V' ...... <br /> <br />If the Army Corps of Engineers permits the permanent storage pool in Chatfield to be <br />increased, Chatfield could become a primary alternate place of storage for the Barr decrees, <br />while Barr would be used for storage of re-useable effluent or additional "first use" water. <br /> <br />Municipal Storage <br /> <br />Barr Lake and the Henrylyn Reservoirs <br /> <br />The Barr Lake Plan contemplates obtaining a secure source of suitable quality irrigation water <br />which is available to the Barr Lake shareholders on an "as needed" basis. The Comparties' <br />would no longer need to divert water from the South Platte during the winter months and <br />store it for future use. This permits the storage capacity of the Companies' reservoirs to be <br />used for other purposes, particularly storage of re-useable effluent for future exchanges or re- <br />use for unrestricted non-potable sources. If instead the renovated effiuent is stored below <br />Barr Lake in the Beebe Draw alluvium, Barr Lake cim be used for storage of "first use" water <br />for all municipal purposes. <br /> <br />More specifically, the substantial growth of transmountain and non-tributary return flows into <br />the South Platte River, when treated to an adequate standard for unrestricted agricultural re- <br />use, can provide a secure source of water for the Companies' shareholders during those <br />months the water is needed. This secure source could be a 100 cfs flow of reuseable effiuent <br />during the irrigation months or previously stored effiuent pumped from the Beebe Draw <br />alluvium, as discussed below. <br /> <br />With Barr Lake and the other reservoirs free from the need to store an entire summer's <br />irrigation water, the 50,000 acre feet of existing storage space in the Companies' reservoirs <br /> <br />10 <br />
