Howover, it is thought <br />that tho cost of tho roplaeoment capaoity with Bridgoport Roservoir <br />would bo equal to or l.ass thM the cost of Ruedi Roservoir. The addi_ <br />tional expense would be Harranted by the addition:).l pOWer which is need_ <br />ed near and in Grand Junction, Colorado. <br /> <br />Ruedi Reservoir.--The damsite is located on the FryingpM River about <br />15 miles above its confl uenoe Ylith the Rouring Fork River. l.n earth-fill <br />dam would create a reservoir having a capacity of 100,000 acre-foet at <br />normal water surface elevction. The resorvoir would inundate an aroa of <br />1,060 acres. <br /> <br />If the Ruodi Reservoir woro usod for roplaeoment, about 25.000 <br />acre-feot ef storage oc.paeity would be chArgoablo to tho Gunnison-l.rkanst\s <br />Projeot and the romainder to tho Bluo-South Projeot Projoct, which would <br />also use the rosorvoir for roplacomol~. Boe~uso tho infor~tionwas <br />avuiluble for Ruedi Reservoir, the ostimnto for u replc.cernnt roservoir <br />has boen based on this resorvoir.
