<br />. <br /> <br />Division 4 / Gunnison River Basin, 12 stations <br />Division 5 / Colorado River Basin, 22 stations <br />Division 6 / Green River Basin, 8 stations <br />Division 7 / Dolores and San Juan River Basins, 15 stations <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />A detailed list of these stations is included in Table 1. In the network <br />development, the primary considerations are administrative importance, utility <br />in project management, and the interrelationship of each station to other · <br />stat ions in a subnetwork. The goal was to incorporate those stat ions that <br />satisfied as many of these requirements as possible in order to obtain maximum <br />benefits from real-time data collection. The most important element in net- · <br />work development is in establishing station interrelationships. Rather than <br />se 1 ecting stat ions, it is more important to incorporate integrated subnet- <br />works. Data collected from one station are not as useful as information · <br />extracted from a subnetwork of stations. This is critical for compact admini- <br />strat ion, project management, developing water resources account ing systems, <br />and in developing water resources management programs. Changes in the network · <br />can be made at any time and have been made in the last 12 months as a result <br />of an evaluation of the utility of real-time data for a given station or due <br />to a change in specific water rights administration. The remote data collec- · <br />tion hardware is easily removed and installed at a substitute gaging station. <br /> <br />Considerable cooperation was necessary in developing this network. .. <br />Ninety-eight (98) of the 151 gaging stations installed with remote data <br />collection hardware by the State of Colorado are owned and operated by <br />non-state entities. Access and installation agreements were negotiated with · <br />the fo 11 owi ng: <br /> <br />-12- <br /> <br />. <br />
