Lobach Ditch
A structure that has placed an administrative call in Division 2: its priority, its water source and whether it is calling now.
About this structure
Lobach Ditch is the structure Colorado DWR identifies as WDID 1200616. The first two digits, 12, are Water District 12 (Arkansas: Salida to Portland), in Division 2, the Arkansas basin. Its call is on Hardscrabble Creek.
BasinMind first saw it on the division's active call list on October 3, 2026 and most recently on October 4, 2026.
DWR lists it as a futile call: junior rights may keep diverting because curtailing them would not get water to the senior right in time.
What its call means
While its call is on, rights on the affected stretch that are junior to its priority (April 15, 1871, administration number 7775.00000) may be ordered to reduce or stop diverting until it is satisfied; senior rights keep diverting.
A WDID names a structure, not a water right: one ditch can hold several rights with different priorities, and the call is placed with one of them. More in What is a water call?, Is my ditch in priority? and What is a WDID?.
