HYDROLOGIC CHARACTERIZATION AND MONITORING PLAN <br />4.1 Surface Water Monitoring Program <br />15 <br />The surface lands of the WEM are drained to the north by the North Fork of the Gunnison River <br />(North Fork), to the south by Minnesota Creek, to the west by Gribble Gulch, and to the east by <br />Deep Creek/Raven Gulch (Plate 1). The surface water monitoring program for the permit area <br />includes 21 stream stations comprised of 10 sites with continuous recording devices and 11 sites <br />where flow is recorded instantaneously. The stream surface water monitoring sites are divided <br />into three general hydrologic areas for discussion purposes: <br />• Stations in the Upper North Fork drainage basin, <br />• Stations in the Lower North Fork drainage basin; and <br />• Stations in the Minnesota Creek drainage basin. <br />The locations of the 21 surface water monitoring stations are shown on Plate 1. The following <br />discussion of the surface water stations on the major drainages and the tributaries to these <br />drainages is presented from upstream to downstream areas. A summary of the surface water <br />monitoring program details is presented in Table 7. <br />Revised 09/07- PR12; 08/16- TR139 HydroGeo, Inc <br />
