These stations must be <br />located on streams draining basins that have undergone no significant man- <br />made changes during the period of record and that are expected to remain in <br />a comparable condition in the future. These stations should be well dis- <br />tributed areally and should be located in basins of differing physical <br />characteristics. <br /> <br />Very few existing gaging stations in Kansas are on streams draining <br />areas that have not changed during the period of record and that are not <br />likely to change in the future. In addition to the reservoirs completed in <br />recent years on large streams, hundreds of small reservoirs and thousands <br />of farm ponds are already in existence or planned for future construction. <br />Of the few stations that do appear suitable for long-term gaging to docu- <br />ment natural changes, several probably wil I undergo unforeseen manmade <br />changes that wi 11 preclude future use of thei r records for this purpose. <br />A total of 13 stations that appear to be suitable at the present time have <br />been selected from the existing network for indefinite operation to extend <br />the long-term-data base. These are identified in table 3 and on figure 10. <br /> <br />34 <br />
