Canal Importation Ponds & Outfall Project#

This drainage improvement project was completed in 2012 in the Canal Importation Drainage Basin. The project was identified in the 2002-03 Stormwater Master Plan initiative.

The CIPO project was awarded the American Public Works Association Colorado Chapter annual award as the top Drainage and Flood Control Project in a Large Community in 2011. The award was presented to the project team (Fort Collins Utilities, Ayres Associates, Anderson Consulting Engineers, Garney Construction) in January 2012.
