Once mining moves north of Meehan Draw and the area is restored to its approximate original <br />contour, the temporary line can be moved into the permanent location in the winter of 2016- <br />2017. The permanent pipeline will be ready for use in the irrigation season of 2016. WFC is <br />soliciting approval from the CC Company for the pipeline. <br />Design of the pipeline diversion was prepared by Del -Mont Consultants of Montrose and their <br />design details and all drawings are contained in Appendix 2.05.3(4)-4. Some of the basic design <br />characteristics are listed below. <br />6.2 Design Details <br />1) The pipeline will be a continuous fused polyethylene pipe of with no joints that will roll <br />with the terrain. This pipe is the best choice for tough applications and long term <br />durability. <br />2) The pipe wall thickness of is resistant to weather and wear and will remain flexible. The <br />polyethylene material is made to last indefinitely. <br />3) The pipe has excellent flow characteristics and will handle the full ditch flow during the 6 <br />years of temporary installation as well as for the permanent location. <br />4) Each takeoff will have a valve and a weir or flow meter for control and measurement of <br />the outflow. <br />5) The pipe is extremely durable and will avoid many pitfalls of other pipe types. <br />6) The temporary pipe will be laid on the surface while the permanent pipe will be buried. <br />The permanent line will not interfere with any post -reclamation land uses. <br />7) A pressure regulator will be placed in the line near the exit to control flow in the entire <br />pipe. <br />6.3 Timing <br />1) Temporary pipe will be laid following the 2011 irrigation season and will be operational <br />for the 2012 season. <br />2) After mining continues north of the Garvey property and the area for the permanent line <br />has been backfilled and graded, the permanent line can be installed and should be ready <br />for the 2017 irrigation season. <br />Section 2.05.3(4) Page 7 Sept. 2015 (TR -11) <br />
