Two Million Dollar Uintah Irrigation and Power Project
A proposed two million dollar irrigation and power project for Uintah County Utah aims to divert Green River waters through a dam and canal system to irrigate 200 000 acres across Dead Man Beach and Coyote Valley. Promoters led by Ex sheriff John Pope and banker partners envision tunnels and a power plant to lift water, with initial filings for 10000 cubic feet per second. The project could exceed four and three quarters million dollars and expand agricultural land in Uintah County by about two hundred thousand acres.
