Water operation study reflected annual availability; <br />of water. <br /> <br />The above schedule of demand (Criteria No.2) represents <br /> <br />the new water requirement of the presently reported plans of the <br />State of New Mexico for use of the water tributary to the Navajo <br />Reservoir. This schedule also provides for no new water use in the <br />State of Colorado over and above the two authorized projects in Colo- <br />rado. The M & I water demand in New Mexico, amounting to 224,000 <br />acre feet; includes 75,400 acre feet for the last five new uses in <br />New Mexico shown in the tabulation for Demand Criteria No.1. <br /> <br />The total demand under Criteria No.2 on the river runoff <br /> <br />tributary to the Navajo Reservoir as envisioned by New Mexico thus <br />exceeds the average river runoff for the 29-year period of study, <br />192e~1956. The Navajo Reservoir does not have sufficient capacity <br />to fully equate the stream flow, and non-controllable spills would <br /> <br />-9- <br /> <br />-1' :..d, ~'". ,: A <br /> <br />.. <br />J.
