<br /> <br />used only in the lower basin and must be used largely before <br /> <br />it gets to the river. The inclusion of the Paria in the upper <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />basin is the logical thing and can be done illlder either method <br /> <br />suggested by Mr. Carpenter, or by means of a separate gauging <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />station. <br /> <br />MR, CARPENTER: Hr. Davis, where is the Grand Canyon station <br /> <br />mentioned by Commissioner Norviel, above or below the Little <br /> <br />Colorado? <br /> <br />MR. A. P. DAVIS: Below. <br /> <br />MR. CARPEl-ITER: So the station at that point wuldcover <br /> <br />not only the waters from the upper natural basin, but also the <br /> <br />ini"low from a stream of the lower basin? <br /> <br />MR. A. P. DAVIS: And the most important stream of the lower <br /> <br />basin' except the Gila. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />HR. EHERSON: Hr. Davis, which method, in your opinion, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />",ould be more desirable, from your present knowledge?' One <br /> <br />gauging Iiltation below the mouth of the Paria, or the station <br /> <br />above the mouth of the Paria upon the Colorado and the addition- <br /> <br />al station on the Paria? <br /> <br />MR. A. P. DAVIS; The station below the mouth of theParia, <br /> <br />if feasible, would be preferable to one above because you would <br /> <br />get a more accurate measurement of the ",hole thing at less ex- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />pense. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. E~~RSON; Can you state definitely at this time whether <br /> <br />a station would be practical below the mouth of the paria? <br /> <br />MR. A. P. DAVIS, I have no doubt of it.
