	There are 8 major dams and reservoirs, and 7 diversion dams, on the Colorado River mainstem, and hundreds of dams and reservoirs the tributaries. Excluding the reservoirs in the Gila River Basin (as explained below), total storage capacity across the basin is about 62 million acre-feet (maf). About 80% of this system storage capacity is in Lake Mead (26.1 maf) and Lake Powell (23.3 maf), with the remainder spread across dozens of major reservoirs (>0.1 maf) and hundreds of smaller ones, primarily in the Upper Basin. Over 90% of the system storage capacity is held by dams owned and operated by Reclamation, or owned by Reclamation and operated by a cooperating agency. Table 1 lists the 10 largest reservoirs within the Colorado River Basin by water-supply storage (per the Reclamation teacup diagrams for the [https://www.usbr.gov/uc/water/basin/index.html Upper] and [https://www.usbr.gov/lc/region/g4000/TeacupDiagram.html Lower] basins).

	In addition to thousands of individually operated ditches and canals that divert water from the mainstem and tributaries, there are a number of major water delivery projects or systems encompassing at some or all of the following: large canals (carrying 100-4000 cubic feet per second), pump stations, aqueducts, pipelines, tunnels, and reservoirs. Several of these major projects involve transbasin diversions, conveying water to uses outside of the Colorado River Basin; all water diverted to another basin counts as consumptive use (CU). Other projects distribute water within the basin, such that ~~any~~ return flows (diversions minus consumptive use) ~~could potentially be reused by others in~~ the ~~basin~~.

Other projects distribute water within the basin, such that return flows (diversions minus consumptive use) have the potential for reuse.

	Tables 2 and 3 list selected major projects in the Upper Basin and Lower Basin, respectively. Each project supplies an average of at least 100,000 acre-feet of consumptive use per year.

	There are 8 major dams and reservoirs, and 7 diversion dams, on the Colorado River mainstem, and hundreds of dams and reservoirs the tributaries. Excluding the reservoirs in the Gila River Basin (as explained below), total storage capacity across the basin is about 62 million acre-feet (maf). About 80% of this system storage capacity is in Lake Mead (26.1 maf) and Lake Powell (23.3 maf), with the remainder spread across dozens of major reservoirs (>0.1 maf) and hundreds of smaller ones, primarily in the Upper Basin. Over 90% of the system storage capacity is held by dams owned and operated by Reclamation, or owned by Reclamation and operated by a cooperating agency.
