<br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />Summer Storage Season <br /> <br />The proposed plan of operation for the summer storage season is designed <br />to retain the flexibility of use of the Keesee Ditch water rights while operating <br />within the framework of the John Martin Reservoir Operating Agreement and <br />the historical pattern of river depletions. The diversions in a given month or <br />summer season may fluctuate according to the demands of the new use provided <br />that monthly and seasonal limits, and long-term historical averages are not <br />exceeded. Return flow releases based on the current and preceeding summer <br />season diversions will limit the river depletions to historical patterns and prevent <br />injury to downstream water users. <br /> <br />During the summer storage season, there are two basic operating conditions <br />for John Martin Reservoir. The first condition is when conservation storage <br />is taking place. At this time all inflows accrue to the Conservation Pool and <br />any releases must be made from agreement accounts. The second condition <br />occurs whenever reservoir inflows are being released through the dam. Under <br />this second condition, an individual water user may be taking either river water <br />or account water (or a combination of both), depending on the priority conditions <br />in effect for that water right. The conditions under which a District 67 is in <br />priority may be subject to varying operating agreements which are negotiated <br />each year as between water users above and below John Martin Reservoir. The <br />following plan for making Keesee Ditch diversions is designed to remain flexible <br />to accommodate changes in the John Martin Reservoir Operating Agreement. <br /> <br />Diversions into the Keesee Account <br /> <br />The Keesee Ditch will continue to benefit from its proportionate share of <br />conservation storage as any other District 67 ditch. Storage accounts for winter <br />and summer stored water, as well as any carryover or other types of conservation <br />water, will be maintained for the Keesee Ditch under the applicable John Martin <br />Reservoir Operating Agreement. Whenever a diversion request requires release <br />of water from these accounts, releases shall be accounted for in the same manner <br />as if the diversion were to be made at the ditch headgate. The appropriate transit <br />loss would b.e charged to the account based on the current river conditions and <br />the river distance to the Keesee headgate. The actual release to the river would <br />include this transit loss amount plus the calculated return flow obligation (plus <br />transit losses) as discussed in the following section. <br /> <br />-11- <br />
