Project Description
The Plaza Project is a multi-phased project intended to improve the health and function of the Rio
Grande River in the Sevenmile Plaza area through stream bank restoration, wetland restoration, and
the replacement of aging and inefficient diversion and headgate structures. Phase 1 was a planning
phase and identified several diversion and headgate structures in need of replacement. Phase 2
(McDonald Ditch Implementation Project) was the Plaza Project's first implementation project and was
funded in part with a CWCB Loan and WSRF grant. Phase 3 is the second implementation project and I
the subject of this loan. Project Tasks include the final engineering design and construction of the new
Prairie Ditch diversion and headgate, as well as stream bank stabilization, monitoring, outreach, and
education. Project was funded in part with this CWCB Loan to the ditch company and a WSRF grant to
the Colorado Rio Grande Restoration Foundation.
