0 <br />Existing Water Right Information <br />Staff has analyzed the water rights tabulation and consulted with the Division Engineer Office <br />(DEO) to identify any potential water availability problems. There is one decreed surface <br />diversion located within the proposed instream flow water right, the Taylor Ditch, located near <br />the confluence with the Arkansas River. Additional surface diversions located on tributaries to <br />Badger Creek include the Paul Walton Ditch, the Craig Ditch and Allen Ditch Nos. 1 and 2. <br />Based on this analysis, staff has determined that water is available for appropriation on Badger <br />Creek between the spring complex located in the SW /4 NE /4, Section 24, T51N R10E and the <br />confluence with the Arkansas River, to preserve the natural environment to a reasonable degree <br />without limiting or foreclosing the exercise of valid existing water rights. <br />CWCB Staff's Instream Flow Recommendation <br />Staff recommends the Board form its intent to appropriate on the following stream reach: <br />Segment Springs near Antelope Gulch to Confluence with Arkansas <br />River <br />Upper Terminus: Springs near Antelope Gulch <br />(Latitude 38° 39' 13.9 "N) (Longitude 105° 48' 52.5 "W) <br />UTM = 4278683.9N 429119.3E <br />SW NE S24 T5 1N R10E NM PM <br />1041' West of East Section Line; 1650' South of North Section Line <br />Lower Terminus: Confluence with Arkansas River <br />(Latitude 38° 27' 54.6 "N) (Longitude 105° 51' 40.9 "W) <br />UTM = 4257780.6N 424852.1E <br />SE SE S28 T49N R10E NM PM <br />39' West of East Section Line; 756' North of South Section Line <br />Watershed: Arkansas Headwaters (HUC#: 1102000 1) <br />Counties: Fremont <br />Length: 16.0 miles <br />USGS Quad(s): Gribbles Park, Jack Hall Mountain, Howard <br />Flow Recommendation (Enlargement): 2.5 cfs (April 1 to August 31) <br />2.0 cfs (September 1 to October 31) <br />
