The <br /> <br />Dixie Project in southwestern Utah is the only project whose depletions <br /> <br />will significantly affect side inflows of water to this reach of the <br /> <br />river. This project will divert water from the Virgin River, a tri- <br /> <br />butary which flows directly into Lake Mead. Monthly depletions are <br /> <br />modeled using information provided by Ribbens and Wilson (1973; <br /> <br />Table X). <br /> <br />Monthly side inflows of total dissolved solids have been <br /> <br />given non-zero values even for months in which side inflows of water <br /> <br />decrease to nearly zero. The non-zero contribution of salts is main- <br /> <br />tained because the sources of TDS are predominantly low volume steady <br /> <br /> <br />discharges from highly saline springs (USER, 1971a; page 32). <br />
