- The ramp-up/down rate is 100 cfs/day all year, barring icing <br />conditions and summer weed growth and system malfunctions. <br />This ramp rate limitation is intended to avoid canal system damage <br />that could result in a loss of the cooling water supply to Gerald <br />Gentlemen power plant. <br />- The entire capacity is typically required for irrigation from July 1 <br />to September 15. <br />• Korty Diversion <br />- The maximum capacity of the diversion is 850 cfs all year, barring <br />icing conditions, summer weed growth and system malfunctions. <br />• Total NPPD Diversion <br />- The total diversion to NPPD can be no more than 1,900 cfs below <br />the confluence of the Keystone and Korty Diversions all year, <br />barring icing conditions, summer weed growth and system <br />malfunctions. <br />• NPPD North Platte Hydro <br />- The maximum capacity is 1,750 cfs. As the hydro discharge rate <br />increases to the maximum, a reduction in the storage level in Lake <br />Maloney is required due to the fact that the system has no by-pass <br />potential at the North Platte Hydro. When the outlet canal is <br />flowing at a high rate, additional space is necessary in Lake <br />Maloney to allow for the storage of the additional flow. The <br />maximum hydro discharge rate may also decrease as the storage <br />level in Lake Maloney is reduced, assuming inadequate <br />replacement inflows in the Sutherland Outlet Canal. <br />- The ramp-up rate is 200 cfs per day and there is no maximum <br />ramp-down rate, as long as adequate storage space exists in <br />Sutherland and Maloney Reservoirs for flows in the canals. <br />930wLE Page 12 of 58 January 29, 2008 <br />PRRIP - Draft Water Management Study, Phase I
