, <br /> DWR and CWCB Flood Hardening of Existing Stream Gages Page 4 <br /> Ill <br /> This technology provides for more rapid, safer, and often more accurate measurement of stream flow. <br /> DWR is employing this technology to help verify and extend the middle and upper ranges of the stage- <br /> discharge relationship at key gages. <br /> FY08 Accomplishments <br /> The CWCB provided $350,000 in FY2007-08 for satellite telemetry equipment upgrade and replacement, <br /> flood hardening of stream gages, and stream gage refurbishment. <br /> High Data Rate DCP Upgrade Program, Of the funds allocated, $245,000 were expended on the <br /> procurement and installation of new generation, high data rate, satellite-linked monitoring equipment. The <br /> high data rate upgrade program began in 2001. To date, 357 satellite monitoring gages throughout <br /> Colorado, about 80% of the current total system, have been upgraded from 100 baud to 300 baud <br /> transmission speed. Upgrades also include new generation data collection platforms with on-board data <br /> logging, new stage measurement equipment, ancillary telemetry support equipment, and gage station <br /> grounding equipment. <br /> Streamgage Refurbishment. Of the FY07-08 funds, $55,000 along with carryover funds from the previous <br /> fiscal year were used on refurbishment of existing stream gages throughout the State. Refurbishment <br /> projects were completed at the following stream gages in FY 2007-08. Several of these projects were <br /> initiated in FY08, but not completed, and will carry over into FY09 for completion (these are marked with an <br /> asterisk). $866.25 <br /> North Channel Conejos R.near LaSauses <br /> RIOSFKCO-steel for A-frame $450.29 <br /> Roubideau Creek at the Mouth near Delta $14,595.00 • <br /> Hoosier Pass Tunnel $291.39 <br /> PURTRICO-install wire weight gage $473.02 <br /> TRIMTNCO backhoe work in channel $455.00 <br /> ILLRANCO,MICMERCO shelters,stilling wells $1,933.82 <br /> Willow Creek bl Steamboat Lake $3,365.07 <br /> RULTOOCO/MUDTOOCO crest gage,supplies $567.95 <br /> Div 7 La Plata gages-shelters and supplies $492.56 <br /> Boulder Creek near Orodell-AC power $2,254.86 <br /> Navajo River at Banded Peak Ranch $149.32 <br /> N.Fk.Cache la Poudre bel Seaman-bank stabilization $77.52 <br /> LAPBRECO ramp flume stabilization $7,480.00 <br /> •LAPCHECO ramp flume stabilization $7,120.00 <br /> Razor Creek below Vouga Res $88.89 <br /> Straight Creek Tunnel--SDR,shelter,confined space eqpmt $4,245.41 <br /> Long Hollow at the Mouth nr Red Mesa $934.68 <br /> Red Mesa Ward Reservoir $2,891.58 <br /> Rio Blanco River at Mouth $2,952.18 <br /> Redlands Canal nr Grand Junction $451.43 <br /> Div 5 valve handle extensions-BLUNINCO,ROABMCCO $896.90 <br /> Saguache Cr near Saguache $79.45 <br /> Buckeye Reservoir and Outflow gage $6,902.34 <br /> •S.Platte River at Julesburg Channel 4 $1,000.00 <br /> Arkansas River at La Junta $500.00 <br /> Arkansas River above Pueblo $875.00 <br /> West Divide Creek near Raven $621.37 <br /> South Platte at Waterton $1,000.00 <br /> •La Plata at Hesperus $2,580.00 <br /> Big Thompson at Canyon Mouth $253.31 <br /> Fountain Creek at Mouth $1,025.00 <br /> •Purgatoire River at 9-mile Dam $500.00 <br /> Cotton Cr.nr Mineral Hot Springs $430.00 <br /> Wild Cherry Creek nr Crestone $108.25 <br /> N Crestone Creek nr Crestone $54.28 <br /> 1 • <br /> I <br />
