<br />6. water Availability and Sustainability -this information is needed to assess the viability and
<br />effectiveness of the water project or activity, Please provide a description of each water supply
<br />source to be utilized for, or the water body to be affected by, the water activity. For water supply
<br />sources being utilized, describe its location, yield, extent of development, and water right status.
<br />For water bodies being affected, describe its location, extent of development, and the expected
<br />effect of the water activity on the water body, in either case, the analysis should take into
<br />consideration a reasonable range of hydrologic variation.
<br />This project is watershed wide, all tributaries of the North Platte will be surveyed. The survey will be
<br />focus an lower elevation wetlands, with private lands a priority.
<br />7. Please provide a brief narrative of any related or relevant previous studies.
<br />An Internet and scientific articles search revealed a lack of published information and publications.
<br />Most articles were focused on other states within the watershed, only the following articles were
<br />available for the headwaters of the North Platte. One of the major tasks for this project is to compile all
<br />information, published and unpublished.
