Show \ upland game. The remaining reservoir area is covered by low growing brush. This reservoir would serve 1,340 acres of supplemental service Indian land; 3,820 acres of supplemental service Class 1- 3 non- Indian land; and 2,070 acres of Class 6W non- Indian land. Annual flow through this reservoir would be 24,000 acre- feet of water. Bluebell Reservoir site consists of scattered cedar and juniper, with most of the area being covered by sagebrush. This reservoir would serve 3,760 acres of supplemental service Indian land; 7,890 acres of supplemental service Class 1- 3 non- Indian land; and 2,800 acres of Class 6W non- Indian land. There would be only 16,000 acre- feet flow from this reservoir since it is located above the aqueduct and would be filled by pumping. Altonah Reservoir is located above Flaming Gorge Aqueduct in the Upalco area. Uintah and White- rocks Reservoirs, proposed features of the Uintah Unit, would regulate fish bypasses and spills of Uintah Aqueduct along with stream gains for delivery through Monarch Canal at a constant year- round rate to Altonah Reservoir. Of the 945 acres to be inundated at normal water surface elevation, 330 acres would be irrigated farmland and 260 acres would be irrigated pasture. The remaining reservoir area is grazing land, covered by scattered cedar, juniper, and sagebrush throughout the nonfarmed area. The reservoir setting is in " foothill" country, as contrasted with the higher Uinta Mountain range to the north. This reservoir would serve 120 acres of full service Indian land; 9,900 acres of supplemental service Indian land; 7,080 acres of Class 1- 3 supplemental service non- Indian land; and 3,270 acres of Class 6W non- Indian land. Flow through this reservoir would be 66,000 acre- feet of water annually. Uinta Basin Distribution System The Uinta Basin Distribution System would consist of 160 miles of earth lined canal, 6 miles of concrete lined canal or tunnel, 18 miles of concrete pipeline or siphon, and 13 pumping plants. The canals would deliver 330,000 acre- feet of water annually for new and supplemental irrigation. Some canals would traverse presently irrigated farm lands. Other canals would traverse " foothill" 429 |
