<br />n01934 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />1964 Plan <br /> <br />Harry Strunk Lake <br /> <br />Harry Strunk conservation storage pool will fill under all inflow <br />conditions and controlled spills will be made as dictated by the <br />inflow. The storage and available inflow will be more than adequate <br />to meet the demands of 14,000 acres expected to be irrigated by <br />the Cambridge Canal system. <br /> <br />While the outlet was out of serviee for repair of the stilling basin, <br />~was siphoned over the spillway notch during December 1963 and <br />January 1964 to meet downstream atock water demands, The structure <br />was back in service by the end of January. <br /> <br />On February 2, the water surface reached the bottom of the spillway <br />notch and controlled spills dictated by the inflow began. On <br />February 10th by agreement with the Corps of Engineers, it was <br />decided to store water in the flood control pool until such time as <br />the temporary repairs are completed at Harlan County Reservoir, This <br />space if water is available after July 15th may again be used for <br />temporary storage during permanent riprap repairs, <br /> <br />Norton Reservoir <br /> <br />Flows of Prairie Dog Creek were diverted through the outlet works <br />on January 28, 1964 with storage scheduled to start about the first <br />of August. The conservation storage pool is not expected to fill <br />in 1964. <br /> <br />Harlan County Reservoir <br /> <br />Harlan County conservation storage pool is drawn down 8.0 feet (96,960 <br />acre-feet) and releases will be made as necessitated by inflow to <br />maintain this elevation until March 20, 1964, when temporary riprap <br />repairs are scheduled to be completed. Under "reasonable minimum" <br />conditions the conservation storage pool will not fill but an ample <br />water supply will be available to irrigate 20,000 acres in the <br />Bostwick Irrigation District in Nebraska, and 26,500 acres in Kansas- <br />Bostwick Irrigation District. As an added assurance of a full irriga- <br />tion supply for 1964, the Corps of Engineers has agreed to allow <br />temporary conservation storage in the flood control pools of all the <br />other reservoirs in the Republican River Basin. At the time of thia <br />report, the only reservoirs that can be utilized under this agreement <br />are Harry Strunk and Lovewell. This same agreement will be in effect <br />after July 15, to compensate for the permanent riprap repairs which <br />will commence on September 1, 1964. This will require special releasee <br />under IImost probable" ,and "reasonable maximum" conditions to draw <br />the conservation storage pool down 11.0 feet (128,500 acre-feet) and <br />will be maintained at this elevation until repairs are completed. <br />Completion date will depend on working conditions. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />13 <br />
