<br />Existing Water Right Information <br /> <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 are no decreed surface <br />diversions within this reach of stream. Based on this analysis staff has determined that water is <br />available for appropriation on Little Dolores River, between the confluence with Bieser Creek <br />and the Upper Saxbury Ditch, to preserve the natural environment to a reasonable degree without <br />limiting or foreclosing the exercise of valid existing water rights. <br /> <br />CWCB Staff's Instream Flow Recommendation <br />Staff recommends the Board fonn its intent to appropriate on the following stream reach: <br /> <br />Seament: confluence Bieser Creek to Upper Saxbury Ditch <br />Upper Terminus: confluence Bieser Creek <br />(Latitude 380 59' 13"N) (Longitude 1080 54' 48"W) <br />UTM ~ 43 17 190N 12 6 80 744 E <br />SW NW S28 Tl2S RI03W 6PM <br />1230' East of West Section Line 2000' South of North Section Line <br /> <br />Lower Terminus: Upper Saxbury Ditch <br />(Latitude 390 00' 28"N) (Longitude 1080 56' 12"W) <br />UTM ~ 43 19 472N 12 678 657E <br />SE SE SI8 Tl2S RI03W 6PM <br />360' West of East Section Line 450' North of South Section Line <br /> <br />Watershed: Westwater Canyon (HUC#: 14030001) <br />Counties: Mesa County <br />Length: 2.5 miles <br />USGS Quad(s): Bieser Creek, Sieber Canyon <br />Flow Recommendation: 2.4 cfs (April I e' - July 31 e') <br />1.6 cfs (August Ie' - October 31 e') <br />1.0 cfs (November Ie' - March 31 e') <br /> <br />- 5 - <br />
