within the model. Several diversions from the San Juan and Animas rivers that are physically located <br />in New Mexico have been included in the San Juan Model. These provide water for large irrigation <br />projects in New Mexico and two power plants downstream of Navaj o Reservoir. <br />The San Juan model includes 14 explicitly modeled reservoirs as well as 10 aggregated reservoirs <br />and 7 aggregated stock ponds. The explicitly modeled reservoirs are distributed geographically as <br />follows: four in the San Miguel basin (Gurley, Miramonte, Trout Lake, and Lake Hope), four in the <br />Dolores basin (Groundhog, McPhee, Summit and Narraguinnep), and five in the San Juan basin <br />(Jackson Gulch, Cascade, Vallecito, Lemon, Navajo, and Ridges Basin). The smallest two are Lake <br />Hope and Trout Lake with storage volumes of 2,315 and 3,422 acre-feet, respectively. The largest is <br />Navajo Reservoir with storage of over 1.7 million acre-feet. Navajo Reservoir lies mostly outside of <br />the State of Colorado, but was included in the model because of its impact on water distribution <br />within the San Juan and Colorado River basins. <br />San Juan & Dolores River Basin Information 1-3 <br />
