• Title: Minimum Flow Recommendation For Passage Of Colorado Squawfish And Razorback Sucker In The 2.3-Mile Reach Of The Lower Gunnison River
• USFW Year: 1997.
• USFW - Doc Type: Redlands Diversion Dam To The Colorado River Confluence.

Table D.3. Summary data for Colorado squawfish implanted with radiotransmitters
and later contacted in the lower 2.3-mile reach of the Gunnison
River between the Redlands Diversion Dam and Colorado River
confluence. Note.: RM=river mile: cfs=cubic feet per second. Prior
to the flood years of 1983 and 1984, the confluence of the Gunnison
and Colorado rivers was 0.0. During these flood years, the Colorado
River claimed 0.7 mile of a former side channel of the Gunnison
River. Therefore, after 1984, the new confluence designation was
0.7 rather than 0.0.
