Box 61470 <br />Boulder City. NY 89006-1470 <br /> <br />.- - <br />- . <br /> <br />FEB 2 3 199 <br /> <br />DIR <br />sc <br />ASC <br />F <br />I <br />L <br />E <br /> <br /> <br />LC-460 <br />WTR-4.JO <br /> <br />To: All Interested Parties <br /> <br />FromillCn V. LeGrand Nei lson <br />N~egional Supervisor of Water, Land, and Power <br /> <br />Subject: Estimate of 1994 Colorado River Water Use <br /> <br />Attached are the forecasts of 1994 water use for all users in the lower basin. <br />The forecast currently indicates that total mainstream Colorado River water use <br />by Lower Division States is below the 7.5 million acre-foot limit established in <br />the Annual Operating Plan for 1994. <br /> <br />Projected 1994 water use is based on actual use during January 1994, users <br />historical use patterns, and scheduled use provided by users. Projected use for <br />each user is being provided so that water users can monitor their use of water <br />and avoid any overuse during the year. Because seasonal agricultural <br />requirements can vary significantly from year to year, it is emphasized that all <br />users should promote water conservation and plan to keep water use within their <br />annual entitlement. <br /> <br />We expect the actual use data contained in the projections will provide the basis <br />for the "Compilation of Records in Accordance with Article V of the Supreme Court <br />of the Uni ted States in Ari zona v. Ca 1 Horni a" (Art i cl e V records) for calendar <br />year 1994. As a result, we are asking that each user review the actual use data <br />and notify us if any of the records appear to have errors. Your review of the <br />accuracy of the records during the year will help us complete the final Article V <br />records in a timely fashion. The final 1994 Article V records will be used to <br />determine, among other things, the extent to which any individual user of <br />Colorado River water may have exceeded their entitlement. In such cases, the <br />final records will serve as the basis for requiring reductions in water use in <br />future years in order to offset any such inadvertent overruns that may have <br />occurred. <br /> <br />For any further information concerning our water use accounting and projection <br />process, please contact Mr. Alden Briggs at (702) 293-8677. <br /> <br /> <br />Attachment <br />
