During this time,Devils Lake, a closed basin lake, has risen 25 feet, consuming land, destroying homes, andimpacting vital infrastructure. Currently, six miles of the city's 40-year-old water transmissionline, including numerous gate valves, air relief valves and blow-off discharges, is covered by therising waters ofDevils Lake. If a failure in the line were to occur, it would be almost impossibleto make repairs, and the city would be left without a water supply. The funding I am requesting

would be used to reroute the transmission line around the lake to ensure a reliable water supplyto the city. I certify that I do not have any financial interest in this project.
