<br />, <br /> <br />.- <br /> <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 reported high stream flows (spikes) on the lower reaches of the South <br />Platte and Arkansas Rivers due to rainfall runoff over the Memorial Day Weekend. The DWR's "Water <br />Talk" phone number is (303) 831-7135. The DWR also has streamflow information on the Worldwide Web <br />at http://www.yampa.comlindex2.html. The Colorado District of the USGS also provides streamflow <br />information on the Worldwide Web. Their Home Page is located at http://webserver.cr.usgs.gov:/ <br />home.html. A summary of recent peak streamflows for selected streams is shown in the table 3 below: <br /> <br />Table 3 <br />PEAK FLOW SUMMARY THROUGH 5/27/96 FOR SELECTED STREAMS <br /> <br />StrilaiDi Name <br />Tenmile Creek <br />Blue River <br />Yam aRiver <br />Clear Creek <br />Ea Ie River <br /> <br /> <br />4) STREAMS UNDER WATCH <br />Within the major drainage basins listed in table 1 above, there are 5 stream basins with sufficient snowmelt <br />flood risk that they are being specifically monitored. Those streams are listed in Table 4, along with <br />potentially affected communities. <br /> <br />Table 4 <br />STREAMS THAT ARE UNDER WATCH FOR SNOWMELT FLOOD RISK <br /> <br />"",0'0 """^ <br />~ijBlmvIi:lt <br />~~it~t:. m <br />SOUTH PLATTE <br />RIVER BASIN <br /> <br /> <br />o c""" ~ , ; ; , ,; " '" ' <br />AJ<ij<:J<;cm8Di~9~'J,llis <br /> <br />Clear Creek and Chicago <br />Creek <br /> <br />Silver Plume, Georgetown, Idaho Springs, Clear <br />Creek County <br /> <br />COLORADO <br />RIVER BASIN <br />(Northern portion <br />of basin) <br /> <br />Yampa River <br /> <br />Yampa, Oak Creek, Steamboat Springs, Routt <br />County <br /> <br />Blue River <br /> <br />Blue River, Breckenridge, Frisco, Silverthorne, <br />Montezuma, Summit County <br /> <br />Eagle River <br /> <br />Eagle, Gypsum, Eagle County <br /> <br />Tenmile Creek <br /> <br />Frisco and Summit County <br /> <br />2 <br />
