The four ponds have a combined total <br />storage capacity of 1334.2 AF. After subtracting the average atTnual Boxelder Ditch diversions, <br />associated with Kehn's share ownership into 'the ponds, the remaining marketable storage <br />capacity is 1010.4 AF. The capacities and total water surface areas of each pond for the <br />proposed final ]ayouut are given in Table 3.3. Pond I, the smallest, was limited in size by its <br />location. Il is between two utility easements and adjacent to compensatory wetlands in mining <br />Phase 3. Ponds ?and 3 were formed from what could have been a lamer pond in lTlltling <br />Phase 2. The two ponds were divided so that Pond 2, where the Boxelder diversion enters the <br />system, would have a larger surface area to depth ratio in order to limit evaporation losses from <br />stored augmentation water. Pond 4, the largest, is located ~~~here ITlllling is currently taking <br />place. <br />Tahlc 3.3 fond nata. <br />Attribute Pond 1 fond 2 fond 3 Pond 4 Total <br />~4ax, «'ater Surface Area (acres) S. i <br />- 22.9 3(i.b 66.ti 135.0 <br />~~1ax. ~~Vater Storaee (x'11`) 83.E 237.0 3~1.~ 661.E ~ 1334.2 <br />3.2 H~•draulic titructurrs <br />In order to move and manage the water contained ~~-it}Tin the ponds a number of hydraulic <br />structures have been proposed to interconnect the ponds and to allow fir the release of stored <br />water to the Cac1Te la Poudre River (F'oudre River).
