<br />.' <br /> <br />I. From the Missouri River at Fort Randall, South Dakota, to Bonny Reservoir <br />in Colorado. <br /> <br />2. From the Missouri River near St. Joseph, Missouri, to terminal storage on <br />the Arkansas River near Dodge City, Kansas. <br /> <br />3. From the White, Arkansas, Ouachita and Red Rivers in Arkansas, and the <br /> <br /> <br />Sulfur and Sabine Rivers in Texas, to terminal storage on the Canadian <br /> <br /> <br />River near Canadian, Texas. <br /> <br />4. From the White, Arkansas, Ouachita and Red Rivers in Arkansas, and the <br /> <br />Sulfur and Sabine Rivers in Texas, to terminal storage at Blanco Canyon <br />near Crosby ton, Texas. <br /> <br />The total amount of water proposed for transfer in the four routes studied <br /> <br /> <br />ranged from 6.375 to 22.753 million acre-feet per year. The estimated <br /> <br /> <br />delivered cost of water in those schemes ranged from $226 to $434 an <br />acre-foot. <br /> <br />Even more ambitious proposals for international out-of-basin water transfers <br /> <br /> <br />have been proposed. Most of these were contemporaneous with the <br /> <br /> <br />interbasin/interstate/interregional transfers previously noted by Johnson. All <br /> <br /> <br />such proposals suggested importing water from Canadian river basins to, <br /> <br /> <br />various river basins in the United States and, in some cases, Mexico. <br /> <br /> <br />Several such proposals listed by Johnson were: <br /> <br />I . The Gram! Canal Plan (J 959), which proposed diverting rJvers tributary <br />to James Bay (Canada) to the Great Lakes and thence to other points <br />in the United States. <br /> <br />-10- <br />
