Georgia agreed that since she is the respondent in the petition, she is

this in writing. Commissioners contacted the Wyoming Attorney Gen-
eral's Office and the Local Government Liability Insurance for direction
on how to proceed in this matter. The State Attorney General advised
that his office advises County Attorneys, not County Commissions.
LGLP indicated that they will not become involved in this matter. After

for independent counsel to advise and direct them through the legal
process called for in the Statute, 18-3-907, referenced by the peti-
tion.

that might help pay the cost of repairs to their work. The Commis-
sioners stated that the county did not maintain any type of insurance

covered by the sub-contractors.

GENERATION FACILITY AT LOWER SUNSHINE DAM
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a hearing has been set for 11:30 oiclock
a.m. on the 23rd day of September, 2010, at the District Courthouse
in Basin, Wyoming, for the purpose of hearing the Petition of Greybull
Valley Irrigation District for authority to execute agreements with the
Wyoming Water Development Commission and secure financing of up
to $476,000.00 for Phase I and Phase II of the design of the Lower
Sunshine Dam hydroelectric facility (the iProjectf) and authorizing the
District to levy an assessment at such time as payments are required
to be made for repayment of the sums advanced by the Wyoming
Water Development Commission for Phase I of the Project and, if
deemed appropriate, Phase II of the Project; and further requesting the
Court to authorize the Greybull Valley Irrigation District to pursue the
financing, design and construction of the Project and ultimate sale of
electrical power. The general description of the proposed works will be
a hydroelectric facility with turbines to generate electric powers situate
at the outlet works of the Lower Sunshine Dam. The description of the
lands that may be affected by the Petition include all lands situate within
the Greybull Valley Irrigation District. The complete legal description of
the Greybull Valley Irrigation District is attached to the Petition on file at
the District Courthouse in Basin, Wyoming.
All persons interested in the matter must appear at the time and place
set for the hearing and any person having an objection to the Petition
must file their objection in writing not less than five (5) days prior to the
date set for hearing• The objection must clearly specify the grounds of
the objection and be filed in the office of the Clerk of Court wherein the
report is filed. Any person objecting shall appear and show cause, if
any they have, why said irrigation district should not proceed with plans
and specifications for the planning, design, finance, construction and
work incidental thereto, necessary and required for the development,
distribution and sale of hydroelectric energy and power•
The Board of Commissioners believes that all lands within the Greybull
Valley Irrigation District will be benefitted by this Project and no lands will
be damaged. The estimated assessment to repay the maximum costs
allowable for Phase I design of the Project (not to exceed $150,000.00
for each of the separate storage reservoirs is as follows:
Upper Sunshine Reservoir Project: 50,166 acre feet will be
assessed in the amount of $0.0675 per acre foot of storage
capacity;
Lower Sunshine Reservoir Project: 53,379 acre feet will be
assessed in the amount of $0.0675 per acre foot of storage
capacity;
Greybull Valley Dam and Reservoir: 30,006 acre feet will
be assessed in the amount of $0 per acre foot of storage
capacity.
If Phase I of the Project is determined to be positive, Greybull Valley
Irrigation District intends to proceed with Phase II of the design of the
Project, which will include design and engineering to complete the
construction, which costs to be incurred by Grll Valley'ftrl'atlen
District will not exceed the balance of the tota# dppropriated design
funds, being $476,000.00, less the Phase I design costs which will not
exceed $150,000.00. The estimated maximum Phase II design costs
and estimated assessment, if necessary, to pay the Phase II design
costs of the Project for each of the separate storage reservoirs, is as
follows (using $326,000.00 to calculate the estimated assessment):
Upper Sunshine Reservoir Project: 50,166 acre feet will be
assessed in the amount of $0.147 per acre foot of storage
capacity;
Lower Sunshine Reservoir Project: 53,379 acre feet will be
assessed in the amount of $0.147 per acre foot of storage
capacity;
Greybull Valley Dam and Reservoir: 30,006 acre feet will
be assessed in the amount of $0 per acre foot of storage
capacity.
