The effects of the projected coal developments on service to other functions I
have been determined through a series of computer-conducted reservoir operation
studics for the 1898-1972 period of record. Twelve such long-range operation studiell
were conducted, four studies for each of the development levels at 1980, 2000
and 2020. The first of these four studies lias a base study to determinc the
servicc which could be provided with zero water use for coal development. The
other three studies measured the effect of utilization of 700,000; 1,400,000; and
2,500,000 acre-feet for coal development by the year 2020.
