The Prewitt Reservoir Proposition
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 77, Issue 1
Abstract
The Prewitt Reservoir Proposition was conceived and developed by the Great Western Sugar Company for the purpose of increasing the effective water supply of the lower South Platte Valley, in the vicinity of Sterling. This Company, strictly speaking, is not engaged in the business of promoting irrigation propositions, but in the manufacture of sugar from beets. Though the promotion of irrigation propositions is not, in itself, one of its functions, it has a very definite indirect interest in the effectiveness of the water supply of the regions in which it operates.
