It is defined in the Colorado <br />River Compact (1922) and is also known as the <br />Compact Point. <br />- A flow gauging station on the mainstream of <br />the Colorado River just upstream of the mouth <br />of the Paria River. <br />- The Colorado River Simulation Model. <br />- A length of river used in the model. <br />- An inflow created by the unused portion of a <br />diversion. <br />- One of the 20 possible points that make up a <br />reach. Each sequence point represents either <br />an inflow, demand, or reservoir. <br /> <br />, <br />I, <br />I <br />i <br />l <br />~ <br /> <br />Lees Fe rry <br /> <br />(the) Model <br />Reach <br />Return flow <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I, <br /> <br />Sequence point <br /> <br />Water year <br /> <br />A year beginning October 1. <br /> <br />viii <br />
