West Cache Canal Company, Newton Lateral Piping Project
Reclamation Funding: $1,000,000 Total Project Cost: $2,480,000

The West Cache Canal Company, located in northern Utah, will replace 5.3 miles of earthen canal with a
pressurized pipe and replace 23 small, inefficient pump stations with one centralized pump station. The
project is expected to save 2,352 acre-feet of water per year currently lost to seepage. This project is
expected to improve irrigation water quality and supply reliability which will allow for future conversion
from flood irrigation to pivot irrigation in the service area.

Washington
Kennewick Irrigation District, Canal Lining Project
Reclamation Funding: $1,000,000 Total Project Cost: $3,424,874

The Kennewick Irrigation District, located near Yakima, Washington, will install 5.6 miles of high-density
polyethylene geomembrane canal liner on their earthen main canals and diversions. The project is expected
to result in annual water savings of 1,237 acre-feet currently lost to seepage. The conserved water will
remain in the river system.

Kittitas Reclamation District, Water Conservation and Stream Supplementation
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $600,000

The Kittitas Reclamation District, located near Yakima, Washington, will line approximately 1,600 feet of
the South Branch Canal with an impermeable geotextile membrane and concrete. The project is expected to
conserve 183 acre-feet of water per year, which is currently lost to seepage. The conserved water will
provide benefits for fish and wildlife by helping to restore instream flows in over-appropriated or flow-
impaired tributaries to the upper Yakima River.

Quincy-Columbia Basin Irrigation District, W53.1D & E Canal Lining
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $910,000

The Quincy-Columbia Basin Irrigation District will line 8,422 feet of the currently unlined West Canal.
The project is expected to save 855 acre-feet of water per year currently lost to seepage. The water saved
will help meet the needs of rural and agricultural water users.

Wyoming
Eden Valley Irrigation and Drainage District, Eden Canal Lining Project
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $630,000

The Eden Valley Irrigation and Drainage District, located in central Wyoming, will replace 1,100 linear
feet of open canal with a polyvinyl chloride lining and shotcrete. The project is expected to result in annual
water savings of 1,554 acre-feet that is currently lost to seepage. The conserved water will remain in the
system to meet existing demands.

Hanover Irrigation District, Cottonwood Check and Spill Project
Reclamation Funding: $275,000 Total Project Cost: $553,000

The Hanover Irrigation District in northern Wyoming will improve the existing Cottonwood check and spill
structure, which delivers water from the Boyson Reservoir, with a new upgraded check and spill structure.
The project also includes measurement devices and controls to better manage flows. The project is
