2003 LEGISLATIVE REPORT
Active Projects

 36. PROJECT:Deaver Flume Rehabilitation Project
LEVEL:II
SPONSOR:Deaver Irrigation District
LOCATION:Park/Big Horn
PROGRAM:Rehabilitation
  
EXISTING LEGISLATION:
Purpose Chapter Session Account Appropriation Due Date
Level II 86 2001 II $100,000 2002

PROJECT INFORMATION:
The Deaver Irrigation District would like to rehabilitate an aging irrigation delivery system. Portions of Deaver's delivery system utilize metal and wood flumes, many of which are becoming aged and un-repairable. The District would like to replace the Marchant Coulee flume with a stainless steel bent sheet metal flume and replace the Deaver flume, which is an 80 year old wooden legged flume, with a buried siphon. These recommendations were made during a WWDC level II study completed in October 2002.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends the project be incorporated into the Rehabilitation Program at Level III with an appropriation of $46,500, which would be a grant for 50% of the total project cost.
