<br />,) <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />t. <br />! <br /> <br />Floods of June 1965 <br /> <br />in <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />Arkansas River Basin - Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexico <br /> <br />Torrential rains June 15 to 18, caused floods in the Arkansas River <br /> <br />basin in eastern Colorado, western Kansas, and northern New Mexico. <br /> <br />The attached tabulation contains provisional results of indirect measure- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ments of peak discharge and a few peak discharges determined from stage- <br /> <br />discharge relations defined by current-meter measurements. All of these <br /> <br />are subject to revision after additional studies are made, particularly on <br /> <br />streams where measllrements were obtained at more than one location. <br /> <br />All streams and sites that were investigated are shown in the tabulation, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />whether or not computations were complete. Field surveys are comple- <br /> <br />ted, and values of peak discharges will be available for all stations list- <br /> <br />ed. In addition to the data tabulated, much other information, such as <br /> <br />stream cross sections and water-surface profiles, is available for inspec- <br /> <br />tion at the district offices, Surface Water Branch of the Geological Sur- <br /> <br />vey at 1455 Ammons Street, Denver, Colo., F'ederal Building, Santa Fe, <br /> <br />.... <br />.... <br /> <br />N.
