Maverick Draw Site -- Pump to Lateral Alternative <br /> <br />:;g <br /> <br />A dam and reservoir would be constructed on Maverick Draw 5.3 <br /> <br />miles northeast of Norwood, The reservoir would have a maximum sur- <br /> <br />face area of 434 acres, and would extend up the draw 3 miles. A <br /> <br />diversion dam which would feed an inlet pipeline, would be built on <br /> <br />the San Miguel River. The pipeline would convey San miguel River <br /> <br />water down the canyon 7.6 miles and would empty into a 3.4-mile <br /> <br />pressure tunnel. The tunnel would carry the water from the San <br /> <br />Miguel Canyon to Maverick Draw. Water for the project would be <br /> <br />pumped from Maverick Draw Reservoir into pipe laterals for the wright's <br /> <br />Mesa area and over to a booster pumping plant in East Lilylands to <br /> <br />serve that area and Dry Creek Basin. A canal would not be used. Water <br /> <br />developed from the existing system would be consolidated with the water <br /> <br />developed by the Maverick Draw facilities to form the overall San <br /> <br />Miguel Project, Gurley Canal would be lined to prevent water seepage. <br /> <br />,The San Miguel Project, under this alternative, would provide <br /> <br />irrigation water for 12,700 acres of supplemental and 7,060 acres. <br /> <br />of full service land. Buried pipe laterals would be constructed to <br /> <br />deliver the irrigation water to project land, which would employ <br /> <br />sprinkler systems. Municipal and industrial water would total <br /> <br />14,000 acre-feet: 12,000 for the Colorado-Ute Electric Association <br /> <br />and 2,000 for domestic use on Wright's Mesa. <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />~~ <br />
