I will fax you the info they proYided. <br />In short, the additions are as follows <br /> <br />1. South Platte - 2new dams adding 9,801 AF <br />2. Arkansas - 3 new dams adding 781 AF <br />3. San Juan - 1 new dam adding 1,025 AF <br />4. Gunnison - 1 new dam adding 920 AF <br />5. Colorado - 2 new dams adding 14 AF <br /> <br />ObYiously there has been yery little new construction of any significance in the last almost 3-years. Thus, you can <br />probably use the existing storage yalues. I would highly recommend that "storage" be "Potential Storage" and <br />according to a representative sample of reservoir storage statewide done by the NRCS as of October 1. <br /> <br />1 . Reservoir Storage in the South Platte is 79% of Ayerage <br />2. Reservoir Storage in the Arkansas is 52% of Average <br />3. Reservoir storage in the Rio Grande is 35% of Ayerage <br />4. Reservoir storage in the San Juan\Dolores is 63% of Ayerage <br />5. Reservoir storage in the Gunnison is 71 % of Ayerage <br />6. Reservoir storage in the Colorado Mainstem is 93% of Ayerage <br />7. Reservoir storage in the Yampa\White is 102% of Average <br /> <br />Thus, you can see that conditions are still very dry for the most part and even in the South Platte which recovered <br />during the March.Blizzard drew harder on storage than normal. <br /> <br />I'll send compact info in the morning.
