Water Quality Implementation
This project consists of installing a sediment basin of about six acres. This basin will be along a major canal and will serve to clean up the water in the canal system to provide cleaner water to the downstream water users. Currently, the downstream users are experiencing problems with filters on drip systems due to the amount of sediment being transported in the canal. The origination of the sediment in the canal system is coming off fields upstream from the canal and is not from the acreage being irrigated by this canal. Total estimated cost is $120,000.00. The State funding would be for 50% cost share.
