The Fairplay Beach reservoir finally has permanent augmentation water and water losses from evaporation will be covered in the future.
The closing on 10.05 acre feet of augmentation water from Lone Rock H2O took place June 19.
Purchasing the water was a collaborative effort between the Park County, Fairplay, the Headwater Authority of South Platte and the two water conservancy districts in the county.
The districts had an option to purchase the 10 acre feet from Lone Rock.
HASP will own and manage the augmentation water for the Beach.
