permit area) of these two draws. Water quality data from the 16 new surface water monitoring <br />sites at NHN area are contained in Appendix 2.04.7-2 of this permit application. Glasier Draw and <br />Meehan Draw provide about 811 ac -ft of flow to the upper reaches of Coal Canyon this flow has <br />a weighted average quality of about 1320 mg/l TDS. The baseline water quality analyses from <br />the new sites indicate that the water flowing into the permit area is better than the water flowing <br />out of the permit area. This indicates a natural degradation in water quality that is expected. Table <br />2.04.7-6 summarizes the water quality flowing into the NHN permit area. Table 2.04.7-7 is a <br />summary of the surface water quality flowing out of the permit area. The data in Tables 2.04.7-6 <br />and 2.04.7-7 only includes the sites that have been monitored since 2008. The Meehan Draw (SW - <br />N202) and Glasier Draw (SW -N203) out -flow quality differs significantly with the in -flow quality <br />of the 2nd Park Lateral (SW -N209) irrigation water. The irrigation water quality between SW - <br />N200 and SW -N209 in the 2nd Park Lateral is very similar for this 3,700 ft. section of the ditch. <br />The irrigation water is suitable for domestic drinking water although it does have a relatively high <br />(untreated) pH, (see Table 2 CDPHE WQCC Regulation No. 41). The water in the drainages is <br />suitable for livestock and irrigation but unsuitable (high in sulfates >250mg/1) for domestic <br />drinking water (see Table 2, 3 and 4 CDPHE WQCC Regulation No.41). Measurement of water <br />quality in Coal Canyon site CSS (3/11/2011) showed TDS of 2940 mg/l with sulfate at 1890 mg/1. <br />Section 2.04.7 Page 24 Sept. 2015 (TR -11) <br />
