<br />and that diversion records of ditches in Colorado, used ~ Kansas, were tak-
<br />en from tabulations appearing in a Colorado report known as the "Patterson
<br />Plan," for opero,ting ths irrigation pool in Caddoa Reservoir, and administer-
<br />ing rights in the Arkansr,s River affected by such reservoir operations, in
<br />aocordanoe with the Opinion of the United States Supreme Court entered Dec-
<br />ember 6,'1943 in the case of Colorado and Kansas, after which Opinion, - all

<br />6. Since the plan of reservoir operation assumed in the Kansas-"Caddoa
<br />Reservoir Studies" differs from operation plans heretofore prepared by Colo-
<br />rado, and since the terms used and results calculated and'reported by Kansas
<br />are also different, it may facilitate this discussion to summarize oertain
<br />strsamflow and diversion records, for the study period 1908-1938 used by
<br />Kansas. Some of the basic data appearing in the follavling tabulation appear
<br />to have been used by Kansas. All the rsferenoe data are available from the
<br />same general souroes of information outlined in the preceding parngraph, -
<br />particularly Colorado Exhibits 204-222, introduoed by Colorado in the above
<br />mentioned case.
