Florida Canal Diversion Structure Rehabilitation Project

In 2024, WWE served as water resources engineer on the rehabilitation of the Florida Canal Diversion Structure on the Florida River near Durango. The structure, owned by the Florida Consolidated Ditch Company (FCDC), was deteriorating from age and in need of improvements. The FCDC collaborated with the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB), The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW), and the landowner on this multi-purpose project to retrofit and stabilize the historical structure to improve safety and aquatic habitat.
