Torrington, Wyoming: meals for crews replacing a collapsed canal tunnel
A tunnel on the Gering-Fort Laramie Canal, about a mile south of Fort Laramie, collapsed in July 2019 and cut irrigation water to more than 100,000 acres in Wyoming and Nebraska. Replacement work began with an October 2025 groundbreaking at the Goshen Irrigation District office in Torrington.
Units for Torrington are dispatched from the Cheyenne warehouse, about 90 miles away. The rental team confirms the route and timing.
The tunnel in plain numbers
Cowboy State Daily reported in March 2026 that the Bureau of Reclamation built the tunnel in 1917, that it collapsed on July 17, 2019, and that the canal runs about 135 miles, 86 of them in Wyoming, through three tunnels of similar age.
A University of Nebraska release lists the sequence: Tunnel No. 2 excavation and replacement in fall 2026 and winter 2027 with a purpose-built boring machine, Tunnel No. 1 the following year, and completion in spring 2028.
Why the schedule matters for meals
Hageman Announces Federal Funding To Fix Collapsed Goshen County Irrigation Tunnel ↗
Cowboy State Daily, March 18, 2026
A federal appropriation will help rebuild the Fort Laramie tunnels on the Gering-Fort Laramie Canal, which collapsed in July 2019 and left more than 100,000 acres without irrigation water. Crews broke ground in October 2025, with more repairs set from autumn 2026 into 2028.
For a kitchen rental: If tunnel crews or support staff need hot meals during winter excavation, ask whether a temporary kitchen near the work site could be scheduled around access and weather.
Winter excavation means short days and crews who may not want a long drive to town. The Torrington Telegram of May 15, 2026 reported crews actively rebuilding the tunnels.
If a contractor or volunteer effort wants hot food at the site, a kitchen trailer is one option to price. Ask the irrigation district which access roads stay open in snow.
Permit and inspection path
- Health Goshen County is not among the counties the state agriculture page lists for local health departments, so ask its Consumer Health Services section which permit fits. The page caps temporary permits at 14 consecutive days.
- Fire Confirm kitchen, propane and hood requirements with the local fire authority; the state fire marshal's page does not address mobile units.
- Land Ask the landowner or irrigation district who approves a trailer on the pad.
