approximate area of seasonally drying marsh in dry years
under present stage regulation schedule (A) and projected
area of this type of marsh under new regulation schedule,
if there were a 2-ft rise in fluctuation levels (B). The
approximate location of the Hoover Dike is designated with
the "C (from a graph from Meyer, 1971).
