One of the Little Thompson Water District's goals is to maintain a ratio of +/- 1.5 shares of C-BT water per domestic water tap in order to provide for an adequate water supply during a 50% allocation water year (only 0.5 acre-feet of water are made available for each share of C-BT water owned). NCWCD allocates and distributes 310,000 C-BT units or shares with an average delivery of more than 219,000 acre-feet of raw water per year. The L TWD, with 7016 shares of C-BT water, is the tenth largest allottee in the Colorado-Big Thompson water system. This represents only 2.25% of the total available C-BT shares. As L TWD's raw water needs increase, the District will continue to obtain the additional C-BT water shares required. With more than 68% of the C-BT deliveries destined for agricultural use, the ability of the L TWD to obtain the needed shares of water is not a major concern at this time. The Little Thompson Water District also maintains metered connections with Central Weld County Water District (CWCWD), Fort Collins-Loveland Water District and the City of Loveland for emergency supply and supplemental water to boost service in remote areas of the District. -----------------~------------- ~ 3.3 District Facilities 3.3.1 Water Treatment Little Thompson Water District and Central Weld County Water District jointly own and operate two water treatment plants located at the south end of Carter Lake.
