Purpose of Document. The purpose of this Drought Contingency Plan (DCP) <br />is to provide a basic reference for water management decisions and responses to <br />a water shortage in the Arkansas River Basin above Garden City, Kansas induced <br />by climatological droughts. As a water management document it is limited to <br />those drought concerns relating to water control management actions. Because <br />of the long-term nature of a drought and uncertainties of the specific problems <br />that may result, this document details only a limited number of specific actions <br />that can be carried out related to water control. Its primary value is in <br />documenting data needed to manage the districts water resources to insure that <br />they are used in a manner consistent with the needs which develop. This Drought <br />Contingency Plan is Appendix D to the Arkansas River Basin Master Manual dated <br />February 1969. It covers John Martin Reservoir and Trinidad Lake. <br /> <br />1-1 <br />
