<br /> <br />- 3 - <br /> <br />1. ~ Mountain~. Near mouth of Troublesome Creek; capacity <br /> <br /> <br />84,000 acre feet; would require railroad and highway relocation. <br /> <br /> <br />(Source of information: Appendix D of Blue-South Platte Interim <br /> <br />Report). <br /> <br />2. Kremmling Site. Storage capacity, ili,ooo acre feet; height <br />of dam 16 feet. Railroad would not require extensive relocation. <br /> <br />3. Azure ~~. In canyon of Colorado River 11-1/2 miles be- <br /> <br /> <br />low lCremmling, 2 miles above Sheephorn Creek. Storage capacity, <br /> <br /> <br />26,000 acre feet with dam extending 100 feet above stream bed. (Data <br /> <br /> <br />from U.S.G.S. tvater Supply Paper 396 and D. & R. G. Profile). <br /> <br />4. Dotsero~. Dam 25 feet high about 2 miles below Dotsero. <br />Would provide a storage of 10,000 acre feet. Greater storage would <br />require relocation of railway. (U.S.G.S. quadrangle map). <br /> <br />. <br />5. Alkali Creek. On Alkali Creek north of liolcott; would re- <br /> <br /> <br />quire feeder canal from Eagle River Dam 200 feet high; would provide <br /> <br /> <br />25,000 acre feet storage. With dam 250 feet high a storage of 58,000 <br /> <br />acre feet could be produced. Feeder canal would be a major item <br />of cost. (Data from Bureau of Reclamation and U.S.G.S. Maps). <br /> <br />6.. Homestake Creek Site. Darn 1/4 mile above mouth of creek <br />and 200 feet high would provide about 69,000 acre feet of storage <br /> <br />space. Relocation of 3 miles of highway and 2 miles of transmission <br /> <br />line required. It is possible that 11,000 acre feet per annum could <br />be diverted from Eagle River to this watershed and that Homestake <br />
