West Slope Collection System <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />In water year 1985, all 16 diversions in the West Slope collection <br />system will be in operation. The exchange of up to 3,000 acre-feet of water <br />into the Roaring Fork River with the Twin Lakes Reservoir and Canal Company <br />system will be made again this year. Under the terms of the exchange the <br />water is to be furnished to the Canal Company at Twin Lakes. This exchange <br />will be done through and by means of project diversions and storage in <br />exchange for the Canal Company making equivalent releases from the head- <br />waters of the Roaring Fork River. The Canal Company's releases would other- <br />wise be diverted through their collection and diversion system. The <br />exchange will be operated according to the agreement with the Twin Lakes <br />Reservoir and Canal Company (appendix B). <br /> <br />D. Turquoise Lake <br /> <br />Inflow to Turquoise Lake for water year 1985 will be from four <br />sources: Busk-I van hoe imports, Fryingpan-Ark ansas Project imports. <br />Homestake Project imports, and native flow of Lake Fork. Estimates of <br />inflow from Busk-Ivanhoe and native Lake Fork were made using historical, <br />records and probability analysis. Project water imports are estimated to be <br />69,200 acre-feet. <br /> <br />The minimum release into Lake Fork is 15 ft3/s, or natural inflow, whichever <br />is less. <br /> <br />The planned operation of Turquoise Lake for water year 1985 will be to draw <br />the reservoir down to allow storage of project imports, Busk-Ivanhoe <br />imports, and Homestake Project imports. Release from Turquoise Lake will be <br />made into Mt. Elbert Conduit at a rate to fill Twin Lakes and then in late <br />January through April to evacuate the remaining water necessary to allow the <br />imported water to be stored. <br /> <br />The Homestake Project water wi 11 be imported to fi 11 their contracted <br />storage space during the summer months. <br /> <br />17 <br />
