Brief description of existing water supply facilities; any existing operational or maintenance <br />problems: <br /> <br />Jackson Reservoir (located primarily in parts of Sections 14, 15, 22, 23 and 27, <br />Township 5 North, Range 60 West, Morgan County) is owned and operated by the Jackson Lake <br />Reservoir and Irrigation Company. Water is diverted from the South Plane River (in Section 19, <br />T4N, R61W, Weld County) and is stored in Jackson Reservoir approximately 11 miles <br />. downstream. The water is used for agricultural irrigation of approximately 17,000 acres. <br /> <br />The Company has decrees for the following storage water rights: <br /> <br /> Reservoir Amount Date of <br /> Priority No. ~ Ap,prrwriationJ Adiudicarion <br /> 1) 20 30,992.00 05-18-1901/01-15-1914 <br />. 2) 20 4,637.00 05-18-1901/05-11-1915 <br /> 3) 20R (refill) 8,269.92 12-31-1929 I 06-Q8-1965 <br /> <br />All of the decreed have a maximum diversion rate of 400 c.f.s. <br /> <br />During high run-off periods in the South Plane River, extensive damage occurs to the <br />diversion strUCtUl'e and the inlet canal. Repairs are made each time this bappeDs, but because of <br />the frequency of this problem, the Board of Directors is considering a new diversion to replace <br />, . the old one. <br /> <br />Without the repairs to the diversion, the Company will be unable to divert its decreed <br />water for supply to the irrigators for their crops. <br /> <br />2a <br /> <br />. <br />
