":7' 000743 Also presented on the above table is the storage associated with stock ponds which are to be modeled in Phase III, Stock pond capacity was obtained from the year 2 product, Task Memo 2,09, Non-Evapotranspiration (Other Uses) consumptive uses and Losses in the White River Basin (8/16/96), Number of Structures and Location Based on a review of the Phase II reservoir . . coverage map and the location of stock ponds with regard to USGS hydrologic units, the Phase III reservoirs and stock ponds were incorporated into the model as two aggregated reservoirs; one on the White River above the state line gage (ARW _001) and another on the White River above the confluence with the Piceance Creek (AR W _ 002), Accounts Each reservoir was assigned two accounts and an initial storage equal to 75 % of their capacity as follows: Account (per reservoir) Operational (reservoirs) Non-Operational (stock ponds) Total Capacity (AF) Initial Contents 2,117 2,338 4,505 (AF) 1,588 1,791 3,379 Area-Capacity and Evaporation Data Each aggregated reservoir was assigned an area- capacity curve and evaporation station which is the same as that determined for Big Beaver Reservoir in Phase 2. Operational Rules, Target Contents and End-of-Month Data Each aggregated reservoir was assigned an operational rule to meet the following targets (Note, these values represent a 75% full structure and a release pattern of 25% in July, 50% in August and 25% in September for the operational account, End-of-Month data, used in the Base Flow calculations, was estimated to be equal to the target values, Month October - June Target (AF) 3,379 2,982 2,118 1,791 July August September Water Rights Each aggregated reservoir was assigned two types of water rights; a senior decree equal to the stock pond capa1' ty and aggregated decrees equal to the decreed reservoir storage, The decreed reservoi storage rights were separated into the same water tC<. \e """'- ~~ 2
