<br />" <br /> <br />C>}~')':"I <br />Basalt Project (Cbntinued) <br /> <br />Basalt and Glenwood Springs, and untreated municipal and domestic water <br />to the Colorado MOillltain College area. Terminal storage and treatment <br />of all the municipal and domestic water would be the responsibility of <br />its users. <br /> <br />Three types of water would be made available to the water users through <br />development of the project. Municipal water would be delivered through <br />major trunklines during all months of the year for municipal and resi- <br />dential use. Domestic water would be distributed through open lateral <br />systems and available during the irrigation season. Part of this water <br />would be the municipal and domestic supply to the Colorado Mountain <br />College area and the remainder would be considered domestic irrigation <br />water. Domestic irrigation water is the first 20 acre-feet of water <br />delivered to any irrigation user and is designed primarily to meet the <br />needs of small residential acreages. Irrigation water is normal irri- <br />gation water delivered through open systems during the irrigation season, <br />principally for the larger farms and ranches in the area. <br /> <br />Surplus and unused flows of Cattle Creek would be diverted to the existing <br />Missouri Heights (Spring Park) Reservoir that would be operated in con- <br />junction with the project. The water used on lands below'the Cattle <br />Creek diversion and lands in the lower reaches of Mesa and Coulter Creeks <br />would have their present water supply replaced by water from the Landis <br />Canal through exchanges. <br /> <br />Project Costs (Breakdown not avai1ab1e)1/ <br /> <br />Construction costs <br />Missouri Heights Dam and Reservoir ) <br />Landis Pipeline ) <br />Municipal and domestic trunklines ) <br />Snowmass ) <br />El Jebel ) $32,000,000 <br />Carbondale ) <br />Landis Canal ) <br />Irrigation laterals ) <br />Drains ) <br /> <br />OM&R $100,000 <br /> <br />1/ Does not include Ruedi storage costs. <br /> <br />Water Supply (avera~e acre-feet annually at diversion point) <br /> <br />Municipal . . . . . . <br />Snowmass trunkline <br />El Jebel trunkline <br />Carbondale trunk1ine <br />Landis Canal (untreated) . <br /> <br />. . . . . . . . . <br /> <br />1980 <br />11,500 <br /> <br />2000 <br />11,500 <br /> <br />1,800 <br />4,400 <br />4,600 <br />700 <br /> <br />3 <br />
