditches. <br /> <br />Ground surveys would be necessary to determine if the <br />last two options are physically feasible. <br /> <br />Cost Estimates: <br /> <br />option 1 - $ 30,000 <br />Option 2 - $ 50,000 <br />Option 3 - $ 25,000 <br />Option 4 - $200,000 <br /> <br />45 <br />
