<br /> <br />l~. ~""~. ,~, <br />",I ~:J <~ <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />August 1. For the remainder of the water year, with the exception of <br />August, releases equaling the reservoir inflows will be made. The <br />August releases will be maintained at 150 c.f.s. as requested by <br />Colorado River interests. <br /> <br />Table 3 and exhibit 6 show anticipated 1973 water year operation of <br />Ruedi Reservoir. <br /> <br />Turquoise Lake <br /> <br />Planned operation of Turquoise Lake for water year 1973 was made <br />assuming ideal conditions and complying with as many requests by in- <br />volved entities as possible. It is recognized that in actual opera- <br />tion circumstances may require some variation from the plan. <br /> <br />Native inflow of Lake Fork, and Busk-Ivanhoe imports were estimated <br />from historic records. The annual results of the probability study <br />(exhibit 1 and exhibit 2) for the 10-, 50-, and 90-percent values were <br />distributed monthly on the basis of an average historic year. Native <br />inflow was stored to the CF&I Steel Corporation's account during the <br />winter months. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Homeatake project imports were considered to be the same as that proj_ <br />ect's release to the Trout Creek Pumping Plant during most months. <br />The exceptions were in May and June when the imports may be cut off <br />due to Lake Fork channel problems and releases to the Trout Creek pump <br />will be made from storage. Homestake imports and releases were consid- <br />ered to be at a rate of 50 c.f.s. Homestake was considered to have <br />stored 6,000 acre-feet during the winter months to make up the May and <br />June releases. <br /> <br />During the 1971 and 1972 water years, water was stored in Turquoise <br />Lake for the Catlin Canal Company under an interim agreement. This <br />was done by an exchange with that company's Mt. Pisgah Reservoir on <br />Oil Creek and Larkspur Ditch trans mountain diversions. <br /> <br />The Pueblo Water Board owns one-half of the Busk-Ivanhoe imports. As <br />that board has not indicated that it plans to store in Turquoise Lake <br />in 1973, its half of the Busk-Ivanhoe imports was assumed passed <br />through the lake. No storage by exchange for the Pueblo Water Board <br />is foreseen in 1973. <br /> <br /> <br />That part of the Busk-Ivanhoe imports belonging to the High Line Canal <br />Company was considered stored in Turquoise Lake under interim agreement. <br />Releases to High Line Canal Company were assumed to be of the same <br />quantity and pattern as occurred in 1972. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />17 <br /> <br />
