Where this page's figures come from
Generated 2026-09-05 07:17 by Hydrohistorian. Sources: DWR HydroBase snapshot HydroBase_CO_20260707 (history) + CDSS REST (current), USGS NWIS cross-checks. Engine v0.5.0 (e1cc9aa) — every figure regenerates from this named code version and data image.

What is in the bundle
rights.csv— every decreed right, most senior first, with admin numbers, dates, amounts, uses and case numbers.annual_use.csv— recorded diversion by year, with releases accounted separately.curtailment_now.csv— each right's current priority status and how often it was out across analog years.court_cases.csv— the cases attached to its rights.co_parties.csv— the other structures that were parties to those cases. Not available anywhere else.call_climatology.csv— how often each right has been out of priority by week of season, with confidence intervals and the seasons the record could actually judge.README.txt— provenance, methods, limits, disclaimer, and links back to DWR's own records for verification.

Joined on this structure’s own WDID as DWR
records it on the dam. Hazard class describes the
consequence of failure, not the likelihood of it.
DWR’s dam record.
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 4 years on record)
Years far under the decreed amount? That gap has a name — paper water vs. wet water, explained on this structure.
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) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1971 | — | no recorded volume | 49,964 | 0 | — |
| 1980 | — | no recorded volume | 19,805 | 0 | — |
| 1981 | — | no recorded volume | 367 | 0 | — |
| 1983 | — | no recorded volume | 9,176 | 0 | — |
How good is our record of it?
Grade C (5/10 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 | 399 measured days; currency unknown (no data-coverage date to compare against) |
| record continuity | sparse | 15% of the irrigation seasons in 1971-1983 carry measured days |
| published-record stability | stable | no upstream revisions recorded against this structure |
