Flow recommendations have been developed for native fish communities
in the San Juan River in New Mexico, Colorado and Utah. The flow
recommendations are a major milestone of the SJRRIP. Mimicry of the natural
hydrograph is the foundation of the flow recommendations. Any future Section 7
consultation in connection with water development in the San Juan River Basin will
need to take the flow recommendations into consideration.
