<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />C \.~ :;; .~tt ~7 ~l <br /> <br />(6) Develop Phase la Model is approx. 80 <br />% complete, This phase, which includes key <br />structures operating on a monthly time step, <br />includes approx. 510 diversions, 12 <br />reservoirs, and 28 instream flows. Note that <br />later model development is expected to <br />include other structures in an aggregated <br />fashion, weHs, and a daily time step. <br /> <br />Consumptive Use and Water <br /> <br />Budget Component Progress since the <br />last newsletter and AC meeting is as foHows (the <br />number in parentheses refers to the contract <br />Task): <br />. (I) Irrigated Lands Assessment is approx. <br />85% complete. GIS coverages have been <br />developed which identifY irrigated fields, <br />crop type, irrigation type, surface water <br />source and ground water source. In addition, <br />native lands have been classified into the <br />foHowing categories: hydrophytes, <br />deciduous trees, coniferous trees, bare <br />ground, high density native, medium density <br />native and low density native. <br />. (2) Enhance StateCU and Determine Unit <br />Potential CU is approx. 60% complete. <br />Climate data has been coHected and 10caHy <br />calibrated Blaney-Criddle coefficients <br />developed. <br />. (3) Historic Crop CU is approx. 30% <br />complete. Nine (9) key climate stations <br />have been identified (Alamosa, Center, Del <br />Norte, Hermit, Monte Vista, Manassa, <br />Saguache, Great Sand Dunes and Blanca) <br />and missing data estimated. In addition, soil <br />moisture capacities and ditch system <br />efficiencies have been estimated for <br />agricultural lands. <br /> <br />Relational System Integration <br /> <br />Component Progress since the last <br />newsletter and AC meeting as foHows (the <br />number in parentheses refers to the contract <br />Task): <br />. (2) Database design issues related to weH <br />and ground water data continued. <br />Population of the database with data unique <br />to the San Luis VaHey has continued. <br />. (3) Software enhancements required to <br />accommodate daily data and weHs <br />continued. <br /> <br />D:I WlRioGrandelAdvisorylNews99 I 10 I.doc <br /> <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Spatial System Integration <br /> <br />Component Progress since the last <br />newsletter and AC meeting is as foHows: <br /> <br />. (I) Acquire GIS Coverages is complete. <br />Approx. nineteen coverages are now <br />available via the WWW. <br />. (2) WeH File Analysis, a program required <br />to identifY unique, large capacity weHs by <br />comparing information in. both the weH <br />permit and water right data files is approx. <br />95% complete. <br />. (3) Ground Water Model System Integration <br />is approx. 95% complete. This includes <br />misceHaneous activities related to <br />developing a data centered, GIS based <br />ground water model. <br /> <br />Other RGDSS Activities In addition <br />to the consultant activities described above, other <br />progress since the last newsletter and AC <br />meeting as foHows: <br /> <br />. An MOU required to share the cost of <br />monitoring . new stream gages and <br />observation weHs constrUcted under RGDSS <br />was executed with the RGWCD. <br />. The USGS continued to perform <br />geophysical logging on the RGWCD's <br />existing eonfmed observation weH network. <br />In adqition, they have provided technical <br />assistance related to the weH construction <br />and testing program. <br /> <br />Additional Information For <br />additional information regarding RGDSS, see <br />our web site or contact Ray Bennett, RGDSS <br />Project Manager at one of the foHowing: <br />.
