Animas River, where <br />the city's water rights are 1..s5 reliable, th.. situation could be even worse. <br />In fact. during years of water shortage the Indian tribes could well be the <br />only major water users on numerous streams and rivers in the San Juan River <br />Basin. After years of planning, the Animas-La Plata Project is the most <br />feasible solution to eliminating competition between the Indian Tribes and <br />non-Indian water uSers. <br /> <br />PROJECT FEATURES <br /> <br />DA.'lS: <br />Height above streambed (feet) <br />Crest length (feet) <br />Diversion capacity (cubic <br />feet per second) <br /> <br />RESERVOIRS: <br />Capacity (acre-feet) <br />Active <br />Inactive <br />Dead <br />Total <br />Water surface area (acres) <br />Total pool <br />Inactive pool <br /> <br />PUMPING PLA1ITS: <br /> <br />Maximum <br />11ft <br />(feet) <br /> <br />STATISTICS <br /> <br />Ridges <br />Ba si n <br /> <br />Southern <br />'Cte <br /> <br />Southern <br />.
