Published April 13 and 20. 2005_____________________ PUBLIC NOTICE Irrigation Storage Water - Willow Creek Dam and Reservoir Drought conditions in Mor row County, Oregon led to a declaration of drought emer gency by Gov ernor Ted Kulon- goski on April 7. 2005. The Bureau of Reclamation in co ordination w ith the U S Army Corps o f Engineers (Corps), which constructed, operates and maintains Willow Creek Dam and Reservoir, is current ly accepting applications from water users seeking to enter into temporary contracts for the 2005 irrigation season for the use of stored water in Willow Creek Reservoir to supplement existing water supplies on lands that have water rights and are already irrigated All applica tions must be submitted in w rit ing and mailed, postmarked no later than May 14. 2005. to the Bureau of Reclamation. Atten tion: PN-3324. 1150 N. Cur tis Road. Suite 100. Boise ID 83706-1234. Please note that application acceptance is not a guarantee that a temporary contract will be offered Each application must pro vide the following: (1) the total quantity of water, in acre-feet, desired from storage for use during the 2005 irrigation sea son. (2) the approximate peri od of use, (3) the estimated rate of water application expressed in acre-feet per day over the period of use. (4) the total num ber of acres of land to be irri gated. (5) a map showing the location of the land to be irri gated within each quarter-quar ter section (a 40 acre tract) and the location of the point o f di version from Willow Creek, and (6) a description o f the method of diversion. An exam ple form o f application data sheet is available upon request The cost of the storage water under a temporary contract would be $8 per acre-foot plus payment of a contract admin istration fee. The minimum contract administration fee is typically $100. In the event that the costs of ev aluating and processing the application are in excess of the minimum con tract administration fee. a state ment of the reimbursable costs for which pay ment is required would be provided to the ap plicant. Due to abnormally dry con ditions this winter and spring, the Corps was not able to fill the reservoir significantly above its normal low winter pool elevation of 2.063 feet. Given the current below aver age amount of stored water and tentative plans to release water for irrigation use. Willow Creek reserv oir could be drawn down near elevation 2.047 feet, the minimum pool elevation The reservoir has been drawn down near this low level only once since it was constructed In 1992, the reservoir reached elevation 2.050 feet after not filling in the winter and spring and upon releasing water for irrigation due to the state de clared drought In the event that the total amount of stored water request ed exceeds the total amount available for contracting, the total amount of storage water available would be divided by the total number of acres to be irrigated so that each applicant would receive an equal amount of stored water per acre All losses incurred in convey ing the stored water to the point of di version from its release at Wil low Creek Dam would be borne by the contractors A permit or limited license to divert stor age water would also be re quired and would be obtained ('ontinned on next page »
