plan and timetable for collecting and submitting information from all un- <br />tested holes or areas. <br />(2) Surface Water Information <br />(b) <br />0 <br />Based on figures II.0 -14 through II.0 -16 of the permit application, the <br />inlets for all crest stage gages were approximately one and one -half feet <br />above the stream bottom. The applicant should verify the accuracy of <br />these figures and discuss whether or not any flows occurred during the <br />sampling period which were not recorded by the gages? <br />The applicant has done a good job of characterizing the flow and flow <br />quality of the White River. However, there are some questions regarding <br />Scullion Gulch and Red Wash. <br />o If no flow was recorded for Scullion Gulch, how were water samples <br />obtained at station SWII -1 (Table B -6 of the permit application). <br />What did this water result from? <br />o Pages II.0 -17 through IIC -20 provide a general discussion of runoff <br />for Scullion Gulch and Red Wash, the following questions concern this <br />discussion. <br />- Based on the discussion on page II.0 -17 some runoff from Scullion <br />Gulch is expected in an average year. Above Raven Park Dam there <br />may be sufficient storage in the reservoirs to contain all of the <br />upstream runoff. However, there is approximately 5 to 6 square <br />miles of drainage area below Rasen Park Dam with, essentially, no <br />stock ponds and there should have been some runoff from this <br />area. The applicant needs to provide a more extended discussion <br />of: Whether the 1978 -1979 water year was exceptionally dry; <br />whether runoff can "normally" be expected in Scullion Gulch; and <br />possible impacts from subsidence on the portions of Scullion Gulch <br />which run through the permit area. <br />-5- <br />
