<br />co <br />~ <br />00 <br />C.J <br /> <br />"~,~ <br /> <br />About 7 Diles above the junction of East and West Divide <br /> <br />Creeks, Clear Creek enters West Divide Creek. An area of 200 acres <br /> <br />is irri~etee froD or on this creek, ano is short of ~ter after the <br /> <br />spring flood. East Divide and Clear Creek flcod flows are usually <br /> <br />adeouate, with available return flow, for all demands frem land out- <br /> <br />side the project, which might otherwise draw upon West Divide Creek, <br /> <br />and at times Clear Creek supplies much water to project land. <br /> <br />Project Canals <br /> <br />Just above tho junction of the east and west forks of <br /> <br />Divide Creek, the Multi Trins ditch, with a nominal capacity 6f 60 <br /> <br />second-feet oiverts water freo West Divide Creek for 1,400 acres. <br /> <br />Return flow from 3,300 acres of project land, lying directly above and <br /> <br />draining into West Divide Creek is, as water comnissioners' records <br /> <br />show, an important source of supply for this ditch after the flood <br /> <br />flow declines. <br /> <br />Four miles above the Multi Trina heaogete is that of the <br /> <br />West Divide Creek Ditch, with a maximun capacity of 15 second-feet <br /> <br />and commanding 800 acres. Return flow from 1,100 acres of project <br /> <br />land drains into West Divide Creek above this ditch. This headgate <br /> <br />is two niles below the mouth of Clear Creek. <br /> <br />The Porter Ditch heaorate is located just above the nouth <br /> <br />of Cherry Creek and the ditch can irrigate 1,700 acres. Its first <br /> <br />decree is the senior one on the project, and it receives return flow <br /> <br />25 <br />
