Lun-del- Wafer savings aim o( Co. cement ditch lining project A large canal lining project is nearing completion by the East Bench Canal Company through the efforts and cooperation of many local farmers, the State Road Commission, and Utah County Road Department. Two and one quarter miles of ditch lining, several turnout gaps, head-gatand Parshall measuring flumes are included in the project which will cost about $25,000.00 upon completion. The economy of the community has been improved by this project since the majority of the work has been done by the local contractors and workers. This canal lin- ing project shows what can be accomplished by cooperation and hard work. The canal lining involved is located on Lower Hales, three different ditches--th- e the Llewellyn North, and the Llewellyn West ditches. Part of the Llewellyn West ditch required relocation vdue to construction of the new road from the freeway up to Moark connection at the mouth of Spanish Fork Canyon. Incidentally, Mr. Phillip Lundell, project engineer for the State Road Commission, reports that 40 percent of the rough grading work is now complete on this new road. He reports that at least two other major contracts for bridges and surfacing will be needed before the road is completed. The work now being done is for installation of irrigation and drainage culverts and rough grading. The new road parallels the upbound railroad just east of Spanish Fork and will eventually link the interchange north of and 6 at the mouth Spanish Fork to US-of Spanish Fork Canyon. A water measuring problem was discovered at the junction of the canal and the state road culvert at the time the survey was made. Directors of the canal company which included Snell Olsen, Reuben Gardner, Giesle Bearnson, George Jex and Roy Hansen were on hand to meet with Mr. Lundell of the State Road Commission to work out a solution for the measuring flumes. The results satisfied both the companies problem for water measurement and the Road Commissions problem for elimination of extra culvert pipe. This is a good example of the cooperation which has prevailed during the es 15 15 50 states that this is the first year this type of help has been furnished to Soil Conservation Districts by the state. They have also made preliminary surveys on about twenty miles of canal lining for Lake Shore Irrigation Company and also assisted with lining surveys for the West Fields Irrigation Company. Don Cole of Salem civil engineer for the Soil Conservation Service, designed the lined ditches and provided the overall engineering supervision. Wally Kay of Mona did all of the clearing and construction of the irrigation companies ditch pad. He also assisted the LeGrande Johnson Construction Company with the pads constructed by the State Road Commission. Sherm, Jones of Santaquin was the contractor for the excavation and slipform placement of the concrete lining and installation of the structures. Subcontractors for furnishing the concrete went to Hurst Ready Mix Company. Jarvis Welding of Spanish Fork supplied the fabricated steel gates. George Jex is the inspector on the job. Reuben Gardner along with Snell Olsen have been the coordinators of the project. They have worked closely with the Engineer, Contractors, State, County and Individual farmers to keep a normally complicated project running smoothly and assuring completion before bad weather sets in. The project will surely increase the amount of water supplied to the farmer, especially those near the end of the ditch. Sometime as much as 30 percent of an irrigation stream is lost through seepage before it gets to the farmers land.

The assessment presently to about $4.50 per acre per year. Mr. Olsen, said it is the responsibility of the farmer to remove the trees, brush and sod and to construct the earth pad including the compaction. The farmer pdso installs his own turnouts and part of the headgates. The company installs the lining, the other half of the headgates and the measuring flumes. The farmer must also do the final cleanup and touch-u- p leveling on his own land whenever it is needed. This self-he-lp program materially reduces the cost of construction. Most of the surveying on this job was done by Richard Dekker of Provo and Ron Zeeman of Benjamin. They are two employees of the State Agriculture Department. They have been employed through the Nebo Soil Conservation District with special funds provided by the last legislature to furnish technical assistance to Soil Conservation Districts.
