<br /> <br />080901 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />proposed Operation. <br /> <br />The proposed operation of Trinidad Reservoir differs <br />from operation to date only by use of equation A to <br />determine the lower limit of deliveries (ten year <br />progressive series). Operation to date has been according <br />to the "Operating principles, Trinidad Dam and Reservoir <br />project." The principles define the ditches involved in the <br />project, describe water rights, land limitations and water <br />storage and use through the irrigation and non-irrigation <br />seasons. <br /> <br />proposed operation is summarized as follows: <br /> <br />1. Store and use water according to "Operating <br />principles, Trinidad Dam and Reservoir Project." <br /> <br />2. At the end of each water year, the State Engineer <br />computes what purgatoire River flows "would have <br />been" at Thatcher absent Trinidad Reservoir using <br />this equation (Le., predicted flows). <br /> <br />Qth = 3216 + 1.04 Qtr - 2875 SPb + 4.35 Qvb (A) <br /> <br />purgatoire River flows at Trinidad, Qt~, are <br /> <br />-24- <br />
