<br />in terms of assigning frequencies. Therefore, these storms will be noted <br />but will not be included in this hydrology analysis. The Upper Republican <br />River Basin Regional Frequency Study was adopted for use in the Yuma <br />County Flood Plain Information Report and the Wray, Colorado, Flood Plain <br />Information Report. <br /> <br />The discharges for the city of Wray are the same as those for the <br />Colorado-Nebraska State line. This determination was based on the general <br />tendency of drainage running off the lower section of the basin (downstream <br />of Wray) to route itself on downstream before the peak from upstream drain- <br />age (upstream of Wray) has reached the lower basin. This is reasonable <br />due to the narrow elongated shape of the drainage basin downstream of Wray. <br />Several recorded annual peaks support this statement. Rainfall distribu- <br />tion records would be important in this comparison and should be considered, <br />but since there is only one rainfall station in the immediate area, this <br />record will not be analyzed. Annual peaks for the Wray gage and the <br />Colorado-Nebraska State line gage are shown in Table 3. <br /> <br />1YL^'-1//f}1~ u;;r:- <br /> <br />4 <br />
