PROJECT INFORMATION:
The Level II project inventoried and assessed the condition of the canals and
appurtenances, surveyed canal alignments and grades, evaluated the feasibility
of needed repairs, prepared preliminary designs and cost estimates for reasonable
alternatives, and explored financing options. The Horse Creek Conservation
District has received a total grant appropriation of $246,600 for 100% of
invoiced materials accepted by WWDC. The labor and equipment, engineering design
and inspection, and all other project costs are financed by the district.
In 1999 the sponsor replaced the highest priority ditch segment with pipe. The
engineer is designing construction for 2000 and subsequent years for construction
by district forces. The Horse Creek Conservation District plans to rehabilitate
approximately 8 open laterals (about 18,500 lineal feet) with plastic pipe
and liners over several years.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No legislative action is required.
