Show 5. Recording mainstream depletions below Hoover Dam. On the basis of calendar years this tabulation indicates the depletions computed by an inflow-outflow method of the mainstream below Hoover Dam. 6. Recording flood control operations of Lake Mead. On a monthly basis records are kept of the spring flood-control operations at Lake Mead. This procedure involves obtaining inflow forecasts and comparing releases of water from Lake Mead with the regulations of the Corps of Army Engineers. 7. Computing "diminutions" in generation of hydroelectric energy at Hoover Dam caused by operation of Colorado River Storage Project reservoirs: Making these computations involves checking the computations of the Region 3 office of the Bureau of Reclamation and comparing the results with calculations made independently in the Commission office. 8. Keeping a Lake Mead water budget. Detailed computations of the water budget at Lake Mead are being made in order to define the unmeasured inflow, bank storage, etc. By means of graphs and tables the progress of the storage of water in Lake Mead is followed. Forecasts of Stream Flow Forecasts of water supply have not been made by the Engineering Department, nor have any findings of fact pertaining to water deliveries or stream depletions been made by the Commission. Forecasts of stream flow made by various other agencies are to be found in the files of the Commission. Pollution of Interstate Waters of the Colorado In 1960 the United States Public Health Service, following the procedures of Public Law 660, 84th Congress, 2d Session, as amended, called a conference on Colorado River Pollution in Phoenix, Arizona. At this Conference it was determined that a study of the pollution problem in the Colorado River Basin was needed. It was decided to make the study and the scope was outlined in such a manner that the pollution problem would include all aspects of water quality. The original proposed study was to take six years for completion. Apparently the immediate reason for 27 |
