A water treatment and <br />filtration facility will be constructed <br />adjacent to one of the two injection <br />wells to reduce the particle loading <br />of the raw water and produce treated <br />water which meets drinking water <br />standards prior to injection. The <br />second injection well will inject <br />treared drinking water from a <br />conventional water treatment plant. <br />A I-year construction period is <br />anticipated. <br /> <br />A recovery rate of about 1,588 <br />acre-feet annually is expected. This <br />will represent recovery of about <br />90 percent of the Physical warer <br />injected, together with additional <br />native groundwarer. Recovered <br />warer will be distributed through the <br />existing distribution system owned <br />bySLCVVCD. SLCVVCDisa <br />municipal water supplier serving a <br />population of over 450,000 people. <br /> <br />The receiving aquifer has high <br />quality water and excellent <br />hydraulic characreristics. The <br />recharge water is also of high <br />quality. Chlorine is introduced at the <br />Salt Lake Aqueduct intake at the <br />Deer Creek Reservoir as an oxidant <br />for taste and odor control, and to <br />prevent bio-fouling of the aqueduct <br />inrerior. <br /> <br />The total cost for the project is <br />etimated at $3,244,000. This <br />amount includes $114,400 for <br />federal administration expenses <br />during the 5-year program. The <br />remaining project costs of <br />$3,129.600 will be shared equally <br />between Salt Lake County VV arer <br />Conservancy District and <br />Reclamation. with each agency <br />paying 50 percent of those costs. <br /> <br />HIGH PLAINS STATES <br />GROUNDWATER DEMONSTRATION <br /> <br /> <br />..W.Ola' <br />. <br /> <br />W..hoe <br /> <br />LOCATION OF PHASE II <br />RECHARGE DEMONSTRATION <br />SITES <br /> <br />Turn.r <br /> <br />.
