(1) Guiraud 3TDitch Right (G3T) with a priority date of July 1, 1867 and is historically located on the Middle Fork of the South Platte River near Hartsel. This is one of the original rights purchased by various entities for augmentation purposes after the 1972 statute was passed. It has a yield of 21.825 acre-feet per cubic-feet- per-second of flow or 1.5 acre-feet per irrigated acre. See G3T yield for available amount.

It was historically used to irrigate hay near Hwy 285 on Deer Creek.
