<br />Notes:
<br />(1) Historic calendar year data from Bureau of Reclamation. Average storage values are based on the average of the
<br />end-of-year storage amounts for the year indicated and for the previous year. Storage amounts include storage in all
<br />CRSP units, including Lake Powell, Flaming Gorge Reservoir, Navajo Reservoir and the Aspinall Unit (Blue Mesa,
<br />Morrow Point and Crystal reservoirs).
<br />(2) CRSP shared evaporation includes lake evaporation for Lake Powell, Flaming Gorge Reservoir and the Aspinall Unit
<br />reservoirs, and is shared between the Upper Division States in proportions to their Upper Colorado River Basin
<br />Compact Article lII(a) apportionments, CRSP shared evaporation is approximately 10,000 af at zero live CRSP
<br />storage (5,000 af based on the regression analyses) and approximately 130,000 af if storage in all CRSP reservoirs
<br />were at the top of the inactive pools (133,000 af based on the regression analysis). Lake evaporation for Navajo
<br />Reservoir is not included in CRSP shared evaporation.
<br />(3) Data for the period 1968-2004 were used in the regression analyses. Data prior to 1968 do not reflect a normal
<br />distribution of storage between CRSP unit reservoirs under future operational conditions (for example, NavajO Reservoir
<br />storage remained below the top of the inactive pool required for operation of the NavajO Indian Irrigation Project diversion
<br />from 1962 when it began storing water until 1968, and Morrow Point Reservoir began operation in 1968). For the period
<br />1968-1977, the historic average end-of-year CRSP storage and annual CRSP evaporation amount were increased to
<br />reflect the average storage of 15,670 af and average evaporation amount of 340 af occurring at Crystal Reservoir after its
<br />initial filling in 1978.
