<br />~ <br />C.D <br />00 <br />C~J <br /> <br />is apt to be w~sted under present conditions because of excess <br /> <br />flow in v'est Divide Creek at the same time.. After constI'Llction <br /> <br />of a reservoir this water would in many years be largely wested <br /> <br />because of~~le storable water on West Divide Creek. In cry years <br /> <br />even the reC.licee' yield of these diversions will be very valuGble, <br /> <br />ane especially SO with a reservoir available for their storag~. <br /> <br />It should be noted that neither of these diversions is <br /> <br />included in the recorred flow of Willow Creek, but that both are <br /> <br />a part of the 1937 recorc at Terrell Ranch. <br /> <br />It does not seem to be possible to place a very definite <br /> <br />value on the yield of these diversions, and in view of the uncertainty <br /> <br />regarding water supply it is probablY more desirable to gonclude <br /> <br />that their possible yield is an added factor of safety in the estima- <br /> <br />tion of storable water on West Divide Creek. <br /> <br />Determination of Storable Runoff <br /> <br />,'The drainage area "bove Willow Creek g'3.ging station is <br /> <br />11.8 SQuare Idles.
