PROJECT INFORMATION:
The city of Sheridan presently irrigates the Sheridan Cemetery with treated water from the city
system. This causes an unnecessary demand on the treatment and delivery system. The city has
acquired and transferred a water right to a potential diversion point on Big Goose Creek adjacent to
the cemetery. The Joint Powers Board and the city are required under the Twin Lakes Reservoir
404 Permit to install water conservation measures. This project will conserve treated water and
help address the permit condition. The study looked at the feasibility of constructing a diversion,
pump plant and transmission line to convey water from Big Goose Creek to the cemetery. The total
estimated cost of the project is $1,143,300.
This project was constructed in 2000 and only minor cleanup items remain.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No legislative action required.
