<br />. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />at the several pcints cf diversion to Weber Reservoir were <br /> <br />deter~ined fro~ the relation of altitude anJ runoff. The values <br /> <br />Rt points of diversion, in terms of :~ncos gage flows are: <br /> <br />East Me.ncos River................. <br />Middle Mimcos River............... <br /> <br />14.651. <br />12.80 <br />27.45 <br />72.55 <br /> <br />COI'1bined... . . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . .. . . . . <br />Non-storable..................... . <br /> <br />Stcr~ble flow fer Weber Rescrvcir durinG the years of <br /> <br />record at Mancos WflS therefore computed 3S follows: o.fter May 1, <br /> <br />all flow in excess of 120 second-feet would be storable until <br /> <br />flow at the gcge re3ched 166 sec8nd-feet; paging station fluws in <br /> <br />excess of 166 second-feet and less th~n 729 second-feet would be <br /> <br />27.451. storable; "bove 729 second-feet, 200 second-feot (the <br /> <br />capacity of the Middle 1hncos f3eder canal) would be storable. <br /> <br />Increasing the size of this feeuer would be cf no help in filling <br /> <br />the reservoir in years of low runoff, as flows of 729 seconJ-feet <br /> <br />or clore occurred only in the yenrs of very high runoff. No water <br /> <br />is storable after June, except from short sur;wer storms which could <br /> <br />probnbly not be capturec, until October 1. <br /> <br />Between OctobRr 1, and April 30, following, weather <br /> <br />conditions control canal operaticns. Stre3D flow available at <br /> <br />points of diversion is consillered availnc,le in the following <br /> <br />amounts: <br /> <br />16 <br /> <br />?. '3 ':,'5 <br />
