<br />. <br />000215 <br /> <br />for 105,099 acres of what is termed productive land or 110,360 acres <br />of land for project development. It could well be that the la~d area <br />may be increased or the estimateddi~rsion requirement of approximately' <br />five acre feet per acre be inadequate. <br />In the case of the Town of Farmington the future demand is <br /> <br />estimated as 10,000 acre feet. This would appear to be sufficient <br /> <br />for an increase in population of 25,000 to 35,000 which is very lit- <br /> <br />tIe in excess of the growth of the town during the past ten-year <br />period. It is not realistic to assume that the total water require- <br />ments will remain static and that 10,000 acre feet will be sufficient <br />to serve all future growth. <br />The preceding analysis of the water supply tributary to <br />the Navajo Reservoir under demand Criteria No. 1 and No.2 provides <br />no release or by-pass for supplying water requirements of the present <br />San Juan River appropriators in New Mexico down stream from the junc- <br />tion of the Animas River with the San Juan. This matter will be dis- <br /> <br />cussed later in the report. <br />Sharinqs of Shortaqes under Upper Colorado River Basin Compact. <br />Article XIV (c) of this compact provides that uses of the <br />waters of the San Juan River and any of its tributaries, not existing <br />or authorized at the time of the signing of the compact, and which <br /> <br />are dependent upon a common source of water, shall be reduced in times <br /> <br />of water shortages. The amount of this reduction shall be such that <br />the resulting consumptive use in each State shall bear the same pro- <br />portionate relation to the consumptive use made in each State during <br />times of average water supply. It also provides that any preferen- <br />tial uses of water to which Indians are entitled under Article XIX <br /> <br />- 11 - <br /> <br />,:,1. :." i" ~, .'~ __.,~ :..{: <br /> <br />_',c".' <br /> <br />-, die "d"..,coS,i.w <br />
