<br />CC1383 <br /> <br />SELECTED HYDROLOGIC DATA, ARKANSAS RIVER BASIN, <br /> <br />PUBELO AND SOUTHEASTERN FREMONT COUNTIES, <br />COLORADO, 1975-80 <br /> <br />By Doug Cain and Patrick Edelmann <br /> <br />ABSTRACT <br /> <br />Selected hydrologic data collected in 1975-80 as part of water-quality <br />investigations by the U.S. Geological Survey in Pueblo and southeastern Fremont <br />Counties are presented in this report. The data, in tabular form, consist of <br />streamflow-discharge measurements for 33 sites, channel-geometry measurements for <br />97 sites, traveltime data for 12 sites, and field and laboratory water-quality <br />analyses for 194 sites. Federal, State, and local officials may find these data <br />useful in making decisions relating to the management of water resources of the <br />area. <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />This report makes available selected hydrologic data collected from <br />October 1975 through June 1980 as part of water-quality investigations in Pueblo <br />and southeastern Fremont Counties. This report was prepared by the <br />U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Pueblo Area Council of <br />Governments. Federal, State, and local officials may find these data useful in <br />making decisions relating to the management of water resources of the area. <br /> <br />Appreciation is extended to the many landowners who allowed access to <br />sampling sites on the Arkansas River and its tributaries, and to Bob Jesse and Jim <br />Kasic of the Pueblo Division Engineer's Office of the Colorado Department of <br />Natural Resources, Division of Water Resources, for helping coordinate many of the <br />data-collection activities. <br /> <br />DESCRIPTION OF HYDROLOGIC DATA <br /> <br />Data were collected at 298 surface-water sites. The data, which consist of <br />streamflow-discharge, channel-geometry, and traveltime measurements, and field and <br />laboratory water-quality analyses, are presented in tables 3 through 20 in the <br />Hydrologic Data section at the back of this report. The data i~ each table are <br />arranged in downstream order. Each data-collection site is keyed to a site number <br />shown on plate 1. Water-quality analyses may be compared to the water-quality <br />guidelines shown in table 1 to indicate relative suitability for various uses. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />. <br />. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />',..
