With an improved summer water supply and <br />an owortunity to store winter watGr for conversion to summer use it <br />is generally conceded that winter diversions are reduced. For this <br />study it is aSSUlllGd that wiater diversions by Kansas ditches with both <br />John lI.urtin ResGrvoir and Granada Reservoir in operation will be 50 pGr- <br />cGnt of historic divGrsions. This would appear reasonable after in- <br />spGction of Oolorado ditoh diversions in J"ater District #67 with John <br />Martin Reservoir in oporation where the winter diversions are now about <br />25 percent of historic diversions without John Martin Resorvoir. <br />Granada Reservoir will provide an opportunity to store winter irrigation <br />return flows. accruing below John Martin Reservoir and a bove the stato <br />line. <br /> <br />Su~lus State line. flows <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />-5- <br />
