Sources of Water for Perry Park
The District currently has 4,014 ac-ft/yr (acre feet per year) of nontributary Denver Basin aquifer water, and an additional 345.2 ac-ft/yr of senior direct flow, fully-consumable tributary water rights. These rights are reliable in both average and dry years. The District also has junior tributary alluvial aquifer well rights in the amount of 1,600 ac-ft/yr. These rights can provide a supplemental water supply to the District’s system when in priority, but are not reliable in a dry year. As such, the District’s total reliable water supply under varying hydrologic conditions is 4,359.2 ac-ft/yr.
