<br />Gray Reef
<br />
<br />River releases at Gray Reef would average 900 c. f. s. during March and increase
<br />to about 1,200 c. f. s. during April and May. Thcreafter, releases would be fur-
<br />ther increased to 1.800 c. f.". during June and July, and 1,900 e. f. s. for the
<br />remainder of the water year.
<br />
<br />Glcndo
<br />
<br />The' plan for Glendo Reservoir would reach ma,imum reservoir storage content
<br />of 520,000 acre-feet by the end of April. Thereafter, releases would be made as
<br />required to satisfy full seasonal irri gation deli veries of 1,050,000 acre-feet to
<br />the North Platte project and 12,000 acre-feet to the Glendo unit. End-of-year
<br />storage to 60,000 acre-feet would be the desired normal.
<br />
<br />t;(J:~;i
<br />
<br />With reasonable minimum water supplies, North Platte project storage water
<br />ownership would increase to 990,000 acre-feet by the end of June. End-of-year
<br />storage ownership of 274,000 acre-feet would be below normal. With no owner-
<br />ship accrual during the year, Kendrick project water ownership would be depleted
<br />about 133,000 acre-feet. Kendrick year-end ownership (1,017,000 acre-feet)
<br />would remain much above normal. The Glendo unit ownership gain of 7,000
<br />acre-feet would leave an above normal year-end balance of 143,000 acre-feet.
<br />With minimum water supplies, total combined North Platte storage water owner-
<br />ship would decrease 564,000 acre--fe-et during the water year.
<br />
<br />Boysen
<br />
<br />If minimum water supplies develop, Boysen Reservoir releases for power pro-
<br />duction would be limited to downstream requirements. During the nonirrigation
<br />season, minimum release would be 250 c. f. s. to maintain the downstream fishery
<br />and 300 c. f. s. for water quality control during operation of the Worland Sugar
<br />Plant. Release during the irrigation season would range from about 1,000 to
<br />1,200 c. f. s. Maximum reservoir content of 694,000 acre-feet would be reached
<br />by the end of June. Year-end storage of 542,000 acre-feet would be 77 percent
<br />of normal.

<br />
<br />Buffalo Bill Reservoir releases for power production and fishery conservation
<br />would average 330 c. f. s. during February and March and 400 c. f. s. during April.
<br />The total release would include 50 c. f. s. at Buffalo Bill Dam for fish needs be-
<br />tween the dam and Heart Mountain powerplant. It would provide more than the
