About this structure

Galloway Ditch is the structure Colorado DWR identifies as WDID 6100502. The first two digits, 61, are Water District 61 (Paradox Creek), in Division 4, the Gunnison basin. Its call is on West Paradox Creek.

BasinMind first saw it on the division's active call list on October 3, 2026 and most recently on October 4, 2026.

What its call means

While its call is on, rights on the affected stretch that are junior to its priority (May 31, 1884, administration number 12570.00000) 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?.
