-2- <br />many of the reservoir levels in the basin are already full, or nearly full. Pages 9 and 10 show that <br />reservoir storage for Colorado below Kersey are nearly full, and a:re likely to fill. Similarly, pages <br />11 and 12 show that reservoir storage for Colorado above Kersey .are also already full, or nearly full. <br />Snow Pack <br />Statewide snow pack for Colarado as of April 17, 2007 is shown on page 13.
