Within the <br />11.4 mile length of the South Canal irrigation waters are <br />diverted to a number of users. A map of the South Canal and <br />tunnel is shown on Plate A-l. The source of water for the <br /> <br />canal and tunnel is the Gunnison River. <br /> <br />Under the present operating conditions irrigation flows are <br />diverted from the Gunnison River into the tunnel and South <br />Canal by a low diversion dam located on the Gunnison River. <br />Water storage for the project is allocated from the Taylor <br />Park Reservoir, although under a temporary agreement water <br /> <br /> <br />has recently been obtained from the Blue Mesa Reservoir. <br /> <br /> <br />The total drainage area upstream of the diversion into the <br /> <br /> <br />Gunnison Tunnel is approximately 3965 square miles. <br /> <br />B.
