<br />-! <br /> <br />Utah randomized experimentS with liquid propane involved such a gauge configuration. A <br />similar experiment could also be conducted in Colorado6. <br /> <br />Acknowledgements. This work was pursuant to a memorandum of agreement between <br />the Southwestern Water Conservation District of Durango, CO, and the United States Bureau of <br />Reclamation, dated 14 June 2006. Funding was provided by the Six Agency Committee of <br />California, the Central Arizona Water Conservation District, and the Southern Nevada Water <br />Authority, as part of a trial extension of the San Juan Mountains weather modification program <br />(agreement of March 7, 2006). The author expresses his thanks to Larry and Mike Hjermstad of <br />Western Weather Consultants for provision of seeding and other data. Tom Ryan of the <br />Metropolitan Water District of Southern California and Joe Busto of the Colorado Water <br />Conservation Board made this evaluation possible by coordinating the cooperation of the <br />agencies involved. Ra Aman ably performed the computer programming for this analysis. <br /> <br />v. REFERENCES <br /> <br />1 Dennis, A.S., 1980: Weather Modification by Cloud Seeding.
