<br />. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />000194 <br /> <br />2IC West Fork West Beaver Creek <br />QP at sec 14 - 14S - 69W; 100 feet above south section line <br />Amount: A CWCB instream flow recommendation needs to be made and would likely be <br />deemed acceptable. In addition, USFS requests a high flow between May I and July 15 <br />of at least 70% of bankfull and upto 120 % of bankfull to maintain habitat for Greenback <br />Cutthroat Trout if present Group wanted more definition (limits) on the high flow <br />request and assurance that there would be some upstream exchange potential particularly <br />during runoff. This watershed at the QP is very small (about 4 sq,mL), and USFS has <br />indicated the QP may not be worth keeping if Greenbacks are not present <br /> <br />590 West Tennessee Creek <br />QP at sec 20 - 8S - 80W; 100 yards downstream of confluence with North Fork <br />Amount: 4 cfs year round which is same as CWCB instream flow, <br /> <br />59E Longs Gulch <br />QP at sec 20 - 8S - 80W; 100 feet upstream of south section line (forest boundary) <br />Amount: 2 cfs year round which is same as CWCB instream flow, <br /> <br />6IA Lake Fork <br />QP at sec 9 - 9S - 81 W; 100 yards below Glacier Creek confluence <br />Amount: A CWCB instream flow of 7 cfs year round is acceptable at the QP, In <br />addition, USFS requests a high flow between May I and July 15 of at least 70% of <br />bankfull and upto 120 % of bankfull to maintain habitat for Greenback Cutthroat Trout <br />which are present in the stream according to the CDOW. Group wanted more definition <br />(limits) on the high flow request and assurance that there would be some upstream <br />exchange potential particularly during runoff. <br /> <br />6IF Halfmoon Creek <br />QP at sec 13 - lOS - 81 W; 100 feet upstream of east section line (forest boundary) <br />Amount: A CWCB instream flow of 7 cfs year round is acceptable at the QP, In <br />addition, USFS requests a high flow between May I and July 15 of at least 70% of <br />bankfull and upto 120 % of bankfull to maintain stream habitat they have developed, <br />Group wanted more definition (limits) on the high flow request and assurance that there <br />would be some limited upstream exchange potential particularly during runoff. USFS <br />also asked that appropriating all remaining flows be considered as this watershed is one <br />of only 53 hydrologic benchmark watersheds nationwide, Benchmark watersheds are <br />monitored continuously to provide consistent data on hydrology, water quality and <br />related factors in representative undeveloped areas for comparison and contrast to <br />conditions in basins affected by the activities of man, <br /> <br />63A Big Union Creek (Weston Pass) <br />QP at sec 19 - 10S - 79W; 100 feet upstream of the forest boundary and just above the <br />Little Union confluence and the Mt Massive Diversion <br />Amount: A CWCB instream flow of 8 cfs year round is acceptable, The CWCB <br />instream flow extends from the headwaters to the Arkansas River confluence, CDOW <br />should validate the recommendations at the QP given the extensive road construction <br />occurring on the west side of Weston Pass and the reduced watershed size at the QP as <br />compared to the CWCB instream flow reach, This needs to be added to the current work <br />plan, <br /> <br />3 <br /> <br />-iI,.' <br />
