Preliminary estimates of cost for dams at Lake BrennAll to store <br /> <br /> <br />different amounts of water indicate that cost of such storage per acre-foot <br /> <br /> <br />would be moderate for any quantity up to 3.000 acre-feet. <br /> <br /> <br />4. studies of places and methods of using thCl stored water in ex- <br /> <br /> <br />cess of the needs of the town of Crested Butte. show that under present <br /> <br /> <br />conditions, and before more detailed atudy of other Ohio Creek valley <br /> <br /> <br />possibilities. the use of such excess water as supplemental supply for <br /> <br /> <br />Ohio Creek meadow hey lands would bCl justified. It must be understood <br /> <br /> <br />that supplemental supplies from Lake Brennan as herein set up are not to <br /> <br /> <br />be regarded as a complete supply for present shortages in Ohio Creek <br /> <br /> <br />valley. <br /> <br /> <br />5.
