Relation Central Utah Project; Western Waters Digital Library; the long term average would be about 4.3 43 43 feet below compromise elevation or less than 0.1 01 ol oi foot higher than historic conditions and about 0.5 05 05 foot lower than future without the project conditions under project conditions the surface area of the lake would average about 57000 acres average annual evaporation losses would be reduced by about 105000 acre feet a conservative estimate annual inflow to the lake would average about 491000 acre feet As a result of the bonneville unit M & I 1 system major features being jordanelle Jor danelle dam and reservoir on the upper provo river flows from the provo river would be reduced to an annual average of about 48000 acre feet which is only 36 percent of both the historic flow and the future without the project flow flows into utah lake from the spanish fork river would average about 69000 acre feet or about 34 percent higher than the average historic flow and the future without the project flow this would be accomplished by releasing additional project water from the enlarged strawberry reservoir inflows from other tributaries tributa ries would not change appreciably average outflows to the jordan river would be about 241000 acre feet which is only slightly below the historic average and about the same as the future without the project conditions project maximum flows to the jordan river would be less than under present conditions and minimums would be higher project spills to goshen bay would be released during high water years through the goshen bay dike an average of about 9000 acre feet would be spilled annually however actual spillage would occur during only 6 of the 44 years studied with a maximum spill being about 265000 acre feet during 1 year project return flows to goshen bay would average about 7000 acre feet annually total project inflow which includes groundwater estimates as well as spills and return flows would average about 43000 acre feet with a maximum of 308000 acre feet occurring during only 1 year and a minimum of about 15000 acre feet occurring during only 1 year 1 26
