I t wi i I be noted that we also propose <br />varyiog the percentage loss with the magnitude of the reser- <br />voir release as well as the magnitude of the natural river <br />flow at Canon City. At the present time a flat percentage <br />figure is used for al I condi tions, <br /> <br />The U. S. Geological Survey performed a major seepage <br />rur during the 5ummer of 1970, which was, in effect, a <br />Herculean task of making actual inflow-outflow measurements <br />at hundreds of po;nts. This basic data will provide very <br />significant input to future travel time - .tran5it loss studies. <br />The U.S.G.S, data was reviewed in a general way to determine <br />whether or not this 1970 measurement program would be appli- <br />cable to this study and report. I t was concluded that the form <br />of the U.S.G.S. seepage run results was such that it was not <br />directly applicable for use in this report. We understand <br />that a verbal report wi 11 be made by the U.S.G.S. in 1971. <br /> <br />....,. <br /> <br />This ir.vest;gation has been a most challenging one and <br />of great ir,terest to us as hydrologists involved in the matter <br />of administration of waters in the State of Colorado. The ex- <br />cellent cooperation, providing of data and general help by <br />members of the staff of your office is very much appreciated. <br />Mr. Rudy Styduha" Divisional Engineer, and his staff provided <br />unselfishly of their time to help make our time in the field <br />more successful. We have been impressed with the loyalty and <br />dedication of the members of your organization to the better- <br />ment of water administration procedures for the benefit of <br />the people of the State of Colorado. <br /> <br />You rs ve ry t ru I y, <br /> <br />WRIGHT WATER ENGINEERS <br /> <br />KRW: mS <br /> <br />By /(..~~'Cf <br />Kenneth R.
