The tables below show the proposed average monthly <br />reductions in diversions and the reductions in on-farm deliveries for each reach. Although <br />the reductions in diversions were assigned to a reach based on the distribution of irrigated <br />acres, in some cases the reductions would occur further upstream depending on the <br />location of the mainstem headgate. The amount delivered on-farm was based on the <br />average conveyance loss for each reach. Data on conveyance losses was based on <br />county-level information obtained from USGS Water Use Data for 1995. <br /> <br />c:\Dmn Waler Action Plllll {May 30, 2000)\wapc report (Version 6 BND2hlkK: <br /> <br />29 <br />
