Soldier, Dixon, and Spring Canyon Dams and Satanka Dike close the remairiing <br />gaps. An outlet at Soldier Canyon Dam supplies water to the City of Fort Collins, three rural domestic <br />water districts, Colorado State University, and the Dixon Feeder Canal for the irrigated area cut off from <br />its original water supply by the reservoir. The principal outlet from Horsetooth Reservoir is through <br />Horsetooth Dam into the Charles Hansen Supply Canal. This canal delivers water to a chute discharging <br />into the Cache la Poudre River and to a siphon crossing the river to supply the Windsor Reservoir and <br />Canal Company. A turnout from the Supply Canal supplies the City of Greeley municipal water works. <br />Water is delivered to the river to replace, by exchange, that water diverted upstream to the North Poudre <br />Supply Canal, which conveys it to the North Poudre Irrigation Company System. <br /> <br />5 <br />
