The District purchased 108,728 acre-feet of the <br />water made available to them. The District called for 91,710 acre-feet <br />of project water throughout the year. The,Project water was also reduced <br />by 8,350 acre-feet of evaporation. By the end of September, the <br />District had 33,268.91 acre-feet of 1988-1989 allocated water and <br />69,321.38 acre-feet of carryover water left in storage. Of the <br />91,710 acre-feet of Project releases, 6,699 acre-feet was for municipal <br />and industrial use. The Project water released from Pueblo Reservoir is <br />shown on exhibit 20. <br /> <br />K. Reservoir Storage Allocation Data <br /> <br />Tab le 9 presents the reservoi r storage all ocat i on data for the <br />Project's five reservoirs. <br /> <br />L. Reservoir Evaporation and Precipitation <br /> <br />Table 10 and table 11 present the monthly average evaporation and <br />precipitation from the four weather stations in the Fryingpan-Arkansas <br />Project System. The daily water surface evaporation is computed using <br />the factors during periods when the evapbration pan is not in service <br />and the reservoir is less than 100 percent ice covered. No evaporation <br />is assumed to occur during periods of 100 percent ice cover. <br /> <br />M. Flood Control Benefits <br /> <br />During water year 1989, there were no occurrences in which <br />Pueblo Dam was used to control flow in the. Arkansas River. <br /> <br />No flood control operation occurred on Ruedi Reservoir this year. <br /> <br />Table 12 shows the flood control benefi~s received on both Ruedi and <br />Pueblo Dams. <br />
