A quick check using the USGS water supply papers for August and September 1976 is shown below:
August 1976 September 1976
Flow at Almont26,320 af21,520 af
Change in Storage at Taylor Park-10,090 af-9,710 af
Base Flow at Almont16,230 af11,810 af
The base flows estimated at Almont using the USGS water supply papers agree with those calculated
by STATEMOD.
