Description
The district holds storage rights in harlan reservoir, approximately 50 miles upstream of the superior diversion structure. Currently, much larger than required volumes of water must be released from the reservoir to overcomecanal losses incurred delivering water to the users at the end of canal, which results in end-ofcanalspills. The district will install two gallery wells in the north bank of the republican river tosupply water to the lower portion of the superior canal instead of transporting these suppliesthrough the entire length of the canal. The gallery wells will be linked to the district's main officethrough automation for instantaneous control of the pumps to increase system efficiency. Oncecomplete, the project is expected to result in annual water savings of 3,400 acre-feet that willremain in the harlan reservoir and be made available in times of shortage, thereby reducingthe district's diversions from the republican river. The project builds on efforts to moreeffectively manage operations of harlan county reservoir and the overall water supplies of thebasin, with the goal of improving the flexibility and reliability of republican river compactcompliance activities for nebraska, kansas, colorado, and the various federal and local waterinterests in the basin.
