A revised table of initial areas and <br /> <br /> <br />oapacities of John Martin Reservoir prepared by the Corps of Engineers <br />has been adopted. A minor inaocuraoy in the exhibit showing State line flow <br />has been co rreoted in that and related tabulations. Suoh additions to and <br />revisions of the exhibit data, in the interest" of completeness and <br />aacuracy, have not changed the general showings of streamflow usable for <br /> <br />irrigation, or of historio diversion relations between the two States, or <br /> <br />of State line flows divertible and usable in ~.nsas, which were before the <br /> <br />United States Supreme Court when its Opinion of Deoember 6, 194} was <br />entered. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The assembled streamflow and diversion data are oonsidered to <br /> <br />be reliable, and of an accuracy equal to or greater than the accuracy of <br /> <br />any aesumption~ which may be involved in their analyses or thai~ <br />applioatione in reservoir and river. operation studies. At the same time <br /> <br />the data are subjeot.to degrees of inaccuraoy inherent. or recognized as <br /> <br />unavoidable and allowable, in msasurements and records of total stream- <br /> <br />flows, ditch diversions, and related volumee of flowing water. The <br />oalculated and estimated quantities included in these tabulations. based <br />on correlations. with recorded data, are equally imperfsct, though little <br />if any less accurate. Under the airallmstances of ahannel stability and <br />measurement conditions that prevail at river gaging stations and ditah <br />rating flumes covered by the attached tabulations, perfect accuracy is <br />not attainable, and some degree of inaccuracy is to be expected. <br /> <br />Probable inaocuracies in diversion data are believed to be <br /> <br />relatively minor in extent. and of a charaoter that tend to offset one <br />..6. <br /> <br />,I <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />.' <br /> <br />'. <br />
