<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Inflow-outflow computations were made on a daily basis <br /> <br />for the months of July, August and September. The daily amount of <br /> <br />water passing Kersey that reached the Narrows reservoir was first <br /> <br />computed and from this amount the exchangeable water was determined. <br /> <br />The following general rules were established to determine <br /> <br />the amount of exchangeable water from the Narrows reservoir up to <br /> <br />the Bijou and Riverside Ditches: <br />1. There was no exchange potential when there was no demand <br /> <br />on the river. <br /> <br />2. The daily exchangeable water was considered to be all <br /> <br />flows in excess of 25 c. f. s. (It is believed that from <br /> <br />a practical standpoint at least 25 c. f. s. would be lost <br /> <br />in operating the river.) <br />3. The upstream ditches must have a demand and the capacity <br /> <br />to divert the amount of water which could be exchanged. <br /> <br />The monthly exchangeable amount of water. under historic <br /> <br />conditions, from Narrows up to the Bijou and Riverside Ditches are <br /> <br /> <br />presented on Table 1. <br /> <br /> <br />B. WELD COUNTY SITE TO BURLINGTON DITCH <br /> <br /> <br />The exchange potential from the Weld County Site to the <br /> <br /> <br />Burlington Ditch was also studied for the summer months of July, <br /> <br />August and September. The daily stream flow records and irrigation <br /> <br />diversions between the Denver and Kersey gages were tabulated on <br /> <br />the dates of their occurrences and in their respective position on <br /> <br />- 6 - <br />
