<br />V-10 <br /> <br />REFERENCES - SECTION V <br /> <br />To begin to plan for the future flow management, however, it is recommended <br />that Denver Water Department officials be provided a copy of this Phase A <br />report. Their participation is important. <br /> <br />Bates, W. (Denver Water Department), "Control of Releases from Chatfield <br />Reservoir and Management of Denver's Water Rights," personal communication, <br />March 1984. <br /> <br />A second step would be for the multi-purpose South Platte River Corridor <br />Agency to retain a water resources engineer familiar with the South Platte <br />River. He would be engaged for factual data preparation. Legal assistance <br />might be provided jointly by the Colorado Attorney General, the City Attor- <br />ney, and the Drainage District legal counsel. The water section of the Col- <br />orado Bar Association could serve in an advisory manner and provide workable <br />ideas for consideration. <br /> <br />Clayton, J.T. (Water Commissioner District 8), "Current Locations and <br />Amounts of Water Rights on South Platte River," personal communication, <br />Decmeber 1983. <br /> <br />Colorado State Engineer's Office, Stream Alpha List - Districts 8 and 2, <br />1981. <br /> <br />The river corridor, to serve its utilitarian and cultural functions for the <br />Denver Metro area (and certainly for the core city of Denver), should be <br />provided a basis for reasonable low flow maintenance within the Prior Appro- <br />priation Doctrine of Colorado and compatible with existing decreed water <br />uses. There will be "no free lunch" on low flow maintenance; but it may be <br />possible through multiple-use resource management techniques to avoid starv- <br />ing the river while each luncheon guest pays his or her own way. <br /> <br />Fonda, S.
