<br />With reflsonflble maximum runoff, pi finned release of surplus river water totaling
<br />7~3, 000 flcre-feet would be made to Nebraska from Guernsey Rescrvoir in the
<br />following pattern: March - 3,000 c. f. s., April - :J, 300 c. f. s., May - 3,150
<br />c. f. s. , find June - 2; 850 c. f. s. Full seasonal irrigation deliveries of 1,062,000
<br />acre-feet would be made to the North Plfltte project and the Glendo unit.

<br />
<br />Boysen Reservoir releases for power production would be increased to near
<br />powerplant capacity from February through July . The conservation storag'e would
<br />fill during July and 188,000 acre-feet would bypass the powerplant. Powerplant
<br />releases of about 1,650 c. f. s. during August and September would leave above
<br />normal storage at the end of the water year.

<br />
<br />With maximum runoff conditions, releases from Buffalo Bill Reservoir during
<br />February and March are planned for powerplant capacity, attempting to reduce
<br />storage to the minimum desirable end of March storage content of 169,000 acre-
<br />feet. Thereafter, releases for power production would be made at plant capa-
<br />bility or greater as required for downstream irrigation. Total reservoir capacity
<br />would fill by the end of June. During the remainder of the year, release would
<br />be made as required to maintain maximum storage. About 405,000 acre-feet
<br />would bypass the powerplant during the heavy runoff period. Year-end content
<br />of 392,000 acre-feet would be above normal.
<br />
<br />Power Production
<br />
<br />With reasonable maximum water supplies, the Western Division System would
<br />produce 286 gigawatt hours more energy than would be produced under the most
<br />probable plan. Heavy release of surplus river water to prevent reservoir spill
<br />in the North Platte area would produce 186 gigawatt hours of surpl us energy during
<br />the April-July period. Import of 314 gigawatt hours would be required from the
<br />P-SMBP Eastern Division System to meet the estimated Western Division System
<br />power load.
