Current administration
● In priority — no active call senior to this structure's rights affects its district (23 active call(s) checked).
Which of its rights get called out?
In the 5 past years whose flows most resemble this one (2024, 2019, 2017, 2018, 2023): this structure's most junior right was out of priority in 12 of the next 12 weeks at least once; its most senior right in 12. Its other 1 rights fall between those ends, each taken in priority order.

How this outlook is built, and what it is not
Flows at SLOUGH DITCH around 2026-08-09 (the newest reading on file) sit at 94% of that gage's own median for this window. The 5 most similar past years with a complete administration record (1950–2026) supply the history; each week asks whether a call senior to a given right's admin number was in force that week of the analog year, using the same controlling-call-per-day computation as the Legal tab. Priority is per RIGHT: a structure with several decrees loses its most junior first, and the columns above are the two ends of its range. A frequency among named historical years, not a probability from a model, and not a forecast of what the division engineer will do. It says how often years whose flow resembled this one were under a call senior to this right in a given week. Snowpack, storage, and the actual administrative decisions of a given season are not modelled. Check the analog years listed: if they do not resemble this year to you, the outlook does not either.
Where it sits in line
Priority 1902-03-04 — 161st most senior of the 1815 structures with decreed rights in this water districtDWR's administrative subdivision of a river basin; the unit calls are usually stated in..
Under prior appropriationColorado's rule for sharing water: first in time, first in right. Age decides, not proximity or need., everything ahead of it in this line is satisfied in full before it receives any water. Immediately ahead: COORS B4 (1902-03-04). Immediately behind: COORS B6 (1902-03-04).
On MAINSTEM at river mile 52.2, it is 69th of 107 down the reach. Immediately upstream: SLOUGH DITCH. Immediately downstream: LEES BAUGH DITCH.
Position on the modelled network, not a claim about whose water this is — a stream carries water from many rights at once, and diverted water returns to it.
Decreed rights (3)
| Admin noDWR's numeric encoding of a water right's seniority. Smaller is more senior; the integer part counts days from 1849-12-31 to the date that ranks the right. | AppropriatedWhen water was first put to beneficial use. It sets seniority unless a prior adjudication date is later. | AdjudicatedWhen the water court confirmed the right. A use decreed in 1975 was not a decreed use in 1955, however old the appropriation is. | AbsoluteA right actually put to use, as opposed to conditional -- a placeholder for a use not yet made. | ConditionalA right reserving a place in line for a use not yet made; it must be diligently pursued or it lapses. | Units | UsesWhat the court said this water may be used for -- irrigation, municipal supply, augmentation and so on. | Case |
