<br />. <br /> <br />0847 <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />SUMMARY SHE3TS <br /> <br />Basalt Project <br /> <br />LOCATION: Between the comcunities of Basalt and Glenwood Springs in the <br />Roaring Fork River Basin in Garfield, Eagle, and Pitkin <br />Counties of west-central Colorado <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />By utilizing water of the Ruedi Reservoir on Fryingpan Ri"ler, an <br />authorized feature of the FryinBPan-Arkansas project, plus some <br />natural flows of local streams, the project would provide irrigation <br />water for 20,489 acres of land, incluJing 14,362 aCres of full serv- <br />ice land and 6,127 acres of supplemental service land. Project <br />effects other than for irrigation have not been evaluated. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />,later would be conveyed in the Basalt Conduit which would head at <br />the outlet of Ruedi Reservoir and extend northwest 22 miles to the <br />existing ~lissouri Heights Reservoir which would be enlarged. This <br />water plus surplus flows of Cattle Creek would be stored in Missouri <br />Heights Reservoir during the nonirrigation season. During the irri- <br />gation season water conveyed by the Basalt Conduit would flow through <br />the reservoir and would be used together with released storage water <br />for irrigation. <br /> <br />The Landis Canal would head at the outlet of the 11issouri Heights <br />- -- --- -- ---1\es-ervorr--ana-ene-riilnortli1<es"t cc.B-nu.Les,- au"trlDut:Lng water-uJ --- <br />lands in the upper Cattle Creek and Spring Valley areas. The canal <br />would also deliver water at its terminus to the Spring Valley lat- <br />eral system which serves lands on Spring Valley Bench. The Carbon- <br />dale Canal would head on a natural channel about one mile below the <br />outlet of Vdssouri rleights Reservoir and would extend southwest 12.6 <br />miles, crossing Roaring Fork River by siphon and providing water to <br />lands in the Carbondale area. The Sopris Canal would branch from <br />the Carbondale Canal at the outlet of the Roaring Fork siphon and <br />would convey water to lands in the Sopris area. Project works would <br />intercept and utilize some surplus water of local streams. Some <br />lands located above project distribution facilities would receive <br />addi tional water by exch811ge. <br /> <br />. <br />
