FRENCH CREEK DRAINAGE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
French Creek flows out of the east slope of the Bighorn Mountains between the tributaries of Rock and Clear creeks before becoming a tributary of Clear Creek. Clear Creek eventually joins the Powder River, which runs north to cross the Montana state line north of Spotted Horse, Wyoming. French Creek is fed in part by the Four Lakes & French Creek Ditch, which routes water from the North Fork of Clear Creek into upper French Creek. In turn, the Penrose Ditch diverts a supplementary supply from French Creek into Rock Creek to be used there.
CHARACTERISTICS
Compared to most of the other tributaries of Clear Creek and other east-slope drainages, French Creek has relatively small diversions. Because it goes through such steep descents in its passage, even the broken geology it crosses doesn't cause it to have the magnitude of losses found in streams meandering in the Powder River Basin. Water commissioners estimate French Creek's instream losses to be approximately 10 percent at the maximum.
French Creek does not play a significant part in returning flow to Clear Creek. Water commissioners and irrigators are careful to divert the entirety of the stream upstream of its confluence with Clear Creek.
USAGE
French Creek's diversions are entirely devoted to agricultural irrigation.
Regulation
Water commissioners estimate that regulation is imposed on French Creek drainage diversions with the following timing:
Wet Year | Average Year | Dry Year |
---|---|---|
None or last of August | 2nd week of July | 2nd week of June |
Agriculture
Growers in the French Creek drainage tend to devote approximately 60 percent of their lands to alfalfa and 40 percent to grass hay. To deliver water from their diversions, they have the following irrigation practices:
Percentage of land served by irrigation practices
Flood | Gated Pipe | Sprinklers |
---|---|---|
45 | 40 | 15 |
The typical irrigation season runs from April 15-May 1 (depending on whether the spring runoff is delayed by colder weather) to mid/early October (depending on when the first snows fall and the ground freezes). Approximately 10 percent of the irrigators using French Creek water (the biggest users) practice post-season irrigation, though they usually do not use their entire right to do so.
Shrinkage
Irrigators on Johnson Creek who receive water from the Four Lakes ditch via French Creek and Penrose Ditch are charged "shrinkage" (instream loss) on the reservoir water they use based on the following:
Type of water year | Shrinkage (% of flow or volume) |
---|---|
Wet | 10 |
Average | 30 |
Dry | 50 |
Double Appropriation
Irrigation water rights with priority dates of March 1, 1945 or earlier are entitled to an additional 1cfs per 70 acres under Wyoming's surplus water statutes. Whenever the supply in a stream exceeds the amount required to satisfy all existing appropriations established prior to March 1, 1985, the stream is said to be in an excess flow condition and water right holders with priorities between March 2, 1945 and March 1, 1985 may use an additional 1 cfs for each 70 acres irrigated.
In French Creek, this practice is limited primarily by the condition of ditches that follow the diversions from the creek. Many of the ditches are not capable of carrying all of the water an irrigator could use.
% of appropriation | % of ditches in drainage capable of flow |
---|---|
200 | 20 |
150 | 60 |
100-150 | 90 |
0-100 | 90 |

WATER RIGHTS
Two water rights summary tables are provided for each diversion serving irrigation referenced here. The first, included in the body of the diversion synopsis, refers to the rights on record with the State Engineer's Office and is derived from that office's Tabulation of Adjudicated Surface Water Rights of the State of Wyoming, Water Division Number Two (Oct. 1999).
Because this rights summary is pulled directly from the SEO Tab, the rights cited follow the SEO's priority order:
Hierarchy | Format of right | Example |
---|---|---|
1 | Day, Month, Year | 05-15-1884 |
2 | Month and Year | 05-00-1884 |
3 | Specified Season and Year | Spring 1884 |
4 | Year Only | 1884 |
5 | Before Year | Before 1884 |
Board orders or court orders may also establish a specific priority.
Irrigated Lands Water Rights Database
The second table, which follows the diversion synopsis, is taken from the irrigated lands water rights database developed for the basin plan. It can be used as a reference with the following caveats: It only lists water rights associated with the irrigated lands polygons mapped by HKM. The table does not include nonirrigation rights devoted to reservoir supply, municipal, fish propagation, etc. The rights on this table are associated only with those irrigated lands identified through the course of this study, both actively irrigated and currently idle.

KEY DIVERSIONS
Diversion: | PENROSE DITCH DIVERSION and PENROSE-JOHNSON DITCH DIVERSION AKA: Penrose (on Johnson Creek) |
Penrose Ditch at French Creek headgatee | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date | 18 Oct. 2000 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Note: | Two headgates divert for this ditch. The first diverts from French Creek to bring water to Johnson Creek, where the majority of the water is used. The second diverts water out of Johnson Creek. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Diversion Description: | The French Creek headgate consists of a single, 3.4 x 1.8-foot round steel gate in steel slider raised/lowered by a Waterman-type screw mounted in a concrete headwall, all in good condition. | Penrose Ditch at Johnson Creek headgate | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Johnson Creek headgate consists of a single, 3.5-foot round steel gate in steel slider raised/lowered by a Waterman-type screw mounted in a concrete wall, all in good condition. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Diversion Location: | The Penrose Ditch diversion on French Creek is located on the main stem of French Creek and diverts Four Lakes Ditch water to Johnson Creek (a tributary of Rock Creek), where it is diverted by the second headgate. | Penrose Ditch at French Creek flume | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Penrose Ditch at Johnson Creek flume | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Conveyance Description: | Open channel canal, approximately 4.7 mi. long. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Direct Flow Water Rights: | Because the Penrose is a means of conveyance for North Fork of Clear Creek water to get to irrigators on Johnson Creek for original and supplemental supplies, the direct-flow rights in Penrose are officially 0 cfs. But because Johnson Creek's direct flow is notoriously poor, this supplemental supply is put to use for most of the season. As a result, the flow for Penrose can reasonably be calculated using the Wyoming State Engineer's Office baseline allocation: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1 cfs/70 acres * 633.93 acres = 9.06 cfs | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Note that this figure is subject to the shrinkage factors cited in the Storage section of the French Creek summary above. As a result, an average-year flow would be reduced by 30 percent to 6.34 cfs. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The direct-flow rights summary follows: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
