Excerpt from Fifteenth Biennial Report of the State Engineer to the Governor of Wyoming: 1919-1920
Reservoirs. Permits issued for reservoirs Show a small gain in numbers and a decided gain in the amount of storage proposed. The principal cause of the quickening of interest in reservoirs was the short °water supply over the State during the 1919 irrigation season. Direct flow rights that had before seemed adequate were in many cases without water during this season. Heavy losses by crop failures in different sections resulted, and forcibly called the attention of water users to the need of conservation of water by storage during-the spring flood period to supplement the season of low stream discharge during July and August.
