Gila Gravity Main Canal

 

 

Date: Ongoing
Location: Yuma Mesa Irrigation and Drainage District
Sponsor: U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region, Yuma Area Office

 

 

Highlights

ITRC modeled two structures:

  1. The "Y" check structure that services Yuma Mesa Irrigation and Drainage District

  2. The 3 radial gates on Imperial Dam, for flow control on a new flume

ITRC designed the optimized control for the underflow "Y" check structure on the Gila Gravity Main Canal, about 79,000 feet downstream of the Imperial Dam, and made recommendations for operation and hardware. ITRC continues to work with the Yuma Area Office and Yuma Mesa Irrigation & Drainage District on the specification of the control and monitoring hardware, specification of the control software and monitoring requirements, and development of construction drawings for the Replogle flume.
