that termination point was approximately Waneka Lake/Kmart area. <br />Phare stated that when he talks about termination point and cost, <br />he is referring to the main pipeline and to the connecting pipeline <br />to that point. There is additional costs from that point to <br />Louisville's treatment facilities. He stated that they did this in <br />order to be adjacent to an existing WAPA power line easement, which <br />they feel would benefit the overall project, as far as land taking, <br />that they estimate they need to do in order to get the pipeline <br />constructed. In other words, they are going to locate their <br />pipeline easement right next to another easement, so they don't end <br />up cutting up additional properties. By moving 1/2 mile east, they <br />added an additional approximately $150,000.00 to the number Phare <br />put into the Council's packet. He stated that Louisville is now up <br />to 3 C.F.S. with approximately $3.38 million cost to get to that <br />general area in the northeast part of town. Phare thought <br />Louisville was back around $1,650 per acre foot of annual delivery <br />capacity. He stated that the District wants to know if that <br />requires Louisville to withdraw from the Project. If so, they need <br />to get on with locating the pipeline to the east. Phare commented <br />that Louisville is the incremental party that's driving the western <br />alignment. Without Louisville in the Project, they would go with <br />the eastern alignment, because it's clearly not cost effective for <br />just Superior to require the western alignment. He stated that <br />they requested that Louisville not withdraw from the Project, <br />because of the Tabor Amendment. Also, the District has a contract <br />with Broomfield to have this done by a certain time period. <br />Broomfield's money allotted from the DOE grant is not enough to do <br />what they want to do by themselves. Broomfield's decision will <br />probably be timing vs. cost. Broomfield's options are to allow the <br />District to work out new arrangement with the other participants to <br />keep costs in line or they have a contract with the District to <br />back out and do the project by themselves. The Board of Directors <br />fo/' the District are going to delay this decision based on the <br />financial questions faced by the local governments and other <br />Districts involved in the Project. That being the case, Louisville <br />is basically getting an extended option at no cost. However, <br />because of some of the mapping they had to do, they may still <br />request that $10,000.00 that Louisville committed to in the <br />original letter of commitment. In summary, the District wants to <br />know if Louisville would stay with them, as we both and all of the <br />other local governments involved in the pipeline work through any <br />issues involved in Amendment No.1 and would Louisville be able to <br />go up to the 3 C.F.S. for approximately $3.38 million? <br /> <br />Davidson called for Council comments. <br /> <br />Hornbostel: <br /> <br />On the commitment from Superior, <br />they haven't made a commitment to <br />the 4.8 C.F.S. yet? <br /> <br />Phare: <br /> <br />That's correct. The District is <br />telling me that Superior is very <br /> <br />12 <br /> <br /> <br />
