<br />'001\0' <br /> <br />'(W <br /> <br />Should not enough La Plata River <br />water be available from the res- <br />ervoir to meet these requirements, <br />additional water will come from <br />Ridges Basin Reservoir (through <br />Ridges Basin Pumping Plant, Dry <br />Side Canal and the La Plata River). <br /> <br />Presently irrigated lands. <br />north of the Dry Side Canal, <br />will be given an opportunity to <br />buy project water from the La <br />Plata River. This water is <br />presently used below the canal, <br />but with the project it can be <br />used elsewhere. Existing ditches <br />will distribute the water. <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />Sprinkler irrigation will be <br />used on all project lands except <br />above the Dry Side Canal. The <br />lateral systems will provide <br />sprinkler pressure at each farm <br />turnout. Pumping plants will <br />provide this pressure where the <br />ground slope is insufficient to <br />pressurize the pipeline. Pro- <br />ject drainage will also be furn- <br />ished, where required, on project <br />land. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Fisheries will be created in <br />the inactive pools of Ridges <br />Basin and Southern Ute Reservoirs. <br />In addition, recreational facili- <br />ties will be provided at these <br />reservoirs. <br /> <br />
