<br />g. Similar process was used to determine each pOI'tion of drainage area in <br />other quadrilaterals. Total summation was made to determine entire <br />area of drainage area in question. <br /> <br />h. Exception to the above procedure is the Fountain River Basin. The area <br />of the total basin above Pueblo, Colorado, as well as pertinent subdivi- <br />sione were determined by the office of the U. S. Forest Service, CSden, <br />Utah, from a base map, scale one inch equals one mile, constructed from <br />aerial photographs by the use of pantograph and controlled by USC&GS <br />triangulation stations and USGS quadrangles. <br /> <br />4. Determination of Drainage Areas. (Fort Sndth, Arkansas to mouth) <br /> <br />a. In connection with preparation of data for liouse DocUlllllnt 308, the <br />total watershed below Fort Sm1th, Arkansas, was plan:lJDetered and. the <br />partial areas were plan:lJDetered and adjusted so that a summation of <br />the partial areas checked the total area. Subsequent to the "308" <br />report, additional areas were determined as required or areas were <br />redetermined where better maps were ave.llable by plan:lJDetering the <br />watershed boundaries. <br /> <br />b . Exceptions to the above procedure are the Petit Jean at Blue Mountain <br />Dam, Waveland, Dutch Creek, Danville, Centerville, Pontoonand Waltreak, <br />Galla Creek and the South Fourche La Fll-ve River at Hollis gage and at <br />the mouth. The drainage areas for these locations were determined by <br />the procedure described for the White !liver Basin. <br /> <br />5. Tabulated breakdown of areas, as indicated in paragraph 2 above, are given <br />in follOWing table form, pagee 1 to 65, inclusive. <br /> <br />GENERAL :rnFORMATION AS TO IJIlE DETERMINATION <br />OF RIVER MILEAGES SJIOWN <br /> <br />!liver mileages were a.etermined from t'l1e latest' available Corps of <br />Engineers survey maps of the streams, supplemented by surveys for reeer- <br />voir areas. If' stream or reservoir survey maps were not available, then <br />mileages were compiled from the latest publiShed maps, such as those <br />prepared by the U. S. Geological Survey, M1esissippi River COmm1SSiOIl, <br />National Forest Service, Bureau of Soils, ~,U.S,D.A., etc. <br /> <br />As a matter of specifiC information the source of certain mileages <br />is as follows. <br /> <br />(1) On the Main stem of the Arkansas !liver old mileages frpm the <br />"308" rsport were used upstream from the Kansas-Oklahoma State <br />line. New mileages were used in -the lower reach of the river, <br />which IDileaaee 'IIere il.e....ermineil. by lllf>aeuring along a line mid.- <br />way between banks on the 1940-41 Survey Maps of the Arkansas <br />River report prepared by the Corps of Engineers. The mileage <br />equation at the State line is old river mile 697.0 = new river <br />mile 689.2 <br /> <br />B <br />
