Fort Laramie Unit Approved for North Platte Project
The secretary of the interior conditionally approves the Fort Laramie or south side unit of the North Platte government irrigation project. A board of engineers recommends canals to water 107 900 acres, about 7 000 in Wyoming and 60 000 in Nebraska, at an estimated cost of 6.5 million dollars. A 0.5 percent land pledge to water costs is required from private landowners, with a trust deed rather than a water users association. About half the land is private, half government owned. Funding is available to start work once instructions are issued.
