Walters Meters Calibrated: YES Weather Conditions : Sampling was late by two days but will be counted as Third Quarter Sampling. The wester related water conditions did not change since the last days of the previous quarter. The year has been very dry. East Salt Creek was bone dry bertween August 2 and September 5. Isolated stones during the last month have left a minor amount of water in some sumps near the mines.

Only East Salt Creek was flowing. • The flow at both sites was too low to be measured -Flow was estimated.
