<br />
<br />Development of the Fryingpan-ArkansasProject would provide a
<br />
<br />supplemental supply of irrigation water to the 322,000 acres of
<br />irrigated land in the valley. An analysis of stream flow and
<br />clinatic records for the years 1911 to 1944 inclusive, reveals
<br />
<br />that in no year during that period would the available water

<br />shortage of irrigation water would have ranged from 78 percent of

<br />requirements in 1931;" "0 3 percent in 1941. The average shortage
