Nunn soils are on terraces, alluvial fans, and smooth plains. Slopes are 0 to 3 <br />percent. Nunn soils are similar to the Altvan and Dacono soils and are near the Colombo, <br />Fort Collins, Haverson, and Weld soils. Altvan and Dacono soils have a sand and gravel C <br />horizon at a depth of 20 to 40 inches. Colombo and Haverson soils lack a B horizon. Fort <br />Collins soils are less than 35 percent clay in the B horizon. Weld soils have an abrupt <br />textural boundary between the A and B horizons. <br /> <br />Crops yields per acre in this series are typically: 3.5 to 5.5 tons of hay; 20 to 24 tons of <br />beets; 2400 to 2700 pounds of dry pinto beans; and, 80 to 180 bushels of corn. <br /> <br />LAND OWNERSlllP <br /> <br />The land in the project service is primarily private farms, ranches, and some individual home <br />sites. All of the agricultural land serviced by the Company is privately owned. <br /> <br />WATER RIGHTS <br /> <br />A summary of the storage decrees for all the storage reservoirs owned by the WRCC, including <br />Reservoir No.8, are shown in Table 1. Windsor Reservoir No.8 has a storage decree of 15,381 <br />acre-feet. Current storage capacity, as determined by a topographic survey conducted in 2000, <br />indicates the storage capacity at 12,700 acre-feet due to siltation of the reservoir. The WRCC is <br />interested in recovering at least a portion of the lost storage of approximately 2,600 acre-feet. <br /> <br />/ <br /> <br />Windsor Reservoir & Canal Feasibility Study <br /> <br />Page 4 <br />
