<br />iI'lt"'. ~., <br />::J ',_) .,:. ...: ~J :.~ <br /> <br />Draft: April 21, 1994 <br /> <br />entire 1952 to 1990 period to compute revised Blaney-Criddle <br />rates for the four areas (North Fork/Smith Fork, Lower <br />Gunnison, Upper Uncompahgre, Lower Uncompahgre). <br /> <br />2.) Recompute 1981-1990 Blaney-Criddle consumptive use rates <br />using Montrose and Ouray climate station data. <br /> <br />3.) Use rates as provided <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Use rates as provided: <br /> <br />Upper Uncompahgre area contains a relatively small <br />amount (7%) of irrigated acreage in the expanded network <br />portion of the basin; (estimated acreages: Upper <br />Uncompahgre: 14005, Lower Uncompahgre: 81255, North/Smith <br />Forks: 42340, Lower Gunnison: 42040) <br /> <br />future modifications to irrigated acreage and <br />cropping patterns may be warranted pending results of <br />CDWR/SEO Reclamation irrigated acreage inventory <br />effort; <br /> <br />-- this <br />funding <br />relative <br /> <br />is the most pragmatic option given <br />constraints (minor improvement in <br />to effort required) <br /> <br />time and <br />estimates <br /> <br />12 <br />
