Bureau and Mr. Sloan and Mr. Sarchet. Can we <br />deliver water to these three ditches ?" <br />MR. KNIGHTS: "Dave, that's in effect what I was saying. <br />That until you select a site you don't know what <br />area to say will be benefited so that you can form <br />a repayment entity." <br />MR. D. MILLER: "Let me ask ." <br />MR. KNIGHTS: "i'm just saying the same thing that you're <br />saying in different words." <br />MR. D. MILLER: "Let me ask the question then, can you deliver <br />water to the Bijou, the Henrylynn and the River- <br />side out of both sites? That's what they have to <br />know before they can decide." <br />MR. KNIGHTS: "Water can be delivered to the Henrylynn on <br />exchange out of either. Water can only be deliv- <br />ered directly out of the Weld County site to the <br />Bijou and the Riverside but water can be delivered <br />to the Bijou and the Riverside by exchange out of <br />the Narrows. Does that answer you ?" <br />MR. D. MILLER: "That answers the question to me. I'm not <br />sure it answers to Cecil who speaks for the <br />Morgan County people. Can you be convinced of <br />this or are you convinced of this ?" <br />MR. OSBORNE: "This is the whole point that enters into <br />that. The Riverside and the Bijou systems are <br />relatively large systems. In fact with the excep- <br />tion of the North Sterling they are the largest <br />systems in the South Platte River. Up in the <br />Denver area here there are bunches of systems <br />organized together. Now, their requirement, dur- <br />ing those summer months, is in the neighborhood <br />of around 700 second feet and I have right here <br />the U.S.G.S. report for 1940. I've also got one <br />for 1949 here, which was a good year and a poor <br />year, and we find we only have 80 or 90 second <br />feet. That's the total flow at the point of <br />diversion. So you'd be in a poor position to try <br />to get 600 or 700 feet out of a little 80 or 90. <br />Incidentally the Bijou people already have a <br />-34- <br />
