Flow at the <br />gaging station Uncompahgre River near Ridgway was 457 <br />cfs, as compared to the long-term average of 337 cfs. <br />Storage in Taylor Park, Crawford, and Fruitland reservoirs <br />totaled 85% of normal as of the end of June, <br /> <br />Outlook <br />. Basin administrators are e?<pecting a call on the <br />Uncompahgre River at any time, <br />Toward the end of June irrigators were beginning to <br />draw heavily on the reservoir storage. Grand Mesa <br />Reservoirs did not have much carry over to begin this year, <br />and most of the larger reservoirs on the Mesa did not fill, <br />which is not normal. <br /> <br />Administrative/Manaaement Concerns <br />The water commissioner for the Tomichi Creek <br />basin above Gunnison indicates that stream flows are as low <br />as she has seen them, with many priorities being shut off <br />that have never been curtailed before, <br />More repiacementwell permits are being applied for, <br />as well as dry holes being reported on initial drilling of new <br />wells, <br /> <br />Jul-01 <br /> <br />Glms::t-J8QSINS\I\S HSTORl' <br /> <br /> <br />6-.- <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />; . <br /> <br />fi:-1 <br />o <br /> <br /> <br />Ii; <br />~ , <br /> <br />w <br />~ <br />~, <br />> <br />~ <br />00 <br />~ <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> <br />-4 _._.__ __.'.__n __.,__ "__ .."__ <br />JaHl2 Jln93 J>n&I JaHlS J<<>93 <br /> <br />,.,.,..... ..... <br /> <br />..... ..... <br /> <br />M:lNJH1,...,. <br /> <br />l.I\CCM)JIJ-<<:RE RIVER r\R R100WAY, Fl.CW BY WATER 'tEAR <br /> <br />250,000 <br /> <br /> v .--- <br /> / <br />.
