<br /> <br />were made to Cochiti, with the remainder of SJ-C deliveries to Cochiti occurring in <br />January 1999, The Cochiti Lake summary is shown in Table 11 B (page 12). <br /> <br />Jemez Canvon Reservoir <br />Jemez Canyon Dam and Reservoir is a U.S, Corps of Engineers facility, Arrangements <br />were made to replace sediment pool evaporative losses during 1997, Since 1991, up <br />to 5,500 AF (less 69 AF of transportation losses) of City of Albuquerque SJ-C water <br />in Abiquiu Reservoir has been used to replace sediment deposition and evaporative <br />losses in Jemez Canyon Reservoir. Such water is provided by contract between the <br />City of Albuquerque and the New Mexico Interstate Stream Commission, dated <br />February 21, 1986 and amended May 16, 1991. <br /> <br />In 1998, the City of Albuquerque, in an agreement with the New Mexico Interstate <br />Stream Commission, again offered an additional 1,500 AF to help fill the sediment <br />space, <br /> <br />A total of 5,570 AF was released from Abiquiu from April, May and June, .It suffered <br />70 AF of transportation losses. Due to construction activity at Abiquiu, there were <br />limited releases from November 1, 1998 through April 1, 1999, Table 10 (page 10) <br />shows the SJ-C balance for Jemez Canyon Reservoir and Table 11 C (page 13) shows <br />the reservoir summary for 1999, <br /> <br />Reclamation had estimated the 1990 - 1998 accumulated sediment inflow into Jemez <br />Reservoir at 5,107 AF, A Corps of Engineers' 1998 survey determined the actual <br />amount of sediment that had accumulated in Jemez between 1990 - .1998 to be <br />3,060 AF, The Corps of .Engineers' survey became effective as of Dec:ember31, <br />1998. As such, the 1998 end of year values for both accumulated sediment and Rio <br />Grande content were adjusted accordingly in Table 11 C. <br /> <br />Eleohant Butte Reservoir <br />The Sierra Wine Growers Association pumped 98 AF from .Elephant Butte Reservoir <br />during 1999, The total affect of this 98 AF was offset by a release of1 00 AF from <br />the City.of Albuquerque pool in Abiquiu during 1999, An additional release of 96 AF <br />was released from the City of Albuquerque Pool during 1999 to offset the affect of <br />the pumping of 95 AF from Elephant Butte Reservoir by the Sierra Wine Growers <br />Association during 1998, A total release of 194 AF was made in 1999, <br /> <br />See footnote on the Elephant Butte Present Condition table (page 40) for <br />transportation loss details, <br /> <br />vi <br />
