To make releases during the winter of water stored during the previous summer as required under the Transfer Decree; any amount released will be used to satisfy the City's demand; and 2. To meet demand if all other supply sources are exhausted. Surplus: The excess Ditch water available once demand has been met by City and Ditch supplies. This amount may be used to fill the storage facility under terms of the Transfer Decree, but any additional excess will be lost to Loveland and allowed to flow downstream. Supply- Demand: The sum of the six supply values minus the demand. This is the surplus water for the month which is not being used. Surpluses from CBT, Windy Gap and storage sources remain available for use in following months. The final two columns show the total and net annual yields for the year. The City and Ditch total values are the sums of the 12 monthly values. The CBT and Vindy Gap total values are the maximum values for the year, since these represent the total available supply realized from these sources for the year. The net annual yield equals the total yield after adjusting for surplus water stored, surplus water left in the river, and releases made under terms of the Transfer Decree. The Net Annual Yield is the critical value for each combination of scenario and recurrence interval. This value summarizes the net amount of water which remains available at the end of the "quota" year. Vhen this value is negative, a deficit(s) occurred during the year and this value signifies the total amount of the deficit. Annual values are summarized in Table 9-2 to facilitate comparison between the various scenarios. The combination of existing City water supply sources and those additional water rights forecast for acquisition are sufficient to meet the anticipated water demands of the 2000-low, 2000-moderate, and 2015-low scenarios in all cases at the 25-, 50-, 100- and 200-year drought I 9-5
