<br />26th Annual Report <br /> <br />Colorado River Storage Project <br />and Participating Projects in <br />Fiscal Year 1982 <br /> <br /> <br />Future prOject water atop Durango areil mountains. <br /> <br />The Colorado River Storage Project (CRSP) is <br />a basinwide program of development and use <br />of water resources of the Upper Colorado <br />River, and is one of the most complex and <br />extensive fiver resources developments in the <br />world. <br /> <br />It takes the drainage area of the Upper Colo. <br />rado River Basin, encompassing parts of Wyo- <br />ming, Utah, Colorado, Anzona, and New <br />Mexico - about one-twelfth of the continental <br />area at the United States. CRSP storage units <br />(Glen Canyon Dam, Flaming Gorge Dam, <br />Navajo Dam, and the Wayne N. Aspinall Unit <br />dams) equalize the erratic flows of the <br />Colorado River and its main tributaries so that <br />water delivery commitments to the Lower <br />Basin States - California, Arizona, and <br />Nevada - can be met even in years of low <br />flow. <br /> <br />The remaining water in the Upper Basin can <br />then serve the needs of farmers, <br />municipalities, and industries. Delivery of this <br />water to consumers is accomplished through <br />the participating projects. <br /> <br />(cover photo) <br />Mountain stream flows - the beginning of <br />the cycle of lite for the Colorado River. <br /> <br /> <br />Rocky. tree.lined abutments flank Blue Mesa Dam <br /> <br />Contents <br /> <br />FY 82 in Review <br />Highlights. <br />Construction <br />Environmental <br />Salinity Control <br />Operations <br />Power Sales <br />Irrigation <br />Recreation <br />Social <br />Cultural <br />Fish and Wlldlite <br /> <br />Financial <br />Comparative Balance Sheet <br />Income and Expense Summary <br />Cash Receipts and Disposition <br /> <br />Allocation and Repayment <br />Allocation of Federal Investment <br />Estimated Project Costs <br />Estimated ProJecf Costs by Purpose <br />Estimated Repayment of Federal investment <br />prog ress of Repayment <br />Rate at Repayment. <br />Power Repayment Study <br />Exhibit - Historical and Projected Repayment at <br />Authorized Reimbursable Investment. <br /> <br />Map <br /> <br /> <br />Workman on one of Blue Mesa.s two generators <br /> <br />2 <br />4 <br />8 <br />9 <br />.... .10 <br />12 <br />.. .14 <br />. . . .16 <br />.18 <br />19 <br />20 <br /> <br />. .22 <br />.24 <br />. .25 <br /> <br />26 <br />28 <br />29 <br />. .30 <br />31 <br />32 <br />.34 <br /> <br />. .36 <br />39 <br />
