<br />Prolect Benefits <br /> <br />Direct benefits of this project include irrigation, fish and wi Idl ife, recreation, and <br />flood contro I . <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Remalnlnq Water Resource Problems and Needs <br /> <br />This project would alleviate many of the economic losses due to the periodically adverse <br />weather, but there wi I I remain a need for land treatment measures In this area. The August <br />1966 flood reemphasized need for flood control throughout this area. <br /> <br />Prolect Costs <br /> <br />The total estimated project cost would be $33,940,000 with costs being assigned to four <br />functions--lrrlgation, fish and wi Idlife, flood control and recreation. The largest of these <br />would be Irrigation with $31,599,000 of which $6,885,000 would be repaid by the local irrigators. <br /> <br />Operation. Maintenance and Replacement <br /> <br />Operation and maintenance of the Irrigation fac! lities wi I I be <br />Cedar Val ley Reclamation District or a similar Irrigation district. <br />and replacement of recreation and fish and wi Idl Ife facilities wi I I <br />of a non-fedora I entity. <br /> <br />the responslbl I Ity of the <br />Operation, maintenance <br />be the responsibility <br /> <br />Local Interest and Support <br /> <br />Development of this division has received strong support from Its prospective beneficiaries <br />and at the May 1968 election, district voters approved an ad valorem tax on tangible property. <br /> <br />Exlstlnq Resource Development In Area <br /> <br />Significant surface water irrigation has not developed In the Cedar River area because <br />of several serious problems. Much of the land immediately adjacent to the river Is not suitable <br />for tl I ling or irrigation and to reach the better lands with surface water requires high pump <br />lifts. Irrigation by pumping from ground water has developed rapidly in recent years in those <br />parts of the area where an adequate aquifer Is present. <br /> <br />Effect on Water Supp Iv In Project Area <br /> <br />Operation of the Cedar Rapids Division would have some effect on the fol lowing hydro- <br />electric power plants: lake Ericson Plant, Ericson; Cedar Val ley Plant, Spalding; Fullerton <br />Fullerton - al I on the Cedar River, and Monroe Plant, Monroe; and Columbus Plant, Columbus _ <br />on the loup River. This wi I I require power interference negotIations and agreements. <br />The municipal and Industrial water supply needs In this area are adequately served by <br />pumping from ground water aquifers. <br /> <br />Plant. <br /> <br />7-2 <br /> <br />. <br />
