Rito Seco FER 4 <br />In addition, about 10 critically eroded areas will be treated with <br />structural measures. The remaining 21 will be treated under the land <br />treatment program at an 80-20 cost share rate. The total lnsrallation <br />cost of the 21 areas treated under the land treatment program is esti- <br />mated to be $994,600. The local sponsors share of [he cost for treat- <br />ment of 21 critically eroded areas is $200,000. An estimated $5,300 <br />annual operation, maintenance and repair cost will be required. <br />The total structural measure installation cost including construction, <br />engineering, pro}ect administration and land rights would be $787,300. <br />The local share of the $787,300 total installation cost is an estimated <br />$78,600. In addition, the sponsors will incur operation, maintenance and <br />repair cost of $10,600 annually. The total average annual cost is <br />$58,900. Average annual benefits are estimated to be $68,500. This <br />results in a benefit-cost ratio of 1.2:1.0. <br />Alternative ~3: A proposed floodway would begin near Highway 159, <br />pass below Salazar Reservoir, cross Rito Seco Creek channel, a county <br />road, Highway 152, Peoples Ditch and outlet into Culebra Creek south of <br />San Luis. The floodway would be approximately 2.7 miles long. The <br />first 0.85-mile would have a bottom width of 300 feet, and a dike on the <br />town side of the floodway with a depth of flow including freeb~~ard of 5 <br />feet. The next 0. 7$-mile would have a bottom width of 300 feet, and a <br />dike on the town side of [he floodway with a depth of flow including free- <br />board of 4 feet. The last 1.02 miles, beginning at the county road, <br />would have a bottom width of 780 feet, and dikes on each side with a <br />depth of flow plus freeboard of 4 feet. A total of 2$0 acres ~+ould be <br />inundated with this alternative. [See Figures 3, 4, and 5l• <br />There would be two siphons under [he floodway. The first below Salazar <br />Reservoir - a 600-foot 36" diameter reinforced concrete siphon to carry <br />approximately 25 cfs of irrigation water. The second would be for the <br />Peoples Ditch - an 800-foot, 36" diameter reinforced concrete :siphon to <br />carry approximately 25 cfs of irrigation water. Where the floodway <br />crosses the county road and Highway 152, reinforced concrete box cul- <br />verts and dip sections would need to be constructed. <br />The proposed floodway is described as follows: <br />Station 0+00: A bottom width of 300 ft. with a flow depth of 3 <br />feet, plus 2 feet of freeboard. At a velocity of 4.4 fps, the <br />capacity is 4,000 cfs. The floodway dike (35,000 cu. yds. of fill) <br />is on the town side of the structure. <br />Station 45+00 to 86+00: A bottom width of 300 ft. with a flow <br />depth of 2 feet, plus 2 feet of freeboard. At a velocity of 5.4 <br />fps, the capacity is 6,800 cfs. The floodway dike (21,85C cu. yds <br />of fill) is on'the town side of the structure. <br />
