has a storage capacity of approximately 184,000 acre -feet, of which only 30,700 acre -feet <br />are available for irrigation. <br />USBR's Glendo Unit consists of Glendo Dam and Reservoir, the Fremont Canyon Power <br />Plant, and Gray Reef Dam and its regulating reservoir. Glendo Reservoir has a total <br />storage capacity of 789,400 acre -feet. <br />Table 2.2 (USDOI, 1983) lists the storage reservoirs in the Platte River basin with storage <br />capacities exceeding 5,000 acre -feet. The combined storage capacity of these reservoirs is <br />approximately 7,600,000 acre -feet. Of this amount, 47 percent is in Wyoming, 30 percent <br />is in Colorado, and 23 percent is in Nebraska. Figure 2.7, from the same report, shows a <br />graph of the cumulative reservoir storage as it increased over time. <br />r <br />P_j <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
