Parcels with an initial positive payment <br /> <br /> <br />capacity after comparing the residual payment capacity to the cost of <br /> <br /> <br />water are initially identified as practicably irrigable. <br /> <br />D.4.5 Preliminary Practicably Irrigable Acreage Determination <br /> <br /> <br />Table D.5 and Figures D.l through D.3 identify the preliminary <br /> <br /> <br />practicably irrigable acreage for the Piedra watershed. Three <br /> <br /> <br />parcels totaling 206 acres were identified as initially PIA in the <br /> <br /> <br />Piedra Watershed. The estimated annual water diversions would be <br /> <br /> <br />513 acre-feet from the piedra River. <br /> <br />D.4.6 Final Practicably Irrigable Acreage Determination <br /> <br /> <br />Each of the three parcels which make up the 204 acres of preliminary <br /> <br /> <br />PIA land was individually evaluated by the economist and adjusted to <br /> <br /> <br />reflect individual parcel characteristics. These characteristics <br /> <br /> <br />include ~oil suitability, land clearing and preparation, and farm <br /> <br /> <br />efficiency adjustments for parcel size. After analysis none of the <br /> <br /> <br />three parcels were found to qualify as potentially PIA. The details <br /> <br /> <br />of the analysis are contained in "Economic Analysis of Potentially <br /> <br /> <br />Irrigable Parcels in the Piedra Watershed" dated December, 1986, <br /> <br /> <br />prepared by Western Research Corporation. <br /> <br />12 <br />
