<br />2. Although the absolute area of each habitat declined with reduced flows, riflle, run, pool, and <br /> <br /> <br />eddy habitat composition remained relatively constant for discharges above 150 cfs; below 150 <br /> <br /> <br />cfs, riflle area increased as a percentage of total area and eddy area decreased. <br /> <br />3. Weighted useable area for adult Colorado pikeminnow increased nearly linearly from 1 to 600 <br />cfs. <br /> <br />4. Riflle surface area also increased linearly as a function offlow for all flows examined. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDA nONS <br /> <br />1. Until additional information becomes available, we recommend continuation ofthe current flow <br /> <br /> <br />patterns to protect the adult Colorado pikeminnow population in the White River. <br /> <br /> <br />2. Conduct a study that includes seasonal flow needs of Colorado pikeminnow including base <br /> <br /> <br />flow needs, thus permitting determination of flow regimes that will maximize preferred habitats. <br /> <br />20 <br />
