21 <br />Step 7 <br />'/ <br /> <br />Compare expected with actual flows for Dry Fork and lick Creek. <br />If expected is less than actual flow then augmentation is not <br />needed, <br />Step 8. Tf expected flow is greater than actual flow in Dry Fork and/or <br />lick Creek then compute depletion by subtracting actual flow from <br />' expected flow. <br />Step 9. Determine if it is a wet, dry or average year by the following <br />' comparisons: <br />' Total April & May Ftow at Minnesota Gage <br />Wet Year: Greater than 10,000 AF <br />' Average Year; Less than 10,000 AF, but <br />greater than 7500 AF <br />Dry Year: Less than 1500 AF <br />., <br />Step 10. Calculate augmentation payments. Payments shall equal depletions <br />except that maxiniun augmentation shall not exceed the amounts <br />(PG and PL) shown in Table 3. <br />' Augmentation payments shall not exceed the ratio of retreat mined <br />' area to total potential mined area as described by the fallowing <br />equation: <br />P = 0.146 ApPp+0.730 AL PL <br />' Where P = Augmentation payment <br /> Ap = Area (mi.2) retreat mined under Dry fork <br />' Pp = Maximum month payment for Dry fork - Table 3 <br /> AL = Area (mi.2) retreat mined under Lick Creek <br />' PL = Maximus month payment for Lick Creek -Table 3 <br /> <br />' Step Ii. WECC shall provide the amount of augmentation w ater needed (P) <br />' by bypassing (not diverting) water it Controls ds shown in <br />' Table 4. <br />
