<br />Utilizing the above figures, an average cost of develoI;-ing storage is
<br />conputed to be S478/acre-foot. If 10% simple interest is added for three
<br />years, since SO!!1e of the numbers are two to tr..ree years old, an average
<br />ccst of S636/acre-foot is obtained. Thus, the total cost of acquiring
<br />4,375 a.::re-feet of sp2.ce in Bear Creek L~i-:.8 \.;ould eCil.lal $~/782,50C6 Tr.e
<br />costs would be alloc~ted as shown in Table 4.
