SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Reclamation delivers Colorado River
water to water users for diversion and
beneficial consumptive use in the States
of Arizona, California, and Nevada. The
Consolidated Decree of the United
States Supreme Court in the case of
Arizona v. California, et al., entered
March 27, 2006, (547 U.S. 150 (2006))
requires the Secretary of the Interior to
prepare and maintain complete,
detailed, and accurate records of
diversions of water, return flow, and
consumptive use and make these
records available at least annually. This
information is needed to ensure that a
State or a water user within a State does
not exceed its authorized use of
Colorado River water. Water users are
obligated by provisions in their water
delivery contracts to provide
Reclamation information on diversions
and return flows. Reclamation
determines the consumptive use by
subtracting return flow from diversions
or by other engineering means. Without
the information collected, Reclamation
could not comply with the order of the
United States Supreme Court to prepare
and maintain detailed and accurate
records of diversions, return flow, and
consumptive use. This information
collection is required to obtain a benefit.
Reclamation collects this information
using Reclamation forms LC–72, LC–
