The amount of water to be made available to the Project for irrigation
will be determined jointly by Northern Colorado Water Conservancy
District and Reclamation the latter part of March. This determination
will be subject to change by agreement throughout the remainder
of the irrigation season. Changes may occur due to substantial
changes in the prevailing conditions. Estimates of these irrigation
requirements for the three conditions of inflow were derived by
analyzing actual use in simi lar runoff years when the supply of
project water was ample.

Estimated supplemental irrigation deliveries from Green Mountain
Reservoir to irrigators in the Colorado River Basin are included in
the release from Green Mountain Reservoir, according to the "Operating
Criteria for Green Mountain Reservoir."
