<br />PROJECT FEATURES
<br />
<br />The Colorado-Bie; Thompson Project is one of the largest and
<br />most iInportant transmountain projects undertaken by the Bureau of
<br />Reclamation. Briefly, the project features are designed to
<br />collect surplus runoff on the western slde of the Continental
<br />Divide, to transport such waters to irrigation facilities located
<br />on the opposite side of the mountain range, and to utilize the
<br />power potential created by the falling waters as they drop down
<br />the Eastern Slope from the hig}' elevation of the Alva B. Adams
<br />Tunnel to the plains area below. Replacement features safeguard
<br />Western Slope water users against infringement on their water
<br />supply by project diversions. .
<br />
<br />Arranged in the approximate order of their natural sequence
<br />with respect to the flow of project water from source to destina-
<br />tion, completed and contemplated features of the project are
<br />summarily described under the following designations: Western
<br />Slope Replacement Storage and Improvements; Colorado River Collec-
<br />tion ~ Storage System; Alva B. Adams Tunnel; Estes Park Aqueduct
<br />and Power System; Estes Park-Foothills Power System; Foothills
<br />Storage and Supply System; and Power Transmission System.
