expected to result in annual water savings of 1,165 acre-feet that is currently lost to spills and seepage.
Conserved water will be used to meet existing demands.

Heart Mountain Irrigation District, Rattlesnake Canal Liner Phase I Project
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $900,005

The Heart Mountain Irrigation District, located in northern Wyoming, will improve an existing section of
Rattlesnake Canal with 637 feet of new concrete lining. The project is expected to conserve 211 acre-feet
of water that is currently being lost to seepage and spills. Water saved will be made available to existing
users. The project also includes the installation of a two-kilowatt hydropower unit. The hydropower unit is
expected to generate approximately 8.8 megawatt-hours of power each year, which will be used to power
the Rattlesnake Canal screen and the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system.
Heart Mountain Irrigation District, Rattlesnake Canal Liner Phase II Project
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $900,005

The Heart Mountain Irrigation District will also improve another section of Rattlesnake Canal with 637 feet
of new concrete lining. The project is expected to conserve 211 acre-feet of water that is currently being
lost to seepage and spills. The project also includes the installation of a two-kilowatt hydropower unit.

Heart Mountain Irrigation District, Rattlesnake Canal Liner Phase III Project
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $900,005

Lastly, the Heart Mountain Irrigation District will improve an additional section of Rattlesnake Canal with
637 feet of new concrete lining. The project is expected to conserve 211 acre-feet of water that is currently
being lost to seepage and spills. The project also includes the installation of a two-kilowatt hydropower
unit.
Midvale Irrigation District, Pilot Butte 27.0 B and Wyoming 31.7 Laterals Piping Project
Reclamation Funding: $300,000 Total Project Cost: $1,381,232

The Midvale Irrigation District, located in central Wyoming, will convert 2.5 miles of open ditch and
concrete lined laterals to buried polyvinyl chloride pipe. The project is expected to conserve 8,400 acre-
feet of water annually by reducing seepage losses. Conserved water will be made available to downstream
users.
