<br />CENTRAL WELD COUNTY WATER DISTRICT <br />DRY CREEK RESERVOIR <br /> <br /> <br />Completed Dam Embankment and RCC Spillway <br /> <br />Proiect Description <br /> <br />This project involved the construction of a new 9,000 acre-foot reservoir, located approximately 3 <br />miles southeast ofthe Town ofBerthoud, Colorado. The project was a mutual endeavor between <br />the Little Thompson Water District and the Central Weld County Water District. The two <br />District's water supply is solely from Carter Lake, and prior to the construction of Dry Creek, it was <br />the only storage available on their systems. This resulted in the District's inability to store their full <br />water right in wet years and left them short of water in drought years. The new 9,000 acre-foot <br />reservoir, with a dam length of 4,820-feet at a height of 55-feet, allows the District's to gravity fill <br />the reservoir from Carter Lake and then pump back to the Carter Lake Filter Plant when there is a <br />need. <br /> <br />Proiect Data <br /> <br />Sponsor: Central Weld County Water District <br /> <br />County: Larimer <br /> <br />Water Source: CBT <br /> <br />Terms of Loan: $4,994,955@3.60% for 20-years.
