<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />WATER SUPPLY <br /> <br />The Company has water storage rights totally 4074 acre-feet, of <br />which about 1176 are absolute and remainder are conditional, with <br />an adjudication date of 1915 and a priority date of 1905, which is <br />a fairly junior priority in the LaPlata River basin. The reservoir <br />is primarily filled from a 120 cfs diversion decree from the <br />Laplata River, plus whatever flows occur in Hay Gulch. The <br />reservoir is not able to fill in the driest years such as 1977 and <br />the reservoir fills on the average about 7 or 8 times out of 10 <br />years. <br /> <br />If enlarged and used for plans of augmentationr adequate <br />augment~ti~n water for the following year should be left in the <br />reservo~r ~n the event that the reservoir cannot fill the next <br />year. A plan for distribution of water in shortage years would be <br />necessary. An evaluation of the water supply with the enlarged <br />reservoir would be one of the first tasks. <br /> <br />RESERVOIR <br /> <br />Table 1 shows the elevation-area-capacity values for the reservoir; <br />the table was developed from area data contained in the original <br />construction plans. The present water level is 6896 feet, which is <br />a capacity of 1176 acre-feet. A 29 foot enlargement, to elevation <br />6925 feet, is proposed which would increase the storage to 4072 <br />acre-feet and is the amount of the storage water right. <br /> <br />Red Mesa Dam <br /> <br />4 <br />
