Final Forecast on
Year's Supply of
Water Released
After releasing detailed fore
cast! on prospective water sup
pliea for southern and south cen
tral Oregon oaiuraay, rne ica-eriil-state
cooperative snow sur
vey today made their final
monthly forecast of the season
for the whole state.
With a few exceptions in some
scattered sections of the state,
the 1950 water supply prospects
are good throughout, the survey
said, nearly equal to the excel
lent supplies of 1943 and 1946,
and better than last year in some
areas.
Deficiencies or shortages are
not to be expected anywhere in
the state if normal conditions
of snow-melt and runoff prevail,
the forecast, given as of April 1,
continued.
Sees New Records
New records of runoff will be
established in the Deschutes wa
tersheds, with unusually high
flows to be expected in Willam
ette river tributaries draining the
western Cascade slope from the
Coast fork and Row river north
to and including the Santiam
river.
Water stored In snow-packs Is
27 per cent greater than one
month ago, seven per cent less
than last year at this time and
36 per cent greater than in 1948.
Watershed soils were said by
the report to be believed wetter
than average, a factor favoring
well-sustained flow from the
snow-pack.
Reservoired water supplies
are, in general, "fair to good," the
report said.
