The Reclamation District would like to install a new headgate and fish screen to minimize fish stranding and to be able to turn the diversion off at the end of the irrigation season. 50' of new road construction and decommissioning is required.
Location
The project is located on the irrigation diversion for the Wolf Creek Reclamation District on Wolf Creek about 5 miles west of Winthrop.
