S. <br />Forest Service proposed 142,230 acres. <br /> <br />* * * * * <br /> <br />Pueblo Water Board and Colorado Springs City Council approved an <br />agreement under which the cities will purchase 25,200 acre-feet of annual <br />storage in Twin Lakes from the Crowley County Land & Development Co. and <br />from several individual owners banded together as the "proxy Group". The <br />water is to be split equally between the two cities at a total cost of <br />$24,900,000. The two cities approved the purchase of shares of stock at <br />a cost of $1,075 per share, each of which entitles the owner to 1.1 acre- <br />foot of water per year. The Twin Lakes system which diverts water from <br />the Upper Roaring Fork River on the Western Slope into Twin Lakes <br />Reservoir yields about 50,000 acre-feet annually. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />t> <br /> <br />BULK RATE <br />U.
