<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Page #8 <br /> <br />The water is claimed generally for all possible <br />uses for which it may be put. <br /> <br />The claim states that a map and statement was filed <br />with the State Engineer on November 14, 1942 and bears <br />number 17268. <br /> <br />It is alleged that the lands to be irrigated approxi- <br />mate one-half million acres in the counties of Douglas, <br />Jefferson, Arapahoe, Adams, Clear Creek, Boulder, Weld <br />and Morgan lying below an elevation of 6,000 feet. <br /> <br />A priority date of October 27, 1942 is sought for <br />3300 c.f.s. direct flow and storage. It is alleged that <br />construction work on this project was commenced October 27, <br />1942 by survey. <br /> <br />Claims of the United States <br /> <br />The United States has filed separate claims in 1805 <br />and 1806 but these are not identical in all respects. <br /> <br />The claim of the United States in 1805 is dated <br />January 15, 1944. The claim of the United States in 1806 <br />bears no date on the copy which you have submitted to me <br />but apparently was dated sometime in 1943. I do not have <br />the filing dates of either of these claims. <br /> <br />The United States asserts claims on behalf of Green <br />Mountain Reservoir, hydroelectric plants Nos. 5 and 6 and <br />Elliott Creek Canal, all of which are said to be parts <br />of the Colorado-Big Thompson Project. Green Mountain <br />Reservoir and hydroelectric plant No. 5 are alleged to be <br />constructed and operating. <br /> <br />The claim does not describe the exact location of <br />Green Mountain Reservoir and merely says that its location <br />will be Sh01Vll on a map which will be introduced in evidence. <br />The reservoir is across the channel of the Blue River and ' <br />has a capacity of 156,545 a.f. (this is stated to include <br />bank storage of 1900 a.f.). The sources of supply of the <br />reservoir are Blue River and its tributaries emptying <br />into the Blue River above the dam, and Elliott Creek. <br /> <br />?~~ <br />v <br />
