<br />7 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />0.33 cfs of water from Sawmill Ditch with un effective priority of <br />1979. The Thompson Enlargement is not on Federal land; rather it <br />takes water, through a pipe and pump system, from Sawmill Ditch at a <br />point below the wilderness boundal'Y. The previously awarded 6 cfs "I' <br />absolute rights has, historically. de-watel'ed H smllll seg-mcllt of' ';""111 <br />Willow Creek during periods of low flows. The additional 0.]3 ,,1',; m,,) <br />extend the duration of those effects to a slight degree, The FOrest <br />Service has no information that indicates that the original diversion <br />from South Willow Creek has been altered in anJ way. so the Thompson <br />Enlargement is not considered to be a cha~ge in the pre-wilderness <br />conditions. <br /> <br />AlIaI' the five rights described above represent such very small uses <br />of water that they are considered not to have any noticeable effect on <br />the wilderness water resources, particularly any effect that could be <br />quantified. As with all of the absolute water rights, if the Forest <br />Service determines that their continued use would diminish the wilder- <br />ness resources, the FOrest Service would seek to acquire by purchase <br />Or exchange the water rights and related lands. Further changes in <br />the development works associated with these rights on wilderness or <br />non-wilderness NFS la~ds will require authorization by the President <br />Or the Forest Service, respectively. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Conditional Ri~hts. The information concerning conditional water <br />rights is displayed in Appendix II, As shown there, all of these <br />rights are senior to the related wilderness designations with the <br />exception of the conditional water rights of the Denver Water Board. <br />ThiS list does not include those decreed conditional rights related to <br />the Federally authorized and funded Fryingpan-Arkansas Reclamation <br />Project in the Hunter-Fryingpan and Holy Cross Wildernesses or those <br />for the Homestake Project in the Holy CroSS Wilderness, all of which <br />were recognized and approved by Congress. See Public Law 87-590, 76 <br />Stat. 389, as amended, 43 U.S.C. 616 (note) (authorizing construction, <br />operation a~d maintenance of Fryingpan-Arkansas Recl~ati6n Project in <br />accordan.:e wi th specific operating principles and streamflow require- <br />ments); and, Section l02(a)(5) of Public Law 96-560, 94 Stat. 3266 <br />(establishing Holy Cross Wil~erness ~,d disclaiming a~y effect on the <br />Homestake Project). The water rights related to these projects are <br />displayed in the separate wi~derness sections of Appe~dix III. <br /> <br />None of these conditional rights may be developed on ~on-wilderness or <br />Idld2rness NFS lands without authorization by the Forest Service or <br />tile President, respectively. If any of these rights, whether on <br />Federal or non-Federal lands is implemented in a manner that will <br />adversely affect wilderness values, the mar,agement mechanisms dis- <br />cussed below are available to address tt.e Lhl'eat. <br /> <br />. <br />
