The required CBT Project repla- <br />cement release for this study is the historic requirement <br />taken from the Colorado River Accounting Sheets on file at <br />the South Platte River Projects Office in Loveland. Colorado. <br /> <br />45 <br /> <br />Bypass of Inflow for DownstreamPriorR ights. Depleted reservoir <br />inflow is bypassed to supply downstream senior <br />water rights when there is a CBT replacement requirement <br /> <br />or a Natural Flow shortage demand. <br /> <br />A minimum <br /> <br />re lease of 60 ft3/s during the irrigation season (Apr1115 through <br />October 15 for this study) is made or up to the depleted reservoir <br />inflow if necessary to meet downstream natural flow demands. <br /> <br />46 <br /> <br />Release from Green Mountain to Meet'Natural Flow Demand. In <br />addition to the bypass of inflow release from Green Mountain <br />Reservoir storage is made if necessary to meet the downstream <br />natural flow demand. The modeling criteria for minimum flows <br />at Cameo during the April 15 - October 15 period were based on <br />low flows during 1977 and were set at 1750 ft3/s for April 15 <br />through June. 1B10 ft3/s for July. 1760 ft3/s for August. 1735 <br />ft3/s for September. and 1735 ft3/s for October 1-15. Releases <br />for natural flow demands from Green Mountain Reservoir were <br /> <br />made after CBT Project replacement releases. bypass of the <br />depleted reservoir inflow. and Dillon exchanges with Williams <br />Fork Reservoir and Dillon - Williams Fork - Green Mountain <br /> <br />exchanges were accomplished. A shortage on the natural flow <br /> <br />release was programmed to occur when 66.000 acre feet had been <br />
