The bureau of reclamation hna
released n synottnta of Its report
of nn Investigation Into the prob
lem of refloodlng a portion of
Lower Klnmiith luko. In extremo
northern California, and of pro
viding better rcKiilntlnii of the
water surfaro of Tule lake.
The nrogrnm out linen would
require apeciul legislation before
It could he inndo effective. The
report Indlcnt.'B that tho work
railed for would require I U 7 4 .-

lease of paaiuro lamia would re
pay tho coat In about 12 yours.
A major consideration in diall
ing the pinna wna to luiprovo
Tule luko sump ns a bird refuge
and to restore Lower Klnmaih
lake as a wild waterfowl breeding
and fuelling grnuiida. The hlo
lnglcal survey co-operuled In the
survey.
Tho refloodlng nf Lower Kliiin

which now nffllct tho soulhfi-ti

pasture landa near Lower Klnm-

Tho synoptda of the report la

Out
ed, aa one of Its featurea, tho
partial unwutering of the bed of
Tulo lake and the Inclusion of
such landa aa a part of the farm
ed area of the project. Such par
tial iinwnterliig of the bed of
Tule Inko hua bucn accomplished
by tho construction of Clear luko
and (lerber reservolra toeother
with a diversion dam on Lost
lllvor and a 1200 accond-foot
capacity channel from thla dam to
the Klninuih river to regulate and
deflect Lost river floods, and tho
construction of dikes In Tule lake
sump to conflno return flow and
waste waters which enter Tulo
lake, within a sump area of ap
proximately 37.000 ecroa where
they mo evaporated.
During tho period of low run
off which has prevailed between
1918 nnd 19:7 the reservoirs and
diversion channel have been ado
nuato to prevent any flood flow
from l.oat river entering Tulo
lake. Iteturn flow from tho par
tially developed farming nrca out
side of tho retaining dikes was
evaporated from a part of the
area set nsldo for tho Bump. A
large part of tho sump area has
been leased for farming purposes
and tho net nccumutated revenues
therefrom of nearly $1,000,000
havo been set aside, ns provided
by law, In a fund to be applied
Inter to the repayment of tho
construction charges of tho Tule
Inko division of the project. With
the Increased fnnr.lng activltlea
on the area tributary to the Tule
Inko sump and below tho Lost

river diversion works, return flow
hua Increased materially In re
cent years and lands which have
been leased in the puat are being
flooded. Kvcn under normal con
dlllona of runoff tho loaned area
wit hiu tho sump will be flooded,
with resultant loss of revenue and
nn unusually high Inflow from
Lost river might even endanger
tho funned land of tho project
ouialdo tho retaining dikes of the
sump.
In the project operations Lower
Klamath lake, separated from
Tule lako by a range of hills, has
been unwntercd. That portion
lying In California bus been found
to he unsuitable for general farm
ing purposes becauao of soils and
alkali conditions. Tbe prevailing
westerly wIiiUb collect the dust
from this dry lake bed with the
result that the project Is sub
jected to dust storms of consld
ernblo magnitude. Tho Tule lake
sump haa been developed by the
U. S. biological survey as a bird
refuge but fluctuating water sur
faces are unsatisfactory for propa
gation and tho stngnant waters
cause botulism. It Is highly de
sirable that the community be
protected from tho dust nuisance,
that the bird refuge bo maintain
ed and extended to Include that
portion of Lower Klamath lake
in California, and that as much
aa possible of the leased lands be
retained In their present status
ns a source of revenuo to the pro
ject. To accomplish these results,
this report presents the follow
ing plan. Approximately 17,000
acres are to be set aside as a
central sump by dikes lower In
elevation than the present re
taining dikes protecting tbe set
tled nren. This would permit
the flooding of the outer sump
during periods of heavy Inflow
from Lost river but not endanger
tho developed farms and homes
outside the retaining dikes of the
total sump. It Is proposed to In
stall pumps of 160 sonond-foot
capacity In pump the excess water
of the sump which would not bo
removed by evaporation and de
liver them through a 7000-foot
tunnel Into the Lower Klamath
lake area where they would be
used flrat to Irrigate lands for
pasture purposes adjacent to the
lake and, second, for bird refuge
purposes In the Inko bed Itself,
Ample protection would bo pro
vided against flooding of entered
landa by the operation of the
proposed plan. Approximately
20.000 acres of highly productive
Tule lake lands heretofore leased
but now being rapidly lost by
encroaching waters, would be re
ed for leasing and Improved by
a system of drains and canals.
These lands should not be enter
ed as they will occasionally be
flooded. Hlx thousand acres of
good pasture land would be made
available for leasing on the west
side of Lower Klamath lake and
5000 acres of a poorer grade of
pasture lands on the east side.
The bird refuge In Tule lake
would be made to function prop
erly. A refuge of about 17.000
ncrea would be established In
Lower Klamath lake. The flood
ing of this lake for a bird refuge
and the Irrigation border lands
for pasture purposes would ellm
Inato the dust nuisance which
now endangers the health and
well-being of the community.
The estimated total cost of the
works to be built by the bureau
of reclamation la 1974.773 which
Includes $123,155 of project costs
assessed against the lands of Low
er Klamath lake In California
which, for repayment purposes,
will be eliminated from the pres
ent project, If developed Into a
bird refuge. It Is estimated that
the net returns from leasing of
the lands made available or re
tained for such purposes by the
proposed plan will be $61,700
annually for the first five years
and $98,775 annually thereafter.
On this basis net revenues would
