<br />~J <br />; <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />,e <br /> <br />il <br /> <br />-- <br /> <br />plan for augmentation.--"...a detailed program to increase the supply of water <br />available for beneficial use in a division or part thereof by the development <br />of ne~ or alternate means or points of diversion; by pooling of water <br />resources; by water-exchange projects, by providing substitute supplies of <br />water; by the development of new sources of water; or by any other appropriate <br />means. "Plan for Augmentation" does not include the salvage of tributary <br />waters by the eradication of phreatophytes, nor does it include the use of <br />tributary water collected from land surfaces that have been made impermeable, <br />thereby increasing the runoff, but not adding to the supply of tributary <br />water..." (Radosevich and others, .1975). <br /> <br />power pool.--See reservoir-space allocation. <br /> <br />previous adjudication date.--A date listed in the tabulation of all water <br />rights that is significant, in that, regardless of the priority date assigned, <br />all rights adjudicated on a given date are junior to all rights adjudicated at <br />an earlier date. The opportunity to adjudicate is taken into consideration in <br />establishing basin-wide priorities. <br /> <br />priority system.--In the United States, two major types of water-law doctrines <br />occur. The riparian doctrine holds that waters are appurtenant to the land <br />through which they flow. The appropriation doctrine holds that the waters <br />within a State are the property of the public, with a vested right to the use <br />of the appropriation: the first in time to use the water is first in right. <br />It is the establishment of the order of the first in time being first in right <br />that has been designated priority, and the system under which these water <br />rights are administered has been referred to as the "priority system.1I <br /> <br />raw water.--In this report, raw water refers to untreated municipal or <br />industrial water supplies. <br /> <br />recreation pool.--See reservoir-space allocation. <br /> <br />replacement storage.--A feature of transmountain diversions in Colorado. The <br />purpose of replacement storage is to store water during that part of the year <br />when runoff is at a peak and all rights are being satisfied downstream in the <br />basin, and to hold these waters for later release. Later release comes during <br />that part of the year when the snowmelt peak has ended, and runoff in the <br />basin is at a much slower rate. Water upstream from the transmountain- <br />diversion system in excess of minimum fish-flow requirement might still be <br />diverted, regardless of the date of the call on the river from which the <br />diversions arc made, provided a quantity equal to that diverted from the basin <br />be released from replacement storage to meet the demands of senior rights <br />downstream. <br /> <br />reservoir-space al1ocation.--Federally constructed reservoirs serve multiple <br />purposes. Space in these reservoirs is allocated to the various purp'oses. <br />This space, called pools, usually is defined by the bottom and the top eleva- <br />tion of the pool. Sediment accumulation necessitates periodic redefinition of <br />these top and bottom elevations. Terminology will vary slightly with the <br />agency operating the reservoir, and with the chief purpose for which the <br />reservoir was constructed. Space-allocation terms used in reservoirs located <br /> <br />ix <br />
