Notes
  • Significance: In the amount of lands irrigated and the total value of production of lands irrigated ($88,918 in 1937), the U.S. Lake Fork Canal is the largest and most productive of all canals constructed by the Uintah Irrigation Project. Final proof on the U.S. Lake Fork was 11,425 acres, of which 8,876 acres were patented to the Indians. Carry capacity was allowed in certain laterals to the Farmers' Irrigation Company and the Dry Gulch Irrigation Company. By 1938, however, the U.S. Lake Fork Canal was irrigating 9,724 acres of white-owned or leased land, principally around the communities of Altonah and Altamont.
