The Table shows arbitrary levels of development <br />during the period 1990 to 2040. <br /> <br />s. West Divide Project <br /> <br />j. . . <br />A Fea$1b111ty Report was prepared by the U.S. Bureau of <br />Reclamatibn in 1966, and the project was authorized by Public <br />Law 90-531 on September 30, 1968, as a participating project of <br />the ColorJdo River Storage Project, Advance planning studies <br />have continued and various plans have been considered, but none <br /> <br />is feasible based upon current federal pOlicies and procedures <br /> <br />for plann~ng water and related land resources. Plans included <br />a mix of ~ater for irrigation and municipal use, A Concluding <br /> <br />Report wai drafted in 1982 to summarize data available. A plan <br />is presen~ed which is not economically justified but totals <br /> <br />38,200 acr~-feet of depletion, For planning purposes, an <br />administra!tive decision was made by Reclamation to defer <br /> <br />depletions! until after 2040. <br /> <br />A recohnaissance level res coping study sponsored by the <br />CWCB and the CRWCD has been completed, The results indicated a <br />project deyeloping just 10,000 acre-feet of depletions might be <br />possible. <br /> <br />-15- <br />
