The water is used for irrigated <br /> <br />crops and for livestock pasture. All irrigated lands receive <br /> <br />less than a full all season water supply. The present and <br /> <br />future use of water is expected to remain about the same as <br /> <br />there :appears to be little opportunity for any new development. <br />The estimated stream depletion is summarized in the following <br /> <br />table :, <br /> <br />Present and Anticipated Stream Depletion - Units Acre Feet <br /> <br />':'A verage annual stream depletion <br />by irrigati_on <br />Average annual stream depletion <br />by domestic and livestock <br />use and reservoir evaporation <br />Total annual stream depletion <br /> <br />2,600 <br /> <br />400 <br />3,000 <br /> <br />>:'Includes allowance for natural vegetation, seeped <br />land and 1^1ater surfaces without limitation to man- <br />made depletions. <br /> <br />42 <br />
