90CW292 Water Div. 5 consistent with this conditionally decreed storage right. If the ultimate perfection of this conditionally decreed water right involves a redesign or reconfiguration of the facility, including a change in place of storage, the CWCB will not oppose the entry of a decree changing the storage rights provided the proposed storage vessel is located within this insteam flow segment and provided Denver includes as a term and condition that it ""ill bypass the instream flows decreed herein between the original and the changed point of diversion, c. The CWCB recognizes that water stored in upstream reservoirs or diverted from other basins may be released or delivered into Vasquez Creek to be diverted at downstream points. The CWCB shall not prevent or otherwise limit Denver from being able to release or deliver water diverted or stored under Civil Action 657 or Civil Action 1430 into this segment or assert injury to its appropriation due to such releases or deliveries. d. The CWCB, WPRA and other Grand County water users are parties to an agreement (the "Agreement") dated July 21, 1992, which sets forth the parties' understandings, rights and obligations concerning the Clinton Reservoir-Fraser River Water Agreement also dated July 21, 1992, including the Grand County Water Users' Operating Plan attached thereto (collectively the "Clinton Agreement"). The Agreement provides, among other things, that the CWCB agreed not to seek to improve the position of its water rights in the Fraser and Williams Fork Basins by claiming any of the waters made available by Denver for WPRA and others under the Clinton Agreement. Accordingly, the CWCB waived any claim to those waters as a source of supply for these Instream Flow water rights. Nothing contained in this ruling and decree shall be deemed to modify, alter or supersede any of the terms of, or rights and obligations arising under, the Agreement, and the Agreement shall survive the entry of a decree' herein.
