water supply system, and evaluated alternatives for future raw water supplies.

for numerous City water rights applications. These applications included:
Changes of use from irrigation to municipal use.
Changes of use from direct flow to storage.
Changes in place of storage for storage decrees.
New storage appropriations and quantification of the timing, amount, and
location of lawn irrigation return flows within the City.
The largest of these projects was a water rights change of use for six irrigation

Deere & Ault staff assisted in the settlement negotiations associated
with these water rights applications.
