Storage of water on Cache La Poudre and Big Thompson Rivers. s are representatives of those where the whole depth of waterimpounded is due to an embankment, while those which require bothcuts and embankments are exemplified in the Larimer and Weld andWindsor reservoirs. Fig. 10 shows cross sections through theembankments and outlets of a number of the reservoirs examined. 90 The most practicable height for dams in the canyons of mountainstreams must be determined from various conditions. The unappro-priated supply available for storage may or may not-all be required,although in this locality the entire flow of the streams can be profitablyutilized when stored so that it can be used at the proper times. Thecapacity of a reservoir probably never varies directly with the heightof the dam, since the surface increases in area as its level is cost may not vary directly with the capacity of the reservoir,and must be considered relative to the value of the stored water, whichchanges from time to time, although it seldom decreases.
