-14- <br />The conductivity along Good Spring Creek gradually increased • <br />I from upstream to downstream sites as coould be expected. There <br />wzis no significant jump in the conductivities near the mouth of <br />i <br />r Si:reeter Canyon where effects of. contaminated ground water would <br />!1 bey expected. <br />Tyre surface and ground water quality were both found to be high- <br />lp~ variable in terms of specific conductivity from the historical <br />1 data. The measurements made in 1979 were within the range of <br />1 va.riat.ion seen in 1974 and 1975, though they were in general <br />lower than the historical data. The most probable explanation <br />of this apparent increase in water quality may be a dilutiom <br />effect from the relatively high runoff throughout the spring <br />1 and summer of 1979. There is no evidence of contamination of <br />„_ the ground water by the surface mining of Colowyo. <br />C • <br />L <br />L <br />L <br />L ~ - <br />L • <br />Leonard Rice Consulting Water Engineers.lnc. <br />
