• • <br />These data were also used to provide estimates of the average daily discharge for each <br />month as well as the minimum and maximum daily flow during each month (Tables 4 -6). <br />Finally, these data allowed us to estimate the percentage of days a given flow is <br />exceeded. These data indicate that, regardless of the approach taken to estimate flows in <br />Severy Creek, for each month of the year 50 percent of observed daily discharges were <br />greater than the recommended discharge for that day (Tables 4 -6). <br />N <br />V <br />r� <br />L <br />U <br />to <br />Date <br />— Estimated from N.

The three different estimates of average daily <br />discharge through Severy Creek are displayed as is the recommend discharge based on the R2CROSS <br />analysis. The summer season is from April 1 to August 15 and corresponds roughly with the period <br />beginning with the steep rising limb of the hydrograph and its ending with the return to pre- summer flows. <br />Precipitation Data <br />TU has identified local precipitation data from Colorado Springs. These data are included <br />in Appendix C <br />Existing Water Right Information <br />There is one known diversion on Severy Creek. The U.S. Forest Service holds the right to <br />divert 0.005 cfs through the Barr Camp Springs & P /L. This water is used by Barr Camp, <br />a special -use permittee. The camp is a stopping point for many climbers, some of whom <br />stay the night and shower. The Forest Service describes the use as minimal. Both the <br />Structure Summary Report and Water Rights Report are attached (Appendix D). Given <br />that these rights will be senior to the instream flow right and that the amount of water <br />
