To all,
Denver Water would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for allowing us to make a release of 3,000 acre-feet from Dillon to Green Mountain for the 2004 substitution. This release will take place over Labor Day weekend and will allow rafters and kayakers to enjoy high
flows on the Blue River. The Division Engineer will asses a transit loss of 1.6% for these deliveries. Due to the unintended benefit Denver Water received from the Shoshone maintenance this year, like last year, we are providing a portion of this savings to Summit and Grand counties. The transit loss will be part of this water.
Denver Water will be working with local interest, the Bureau of Reclamation, Division of Wildlife, and the State Engineers Office when making these deliveries.
Thanks for the opportunity to make the most of a limited resource,
Denver Water
