A 1979 amendment to the <br /> <br />agreement permits any exchange credits at Blue Mesa to be carried over <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />from year to year. The records indicate that the USBR began to carryover <br /> <br />exchange credits in 1980. <br /> <br />The physical exchange of storage water between Taylor Park and Blue <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mesa was not simulated and the model only kept track of the total amount <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />of water available to UVWUA, regardless of whether some part of it could <br /> <br />be physically stored at Blue Mesa. Accordingly, UVWUA storage at Taylor <br /> <br />Park was not limited in the Model by an amount of exchange water on <br /> <br />account at Blue Mesa, all storage releases to meet irrigation demands at <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />WBlA, Inc. 1909 Broadway, #3, Boulder, Colorado 80302 <br /> <br />I <br />
