(Alternative plans) Cabin Creek.,.Alrnont Tun""l.-This tunnel, 9 miles long, would be used to transport water pumped from the Lower qunnison Collection System and would have its south portal on Cabin Cree~ and its north portal at the Almont Reservoir.

Gunnison-Arkansas Tunnel.__If the ~~~imum Physical Development by stases wel'e contemplated, the Gunnison-Arkansas Tunnel from the Almont Reservoir to Taylor Park to Cottonwood Creek would be constructed in the Maxkum Gravity Diversion to the ultimate capacity. The l,OOO second- feet capacity tunnel required in the Maximum Gravity Diversion could carry the nccessary-l, 400 second-feet in the J.:e.ximum Physical Develo?ment if it wero reinforced to withstand the pressure head imposed by)" full J.J.mont Rosoriroir or the e'Pivalent from pumping. LikeWise, tho Almont Pumping plant capacity would be 1,400 second-feet instead of the l,OOO second-foot.required for the Na.Y.imUI:l Gravity Diversion. The additio.ool cost of this reinforcement and increased pumping capacity would .be chargeable to the Maximum Physical Devolopment oven though they were providod in the prior stage. These additional costs are estimatod as follows: Almont-Tcylor Parko ... . . . . ... . ~2,038.000 Taylor Park-Cottonwood Creok. . . . .. 3,737,000 Almont Pumping Pl~nt. . . . . . . .. l,5l3,OOO Tota.l... . .'~ ,'.". . . ._. . . . "7,288,,000 Tenderfoot Tunnel.-':'If tho Haximwn PhysicnJ. Dovelopment wore con- templc.tod beforeh:md, this tunnol would be constructod in the 1laximu.'Il Grc.vity Diversion to the ultimc.to roquirod capaoity of 2,200 second- feet. Thoroforo, no onlargomont for tho imximUI' Physical DeveloplOOnt would bo noodod, and no additional cost would be ohargonble theroto. Wellsvillc-Texas Creok Tunnol.__This tunnol oonsisting of threo sootions would connoct tho Yiellsville-Texas Crock Cnnc.l and the Texas Creek Powerplant. The first section of tunnol, 2 milos long, would oxtend frOI' the east end of the Hollsville Di vor sion Canc.l to a point on Badger Crook about 2 miles c.bovo its confluence with the l~knnsas River. Tho second section of tunnel, 13 milos in longth, would be oon- struoted from Badgor Creek to Fernleaf Guloh about 2 miles o.bove the mouth of tho (';ulch.
