~.-~ <br />'~ <br />Mr, Robert W. Shields Page 2 <br />February 28, 1980 <br />With regard to your request for more information concerning consump- <br />tive uses in the project area, the net evaporation losses from the reclaimed <br />lakes would be approximately 2, 92 acre-feet per acre of lake surface area, <br />This is based on studies made by the SCS on shallow lakes in the United <br />States, Information regarding the evaporation losses from the existing crops <br />in the project area may be obtained from the SCS, <br />The amount of water required for dust control, sanitation, or other <br />purposes associated with the proposed operation should be estimated by <br />someone who is an expert in gravel mining operation needs, The estimate <br />should be accurate enough for use with the well permit application and the <br />required plan for augmentation, <br />Very truly yours, <br />Q~+~ Q <br />Hal D, Simpson, Chief <br />Water Management Branch <br />HDS/RLS:mvf <br />Enclosure <br />cc: Mined Land Reclamation/ <br />Jim Clark, Div, Eng, <br /> <br />
