The fence would be 9 3/4 miles long. <br />Construction access would be over an eicisting road that would be up- <br />graded. For operation and maintenance access to the dam and out let <br />works, a road about 2 miles long would be constructed from Colorado State <br />Highway 140, generally following the course of the Southern Ute Inlet <br />Canal. <br /> <br />(c) New Mexico Irrigation Canal <br /> <br />The New Mexico Irrigation Canal would extend for 3.1 milea in a <br />westerly direction from the out let works of Southern Ute Dam and would, be <br />earth lined for its entire length. The canal, with a capacity of 140 cis <br />and a water depth of about 4 feet, would also include various inline <br />structures. A total of 6.2 miles of livestock fencing 'would be con- <br />structed along the entire length of the canal, and a permanent operation <br />and maintenance road would be located next to the canal. <br /> <br />Three irrigation turnouts, would be located along the canal. <br />Two would serve 6.370 acres through 21.6 miles of buried laterals and <br />would develop sufficient pressure for sprinkler irrigation from the <br />gradient between the canal turnouts and the project land. The third <br />turnout, serving 1,874 acres, would require a pumping plant to develop <br />the necessary water pressure for sprinkler irrigation. This plant, the <br />Third Terrare Pumping Plant, would be similar to those along the Dry Side <br />Canal and Ioiould connect to 9.5 miles of buried lateral. Access to the <br />pumping pla~t during construction and for operation and maintenance would <br />be over the canal operation and maintenance road; construction access to <br />later.ls/;;'ould be from existing roads, and approximately 7.3 miles of <br />gravel~urfaced road would be constructed to provide access to laterals <br />for operation and maintenance. Table A-7 provides additional data on the <br />pumping plant, <br /> <br />A-19 <br />
