jo i nt-use poo 1 unt i 1 fu 11 and then stored in Mode 1
reservoir storage right. Model reservoir storage
right content transferred to joint-use pool at end
of October (subject to space availability).
Compares the effect of Trinidad Project operation
to that of historical Model reservoir operation.

Same as 5H except compares the effect of Trinidad
PrOject operation to that of rehabi 1 itated Model
reservoir operation.

Operational criteria the same as the baseline study
except headgate i rri gat i on di vers ions were assumed
to be greater than the computed ideal requirement.
Runs were made for 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5 and 1.0 foot
per acre of excess diversion. The additional water
for diversion was assumed to have occurred during
years when Trinidad Reservoir inflow was above
average for the 1925-1957 period. The return flow
from the additional diversion above ideal require-
ment was assumed to be 60 percent. Results of each
run compares the effect of Trinidad Project opera-
tion to that of historical Model reservoir opera-
tion.

Operational criteria the same as 5H except headga-
te irrigation diversions were assumed to exceed
the computed ideal requi rements. Runs were made
for 0.1,0.2 and 0.3 foot per acre of excess diver-
sion. The additional diversion was assumed to have
occurred during years when inflow to Trinidad
Reservoir was above average for the 1925-1957
period. Return f1 ow from the increment di vers i on
above idea 1 was assumed to return at a rate of 60
percent in the fo 11 owi ng month of di vers i on.
Results of each run compares the effect of
Trinidad Project operation to that of historical
Model reservoir operation.

Same as 1HO.1 thru 1H1.0 described above except
effect of Trinidad Project operation is compared to
that of rehabilitated Model reservoir operation.

Same as 5HO.1 thru 5HO.3 described above except
effect of Trinidad Project operation is compared to
that of rehabilitated Model reservoir operation.

All operational criteria similar to baseline study
except the maximum joi nt-use pool is, 39,000 acre-
feet rather than the previous 19,500 acre-feet.
Compares the effect of Tri n i dad Project operat i on
to that of historical Model reservoir operation.

Same as 1H39 except compares the effect of Trinidad
Project operation to that of rehabi 1 itated Model
reservoir operation.
