PROJECT INFORMATION:
The Town of Encampment undertook construction of a new diversion facility and 1,800 feet of transmission line in 1986. Encampment would now like to pursue phase two of that project and enclose the remaining 6,200 feet of open ditch in a pipeline. The total project is estimated to cost about 800,000. The 2001 appropriation was 50% loan, 50% grant to finance the final design and specifications for the project. The sponsor has paid the loan portion of design expenses to date, so no loan funds have been disbursed during the design phase. The current request is for fifty percent ($400,000) of the funding to complete the project. Fifty percent ($400,000) of the project will be funded by the Town of Encampment using Capital Facilities Tax funds.

This project is currently under construction and should be completed early in 2003.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No legislative action required.
