The Highland Hanover Irrigation District (HHID) was awarded a $4,711,038 Project Grant by the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program (CFDA 15.507). The grant will fund the replacement of a 1957 Bureau of Reclamation pump station that delivers water from the Boysen Reservoir to HHID's irrigation canals in Worland, WY. The project will replace aging pumps and electrical systems with modern, energy-efficient equipment including variable frequency drives, flow meters, and level sensors. This is expected to reduce water spills by approximately 4,633 acre-feet per year and generate 758,726 kWh in annual energy savings. The project duration is 24 months, with design starting in August 2022 and construction completion by June 2025.
