<br />Water-quality data are not collected routinely from wells in the state- <br />wide networks. However, a variety of water-quality data were collected at <br />14 wells during 1986 for interpretive hydrologic investigations. These data <br />are available from the files of the U.S. Geological Survey. <br /> <br />Meteorological Data <br /> <br />Precipitation quantity and (or) air temperature are collected and <br />published at 24 monitoring stations in Colorado. One station, located in Bent <br />County, is part of the nat i onwi de NTN (Nat i ona 1 Trends Network) program to <br />monitor long-term precipitation-quality chanqes. Precipitation quantity and <br />(or) air temperature is measured and satellite-telemetered to the U.S. <br />Geological Survey DRGS from 33 stations. Information from the precipitation <br />stations is available to users on request. <br /> <br />INTERPRETIVE HYDROLOGIC INVESTIGATIONS <br /> <br />Forty interpretive hydro 1 ogi c invest i gat ions are bei ng conducted duri ng <br />fiscal year 1987 in cooperation with 70 Federal, State, and local agencies. <br />Hydro 1 ogi c invest i gat ions are bei ng conducted that will provi de i nformat ion <br />needed to answer hydrologic questions specific to the State's four major river <br />basins (Missouri, Arkansas, Rio Grande, and Colorado), as well as questions <br />addressing statewide, multistate, and nationwide hydrologic problems.
