<br />o 20 <br />C\l <br />Crj <br /> <br />RIO GRANDE COMPACT COMMISSION REPORT <br /> <br />r . <br />"_.J <br /> <br />The equipment, method and frequency of measurements at <br />'_ each gaging station shall be sufficient to obtain records <br />at least equal in accuracy to those classified as "good" by <br />the U.S. Geological Survey. Water-stage recorders on the <br />reservoirs specifically named in Article II of the Compact <br />shall have sufficient range below maximum reservoir level <br />to record major fluctuations in storage. Staff gages may <br />be used to determine fluctuations below the range of the <br />water-stage recorders on these and other large reservoirs, <br />and staff gages may be used upon approval of the Commission <br />in lieu of water-stage recorders on small reservoirs, <br />provided that the frequency of observation is sufficient in <br />each case to establish any material changes in water levels <br />in such reservoirs. <br /> <br />{. " <br />. , <br /> <br />RESERVOIR CAPACITIES L1- <br /> <br />Colorado shall file with the Commission a table of <br />areas and capacities for each reservoir in the Rio Grande <br />Basin above Lobatos constructed after 1937; New Mexico <br />shall file with the Commission a table of areas and capac- <br />ities for each reservoir in the Rio Grande Basin between <br />Lobatos and San Marcial constructed after 1929; and Texas <br />shall file with the Commission tables of areas and capaci- <br />ties for Elephant Butte Reservoir and for all other reser- <br />voirs actually available for the storage of water between <br />Elephant Butte and the first diversion to lands under the <br />Rio Grande Project. <br /> <br />Whenever it shall appear that any table of areas and <br />capacities is in error by more than five per cent, the <br />Commission shall use its best efforts to have are-survey <br />made and a corrected table of areas and capacities to be <br />substituted as soon as practicable. To the end that the <br />Elephant Butte effective supply may be computed accurately, <br />the Commission shall use its best efforts to have the rate <br />of accumulation and the place of deposition of silt in <br />Elephant Butte Reservoir checked at least every three years. <br /> <br />ACTUAL SPILL il <br /> <br />(a) Water released from Elephant Butte in excess of <br />Project requirements, which is currently passed through <br />Caballo Reservoir, prior to the time of spill, shall be <br />deemed to have been Usable Water released in anticipation <br />of spill, or Credit Water if such release shall have been <br />authorized. <br /> <br />1 Amended at Eleventh Annual Meeting, February 23, 1950. <br />2 Adopted at Fourth Annual Meeting, February 24, 1943. <br /> <br />~{i:~1,~f:!:~;!,;~~ <br /> <br />.... .j".
