Rocky Ridge Lake (WSSC Reservoir No. 1) (ID 0303736) <br />BZackHollow Reservoir (ID 0303744) <br />Long Pond (WSSC Reservoir No. S) (ID 0303742) <br />• WSSC Reservoir No. 3 (ID 0303737) <br />• WSSC Reservoir No. 4 (ID 0303739) <br />• Curtis Lake (ID 0303735) <br />Kluver Reservoir (ID 0303740) <br />Richard Lake (WSSC Reservoir No. 6) (ID 0303741) <br />Lindenmeir Lake (ID 0303743) <br />All nine reservoirs under the WSSC Plains Reservoir System are filled through the Larimer <br />County Canal. Rocky Ridge Lake, Kluver Reservoir, WSSC Reservoirs No. 3 and 4, and Black <br />Hollow Reservoir release stored water back to the Larimer County Canal. Curtis Lake and <br />Richard Lake release water to the Larimer Weld Irrigation Canal through Long Pond. <br />Lindenmeier Lake releases water directly to the Cache la Poudre River. WSSC plains reservoirs <br />are used for storage of company water, equalization throughout the WSSC System, and exchange <br />with other entities in the Water District. <br />WATER RIGHTS <br />Direct flow and storage water rights for the key structures discussed herein are presented in the <br />following section. In addition to direct flow and storage water rights, WSSC owns units of C-BT <br />water and 6.25 shares of Jackson Ditch Company water. Some private shareholders along the <br />System individually own C-BT shares which can be delivered through the WSSC System and the <br />Pierce and Collins Laterals. <br />1) WSSC Mountain System <br />Long Draw Reservoir <br />Long Draw Reservoir's total decreed volume is 10,801 acre-feet absolute. A summary of the <br />storage water rights associated with Long Draw Reservoir is presented in Table 3. The decreed <br />uses associated with these water rights include irrigation, municipal, industrial, domestic, <br />recreation, fishery and all beneficial uses. The 6,600 acre-foot water right, resulting from the <br />enlargement of Long Draw Reservoir, is fully reusable per decree amendments effectuated in the <br />Reuse Plan with Platte River Power Authority (PRPA), as discussed in the Operational <br />Information Section. WSSC representatives identified the source for Long Draw Reservoir <br />water rights as La Poudre Pass Creek, not Long Draw Creek, as is listed in the HydroBase water <br />rights tabulation. <br />Table 3 <br />Storage Water Rights for Long Draw Reservoir <br />Source Appropriation Adjudication Administration Decreed Amount Absolute <br /> Date Date No. (ac-ft) <br />Long Draw 6/5/1922 12/18/1945 26453.00000 4 <br />201 <br />Creek , <br />Long Draw <br />Creek g/31/1965 12/31/1977 46386.42246 6,600 <br />Colorado Water Rights Tabulation <br />WaterSupply&Storage Memo.doc <br />13 of 21 <br />
