State Water Laws, Policies, and Administration <br /> Republican River Compact, 1942 <br /> Colorado, Kansas, and Nebraska with the consent of the United States <br /> Congress, negotiated this compact to divide the waters of the Republican River <br /> and its tributaries. <br /> The compact specified the computed average annual virgin water supply in <br /> the various tributaries and mainstream of the Republican River on which is based <br /> the allocation of water to the three states. Should the future computed virgin flow <br /> vary more than 10 percent from the average, allocations will be adjusted according <br /> to the relative proportion that annual computed flow bears to the average computed <br /> flows. <br /> The State of Colorado is allocated 54,100 acre-feet of water annually based <br /> on the average computed virgin flow from the following streams and in specified <br /> amounts: <br /> North Fork of the Republican River 10,000 acre-feet <br /> Arikaree River 15,400 acre-feet <br /> South Fork of the Republican River 25,400 acre-feet <br /> Beaver Creek 3,300 acre-feet <br /> Frenchman Creek Entire flow in Colorado <br /> Red Willow Creek Entire flow in Colorado <br /> Upper Colorado River Basin Compact, 1948 <br /> This compact between the States of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, <br /> and Wyoming, with the consent of the United States Congress, apportions waters <br /> of the Upper Colorado River Basin which had been allocated to the Upper Basin <br /> states by the Colorado River Compact of 1922. <br /> Of the Upper Basin allocations, the State of Arizona was allocated <br /> 50,000 acre-feet, and the other states were allocated the following percentages <br /> of the remainer: <br /> Colorado 51. 75 percent <br /> New Mexico 11.25 percent <br /> Utah 23.00 percent <br /> Wyoming 14.00 percent <br /> 2. 17 <br />
