<br />001927 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Swanson Lake <br /> <br />The reservoir inflow for 1963 was 70% of the most probable. Nine <br />thousand acre-feet was atored in the flood control pool in March <br />to provide water to aluice the channel at the old Meeker Diversion <br />Da~ site. During October, an inveatigation was made of the upper <br />end of the reservoir to determine sediment accumulations. A resurvey <br />of the reservoir area is not required at this time. <br /> <br />The 20,116 acres irrigated under the Bartley and Meeker-Driftwood <br />Canals were provided a full water supply from controlled spills and <br />irrigation releases. The water surface was drawn down approximately <br />12 feet (52,620 acre-feet) in the conservation pooL by the end of <br />the irrigation season. No storage was sold under Warren Act Contracts. <br /> <br />Enders Reservoir <br /> <br />The reservoir inflow for 1963 was 98% of the most probable, with a <br />maximum elevation of 3112.12 feet (44,170 acre-feet) reached on June 11. <br />This waS 0.18 feet below the top of the conservation pool. <br /> <br />The storage was adequate to meet the demands of the 18,929 acres <br />irrigated by the Frenchman Valley and H&RW Irrigation Districts. The <br />reservoir by early September was drawn down to elevation 3088.4 feet <br />(14,450 acre-feet). Active conservation carryover storage at this' <br />elevation was 6,000 acre-feet. No storage was sold under Warren Act <br />Contracts. <br /> <br />HURh Butler Lake <br /> <br />The reservoir inflow for 1963 was 94% of the most probable, with a <br />maximum elevation of 2573.87 (26,370 acre-feet) reached on June 9. <br />This was 7.93 feet below top of the conservation pool. <br /> <br />Storage releases were made during the irrigation season for downstream <br />rights and for demands of the partially developed Red Willow system. <br />No storage was Bold under Warren Act Contracts. <br /> <br />Harry Strunk Lake <br /> <br />The reservoir inflow for 1963 was 104% of the most probable. The <br />reservoir reached a depth of 3.6 feet (6,840 acre-feet) in the flood <br />control pool on June 5. Controlled spilla emptied the flood storage <br />by the end of June possibly preventing some minor flood damage on <br />Medicine Creek. Irrigation demands resulted in the reservoir being <br />drawn down approximately 12.3 feet (18,000 acre-feet) in the conserva- <br />tion pool by August 18. No storage was sold under Warren Act Contracts. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />6 <br />
