April by the United States Bureau
of Reclamation.
Eventual development of a to-
tai of 585 900 acres in these two
valleys and in the Mohawk and
San Cristobal Valleys of Arizona
is contemplated under the Yuma
-Gila Valley project, latest CT the
federal governments great re-
clamation projects. Before the to-
tai acreage can be irrigated, how
ever, two miles of tunnel must be
driven through the Gila noun
tain range east of Yuma.
Government engineers believe
the cost of the first unit-the
only one for which definite pro-
vision has been made-will be in
the neighborhood of S20,000,000.
In the unit are only 10000 acres.
The staggering total cost of the
entire contemplated development
has not been accurately estimated.
The reclamation bureaus agents
in construction of the Yuma-Gila
canal-the contractors-are Boyce
& Igo. low bidders on dirt eXcav-
alton at a figure of S273.00O, and
Mittry Brothers Construction COM
pany. which will drill two tunnels
through the Laguna mountains
east of Imperial dam at a cost to
the government, and eventually to
taxpayers of the district, of $751;
SIS.
One of the tunnels is to be
1740 feet long. the other 4124 feet
long. a short stretch of canal
is included in the Mittry con-
tract.
Imperial Valley press., 1936-06-14

Technically. Boyce & Igo were
successful bidders on Schedules
One and Four Mittry Brothers Oh
Schedules Two and Three. Both
companies have taken part in
construction of the All American
canal in Imperial county.
Only Part of Job
Construction of the main canal
however. is only part of the job.
A complete eriss-cross of laterals
is included in the project. When
if is DONE water will be ready
for delivery to lands within the
area. Development of units in
the Mohawk and San Cristobal
Valleys probably will not take
place for some time after compile
ton of the first unit.
Like the cost of the All Ameri-
can canal, the Yuma-Gila prof.
ects cost will be repaid over a
40-year period by taxpayers OF
the recently organized Gila Val
ley Irrigation district.
Paul A. Jones, resident engineer
in charge of the project for the
reclamation bureau, explained that
contractors have 800 days in which
to complete the main canal, but
it is not likely that the lateral
system will be ready for use by
then. At any rate, he said, water
will not be available until compile
ton of Imperial Dam, from which
water will be diverted opposite
the All American canal intake.
Explaining the operation of the
system, Jones said that pumps
must be used to reach all but H.
900 acres of land lying in the Gila
river bottom area. A maximum
pump lift of 450 feet will be neces-
sary and has been provided in
plans, he said. Seven lifts are
included. The first is one of 83
feet. the others range from so to
10 feet. Parker and Boulder Dam
power will be used in pumping.
Huge Dimensions
The canal itself will be % feet
wide at the bottom and rs feet
wide at surface level, with water
depth of 1872 feet.
The first unit TO be irrigated
by the canal lies in the lower Gila
Valley and the Yuma mesa, be-
tween the Gila river and the Mex
ican border. 1t extends about 20
miles east of Yuma. Ultimate de-
velopment of the entire project
will take it approximately eight
miles east of the small station of
Aqua Caliente and into the terri
tory east and south of Wellton.
Under the findings of federal
board of investigation, the land
is reported adapted to the growth
of practically all crops grown at
present in the irrigated areas of
the Yuma and Imperial Valleys.
All of the acreage in the project
will not be made available for
agriculture Immediately, under
present plans, but will be opened
up for settlement little by little.
A large percentage is federal land.

PROJECT MAY
CARRY WATER
TO SAN DIEGO
Coast City to Consider
Contract for Share
Of Colorado

San Diego may fill its water jugs
from the Ali American canal one of
these days.
The metropolis at the southwest
ern tip of California needs water
for domestic purposes, and will need
it more badly within a few years.
1t can come from only one place
the Colorado river. From the Col
orado, it can come one OF Two ways,
the All American canal or the Met
ropolitan Water District aqueduct.
Gradual realization by the public
of San Diego county of the import
ance to that area Of Colorado river
water is occasioning an increased
interest in the problems to be met.
This interest is reflected in studies
by San Diego officials of the most
practical method of bringing water
TO San Diego.
To Be Voted On
Twice the voters Of San Diego.
after lukeWarm campaigns, have de-
feated by bare majorities a pro-
posed contract with the government
whereby the city would be granted
a capacity in the All American
canal of $4,000 second feet of wat
er. The contract will be voted on
again in the near future. it is be-
lieved.
San Diego already has a contract
with the federal government where
by 1t is assured the right to 1l2 900
acre feet of water in the Boulder
Dam reservoir. If this water were
taken to San Diego through the All
American canal the governments
responsibility for delivery would end
at the Westside Main canal. the end

No Big Alteration
From there San Diegans would
make provisions to carry the water
