It is staffs opinion that the seven years of stream-flow data analyzed is <br />representative of average to above average water-years, Figure 4 below shows the East Middle <br />Fork Parachute Creek stream flow for the 1976-1983 time period. <br /> <br />Figure 4: <br /> <br />EAST MIDDLE FORK PARACHUTE CR NR RIO I3LANCO, CO. <br /> <br /> 573 <br /> 5]6 <br /> .t5R <br /> '" <br /> 3H <br /> !K7 <br />~ !!Q <br />, <br /> ,', <br /> '- <br /> ]]5 <br /> 57 <br /> . ~ <br /> , ~ <br /> . . <br /> <br />x <br />, <br />. <br /> <br />,I <br />" <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />J <br /> <br />. <br />~ <br />. - <br />-- <br /> <br />. <br />-.::~ <br /> <br />l <br />N _. <br />~ ~ ~. <br />~_._~~_.. .....-2._ <br /> <br />" <br />, <br />~- <br /> <br />Daily <br />
