<br />CDlS~4 <br /> <br />'. <br /> <br />Gunnison River Contract Scooin. - SORTED Comments <br /> <br />3b. GREENO+; p4,'3. (Issue A. Monument Reserved Water Right, cont) The proposed contract <br />offers an opportunity to protect and satisfy the Monument reserved right, but it can do so only if the <br />contract is written with enough specificity and guarantees to protect the total volume of water available <br />to the Monument and to assure that release schedules and flow regimes will maintain and enhance <br />Monument values. <br /> <br />3b. SIERRA; pi, '3. (ISSUE I, cont) The contract analysis should address the relationship between <br />the proposed contract and the eldsting federal reserved water rights. Areas of analysis should include <br />quantities of water that could be reasonably expected if the reserved water .rights were quantified in <br />Colorado water courts and the resource values for which water would be requested. <br /> <br />3b. UGRWCD; p3,'7. 18. No matter which alternative is preferred, contract activities should be <br />coordinated with the quantification of the Black Canyon reserved water right.. The National Park <br />Service has indicated their desire to keep open the option to come back and quanti fy. the reserved water <br />right iodependently of the contract after the contract has been signed. The preferable alternative would <br />be for the contract to fuIly resolve how the quantification would proceed. <br /> <br />I] <br /> <br />.~~:;~:.<~~\ <br />'-""?". ....... <br /> <br />'~'. ,': .~. <br /> <br />. ~".;' <br /> <br />......;.. <br />.,..
