This requirement is based on the fact that the depletions caused by the operations <br />covered by these plans are estimated to produce depletions to usable Stateline flow during some <br />months of the year. This letter reports the monthly estimated depletions to usable Stateline flow <br />caused by the operations covered by each plan and accounts for the replacement of these <br />estimated depletions using the credits obtained from the delivery of totally consumable water <br />from the Offset Account to Kansas_ <br /> <br />The following table shows the estimated depletions for each of the SWSPs which the Colorado <br />State Engineer has required be replaced using water delivered to the Offset Account. <br /> <br /> <br />Monlh Brad Cummings Carder, Inc Midwestern Fanns <br /> Irrigation Gravel Pit Gravel Pit <br />April 14 1.69 0 <br />May 41 2.15 3.756 <br />June . 62 2.51 3.945 <br />July 72 1.95 4.083 <br />August 93 1.68 4.393 <br />September 112 1.47 4.948 <br />Oclober 108 1.23 6.147 <br />TOTAL 502 12.68 27.272 <br />
