<br />e <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />USE OF EXISTING FACILITIES <br /> <br />I. FLORIDA PROJECT <br />(Also see pages 12 through 17 in the "Discussion of Seven Options" document <br />distributed at the December 16, 1996, meeting) <br /> <br />Citizen's Ouestions <br /> <br />Design and actual capacity; size of inactive pools and potential reuse; amount of <br />uncontracted yield; capability if any for enlargement; assessment of whether conservation <br />measures, other efficiency measures, or operational changes could make additional water <br />available, and if so, how much, when, and where; how water is allocated and how actually <br />used; what quantities of water are allocated/contracted for but not actually used; what <br />quantities of water are contracted for irrigation use but actually used/applied for <br />residential purposes, hobby farms, subdivided lands; inventory and diagram all return <br />flows. <br /> <br />Reclamation's Responses <br /> <br />1. REOPERATION STUDIES OF EXISTING FACILITIES <br /> <br />A. <br /> <br />Design and actual capacity: <br /> <br />. Lemon Reservoir <br />Active Capacity <br />Inactive Capacity <br />Dead Capacity <br />Total Capacity <br /> <br />= 39,030 acre-feet <br />= 762 acre-feet <br />= 354 acre-feet <br />= 40,146 acre-feet <br /> <br />. Sediment inflow has not significantly reduced the design capacity of the <br />reservoir. Sediment inflow is estimated to be about 700 acre-feet over the <br />100-year life of the Project. <br /> <br />B. Size of inactive pool and potential for reuse: <br /> <br />. fnactive Capacity = 762 acre-feet <br /> <br />. Inactive pool could be tapped however modifications to the existing outlet <br />works would be require. <br /> <br />. Dead pool is inaccessible by gravity means. Would require pumping. <br /> <br />'*.,. 1/10/97 -- PREUMINARY -- SUB.JECT To REVISION -- FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY.. <br />
