<br />3) STREAMFLOW MEASUREMENTS
<br />Streamflow measurements are being monitored by the State of Colorado's Division of Water Resources
<br />(DWR) and the USGS. The DWR's "Water Talk" phone number is (303) 831-7135. The DWR also has
<br />streamflow information on the Worldwide Web at http://www.yampa.comlresources/water/index.html. The
<br />Colorado District of the USGS also provides streamflow information on the Worldwide Web. Their Home
<br />Page is located at http://webserver.cr.usgs.gov:/home.html.
