2.os.s(s) <br />Hubbard Creek and Terror Creek are perennial streams which drain <br />approximately 35 and 29 square miles respectively. Both are important <br />sources of irrigation water. The flow in Terror Creek is supplemented during <br />periods of low flow by discharges from the Terror Creek Reservoir which is <br />formed by an earthen embankment. <br />Groundwater within the Mesaverde formation has been found to be of low <br />quality and limited extend. See section 2.04.7 for a thorough discussion of <br />the groundwater within the permit and adjacent area. <br />Portions of Hubbard Creek road and Terror Creek road are within the permit <br />boundary and adjacent area and are protected from subsidence damage by <br />limited extraction zones in the areas where serious damage could occur. <br />Numerous jeep trails cross areas of predicted substantial subsidence. <br />However, subsidence should not result in serious damage to the roads <br />provided surface fracturing and cracking does not accompany the <br />subsidence. Any minor damage which occurred could be readily repaired <br />with a grader and/or dozer. <br />• Various access roads and trails have been constructed for past exploratory <br />drilling and existing hunting use. These trails are not surfaced and have <br />limited access and traffic. The trails are used for monitoring of <br />environmental resources. <br />The power line that parallels Terror Creek is owned by the Department of <br />Energy, Western Power Administration. It is the Curecanti-Rifle 230/345-KV <br />transmission line. The ROW for the line is 125 feet in width and includes <br />access roads. The transmission line structures are steel lattice with buried <br />reinforced concrete bases. <br />The Operator's structures are described in Section 2.05.3(3)(a). <br />(a)(ii)(B) <br />The creeks, ponds, springs, reservoir, access roads, trails and power line <br />alignment are shown on Map 9, Hydrologic Monitoring Location. The <br />location of the water rights are presented on Map 23, W ater Rights Location. <br />The location of the lower and upper perched water bearing zones are <br />presented on Maps 10 and 11 respectively. <br />• <br />TR-031 <br />2.05 - 101 - 02/04 <br />APPRovE/~ <br />~~ ~e 4 <br />
