Economic and Conservation Evaluation of Capital Renovation Projects: Hidalgo County Irrigation District No. 1 (Edinburg) - North Branch / East Main - Final
Initial construction costs and net annual changes in operating and maintenance expenses are identified for a single-component capital renovation project proposed by Hidalgo County Irrigation District No. 1 to the Bureau of Reclamation and North American Development Bank. The proposed project involves installing 4.83 miles of multi-size pipeline to replace a segment of the North Branch / East Main canal. Both nominal and real estimates of water and energy savings and expected economic and financial costs of those savings are identified throughout the anticipated 48-year useful life for the proposed project. Sensitivity results for both the cost of water savings and cost of energy savings are presented for several important parameters.
Annual water and energy savings forthcoming from the total project are estimated, using amortization procedures, to be 5,838 ac-ft of water per year and 3,293,049,926 BTUs (965,138 kwh) of energy per year. The calculated economic and financial cost of water savings is estimated to be 0.0000392 per BTU (30.68 per ac-ft of water savings. The initial construction cost per BTU (kwh) of energy savings measure is 0.186 per kwh). The ratio of initial construction costs per dollar of total annual economic savings is estimated to be -1.58

Economic and Conservation Evaluation of Capital Renovation Projects: Harlingen Irrigation District Cameron County No. 1 Canal Meters and Telemetry Equipment, Impervious-Lining of Delivery Canals, Pipelines Replacing Delivery Canals, and On-Farm Delivery-Site Meters
Initial construction costs and net annual changes in operating and maintenance expenses are identified for the capital renovation project proposed by Harlingen Irrigation District Cameron County No. 1 to the North American Development Bank (NADBank). Both nominal and real, expected economic and financial costs of water and energy savings are identified throughout the anticipated useful lives for each of the four components of the proposed project (i.e., canal meters and telemetry equipment, impervious-lining of delivery canals, 24" pipelines replacing delivery canals, and on-farm delivery-site meters). Sensitivity results for both the cost of water savings and cost of energy savings are presented for several important parameters. Expected cost of water savings and cost of energy savings for each of the four components are aggregated into a composite set of cost measures for the total proposed project. Aggregate cost of water savings is estimated to be 0.0002253 per BTU (i.e., 26.87 per ac-ft of water savings. The aggregate initial construction cost per BTU (kwh) of energy savings measure is 0.547 per kwh). The amount of initial construction costs per dollar of total annual economic savings is estimated to be -1.30
Economic and Conservation Evaluation of Capital Renovation Projects: Cameron County Irrigation District No. 2 (San Benito) â Interconnect Between Canals 39 and 13-A1 and Replacement of Rio Grande Diversion Pumping Plant
Initial construction costs and net annual changes in operating and maintenance expenses
are identified for the capital renovation project proposed by the Cameron County Irrigation
District No. 2 (a.k.a. San Benito) to the North American Development Bank (NADBank) and
Bureau of Reclamation. Both nominal and real, expected economic and financial costs of water
and energy savings are identified throughout the anticipated useful lives for both components of
the proposed project (i.e., a lined interconnect between Canals 39 and 13-A1 and replacement of
the Rio Grande diversion pumping plant). Sensitivity results for both the cost of water savings
and cost of energy savings are presented for several important parameters.
Expected cost of water savings and cost of energy savings for both components are
aggregated into a composite set of cost measures for the total proposed project. Aggregate cost
of water savings is estimated to be 0.0001586 per BTU (i.e., 157.07 per ac-ft of water
savings. The aggregate initial construction cost per BTU (kwh) of energy savings measure is
0.606 per kwh). The ratio of initial construction costs per dollar of total
annual economic savings is estimated to be -3.80
Economic and Conservation Evaluation of Capital Renovation Projects: Edinburg Irrigation District Hidalgo County No. 1 - 72" Pipeline Replacing Delivery Canal and Multi-Size Pipeline Replacing Delivery Canal
Initial construction costs and net annual changes in operating and maintenance expenses are identified for the capital renovation project proposed by Edinburg Irrigation District Hidalgo County No. 1 to the North American Development Bank (NADBank). Both nominal and real, expected economic and financial costs of water and energy savings are identified throughout the anticipated useful lives for both components of the proposed project (i.e., 72" pipeline replacing a segment of delivery canal along the "Curry Main" and multi-size pipeline replacing a segment of delivery canal along the "North Branch / East Main"). Sensitivity results for both the cost of water savings and cost of energy savings are presented for several important parameters.
Expected cost of water savings and cost of energy savings for both components are aggregated into a composite set of cost measures for the total proposed project. Aggregate cost of water savings is estimated to be 0.0000595 per BTU (i.e., 50.90 per ac-ft of water savings. The aggregate initial construction cost per BTU (kwh) of energy savings measure is 0.265 per kwh). The ratio of initial construction costs per dollar of total annual economic savings is estimated to be -2.01
Economic and Conservation Evaluation of Capital Renovation Projects: Cameron County Irrigation District No. 2 (San Benito) â Infrastructure Rehabilitation â Preliminary
Initial construction costs and net annual changes in operating and maintenance expenses are identified for a five-component capital renovation project proposed by Cameron County Irrigation District No. 2, (a.k.a. San Benito) to the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR). The proposed project involves rehabilitating 42+ miles of canals, laterals, and pipelines. Both nominal and real estimates of water and energy savings and expected economic and financial costs of those savings are identified throughout the anticipated useful lives for all five components of the proposed project. Sensitivity results for both the cost of water savings and cost of energy savings are presented for several important parameters.
Annual water and energy savings forthcoming from the total project are estimated, using amortization procedures, to be 19,580 ac-ft of water per year and 2,151,277,209 BTUs (630,503 kwh) of energy per year. The calculated economic and financial cost of water savings is estimated to be 0.0004399 per BTU (46.98 per ac-ft of water savings.
