Show CALIFORNIA DEFENDANTS Exhibit No. 2213 Identification: Aug. 7, 1957 Admitted: Aug. 7, 1957 Estimate of Future Average Annual Natural River Loss Colorado River Hoover Dam to International Boundary (Unit: 1,000 Acre-Feet) Flow of Natural River Losses, Colorado River Hoover Dam to Inter-below Hoover Dam national Boundary 1. 1914-45 Historic Average 13,694.0 1,168.0 2. 1946-51 Historic Average 11,804.3 971.7 Decrease [1 minus 2] (a) 1,889.7 (c) 196.3 3. Future Average 9,000.0 680.41 Decrease [2 minus 3] (b)2,804.3 (d)291.31 xFuture decrease in loss is assumed to have the same relation to future decrease in flows that the historic decrease in loss, 1914-45 compared to 1946-51, had to historic decrease in flows for those periods. Thus, future decrease in loss (d) was determined by solving for (d) in the formula: a c Future loss was then determined by subtracting this future decrease (d) from the 1946-51 historic average loss. The future average annual loss, 680,400 acre-feet, is rounded to 700,000 acre-feet. |
