<br />Mr. M. C. Hinderlider,
<br />State Engineer,
<br />Denver, Colorado.
<br />
<br />Dsar Mr. Hinderlider:
<br />
<br />I am enclosing herswith our computations with respect to the administration
<br />of the Caddoa Dam Stipulation for the month of May. These consist of:
<br />
<br />State Line Deliveries
<br />Divsrsions of Colorado Ditches below Caddoa
<br />Diversions above Caddoe Rese~oir in excess of the "status quo" v
<br />of Priorities, and
<br />Flow into Reservoir.
<br />
<br />We have tabulated the flow into Caddoa Reservoir for the purpose of-determining
<br />when or what diversions above were made in excess of the "status quo" of .priorities.
<br />These figures should, of course, be considered as preliminary and subject to possible
<br />revision. I would appreciate it if you would compare these with your computations,
<br />and if there are differences, give us the rsason for such differences as well as your
<br />computations of the amounts.
<br />
<br />t,
<br />
<br />On the basis of thess ca.lm1.lations, Statellne deliveries for May amounted to
<br />1.2,762 acre feet, and diversions of Colorado Ditches below Caddoa amounted to 23,675 .
<br />acre feet. Tbe diversions above Caddoa in excess of the regular order of priority
<br />alIlQUIlted to 28,744 acre feet. During the sallle period, 9,071 acre feet of water
<br />passed into the Reservoir. Whether I am correct or not, I have assumed that this
<br />amount in part satisfied diversions below so that the amount of water exchanged be-
<br />t~een the upper and lower ditches would be the difference or 19,673 acre feet, which
<br />would be the amount exchanged "out of surplus" or "out of anticipated surplus" under
<br />the provisions of Section 5 of the Stipulation.
<br />
<br />on June l, I wired you requesting the delivery at the State Line of 210 c.f.s.
<br />for the period June 1 to ~o. It is here~ requested that the delivery of 210 c.f.s.,
<br />to be charged to Kansas summer quota of 52,000 acre feet, be continued also for the
<br />period June II to June 30. For the month, this will amount to 1.2,495 acre feet or
<br />almost exactly the 1.2.500 acre feet we are expecting on tbatscaount for June.
<br />
<br />Inasmuch es Colorado has diverted by exchange out of an asswned surplus an:B.IllO\mt
<br />apparently in excess of 20,000 acre feet since the Stipul~tion became effective, I
<br />feel tbat Kansas shouJ..d call for some portion of its accrued credits in the surplus
<br />_tel' account to be delivered during the crurrent month. Consequently, I WlI hereb;r
<br />requesting the delivery of 300 c.f.s. on that account for the period June II to 3D,
<br />tll'inging the total requested amount up to 510 c.f.s. for June II to 30, inclusive.
