Where this page's figures come from
Generated 2026-08-28 02:53 by Hydrohistorian. Sources: DWR HydroBase snapshot HydroBase_CO_20260707 (history) + CDSS REST (current), USGS NWIS cross-checks. Engine v0.5.0 (5cd37f7) — every figure regenerates from this named code version and data image.

Which of its rights are out of priority?
Not computable for this structure: no decreed right on file, so there is no priority to test.
Recorded use (last 15 years on record)
In a median year this structure has a recorded diversion of 2,716 AF. Its most recent year on record, 2025, came in at 2,593 AF — 96% of that, and 5th lowest of the 15 years with a recorded volume.
This structure records both diversions and reservoir releases — they are separate water movements and are accounted separately below.
| Year | Diverted (AFA volume: one acre covered a foot deep, about 326,000 gallons -- roughly a suburban household's outdoor use for a year.) | Compared with its own record | Released (AF) | Days recorded | Peak (cfs) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2011 | 4,905 | 15th lowest of 15 · 181% of median | — | 263 | 16.7 |
| 2012 | 4,217 | 14th lowest of 15 · 155% of median | — | 321 | 15.4 |

Trends for this structure
Recorded use shows no clear trend over its last 15 recorded years — which is itself worth knowing.
How good is our record of it?
Grade B (7/10 points) — the components below are the finding; the letter alone is not.
The rubric, component by component
| Check | State | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| identity | complete | name, type, and water source all on file |
| decreed rights | absent | no water rights cached for this WDID |
| diversion record | present | 16634 measured days; currency unknown (no data-coverage date to compare against) |
| record continuity | continuous | 100% of the irrigation seasons in 1950-2025 carry measured days |
| published-record stability | stable | no upstream revisions recorded against this structure |
