| Abstract/Contents: | "Highland Ditch Company formed the Highland Secondary Water Company (HSWC) as the entity that will provide pressurized untreated water to new multi-use developments within their historical agricultural water service area for new landscape irrigation needs. This case study describes the process from the start-up of the HSWC through the final design of the first phase of their regional pressurized irrigation transmission system. The Highland Ditch Company participated in the Dual Water Systems Study (which reviewed opportunities for mutual irrigation ditch companies to promote their water delivery service to growing urbanizing areas along the Colorado Front Range by delivering pressurized raw water for landscape irrigation) conducted by Colorado State University and funded by the Colorado Water Conservancy Board. Aqua Engineering completed a Feasibility Study for the Highland Ditch Company to evaluate the options of providing raw water to new developments. A business plan was developed to evaluate company operations and to determine the water rate structure. The Preliminary Design was developed to serve four initial developments and to be oversized for future developments within a 3-square-mile area. Meetings and negotiations took place between HSWC and local potable water purveyors. A drought study was conducted to help set forth operational decisions necessary to help preserve the secondary water for both agricultural and urbanized users in future possible droughts. Standards and specifications were produced. Legal agreements were drafted between parties. The first phase transmission system is currently under design and includes a check structure, ditch lining, pump station, pipeline, and SCADA system." |
