<br />l J <br />Hydrologic Monitoring Activists <br />1990 water year for these sites are presented in <br />Appendix B and Appendix C, respectively. <br />Seasonal (three times per year) water samples wore <br />taken at all surface water monitoring stations <br />except the USGS North Fork station. Measured <br />parameters included pH, conductivity, temperature, <br />total dissolved solids, total suspcnded solids, total <br />iron, and total manganese. Sampling results are <br />summarized in Appendix D. Minimum and maxi- <br />mum information for the baseline monitoring <br />period is compared with water year 1990 data for <br />the Sylvester Gulch and North Fork Upper sta- <br />tions in Appendix E. <br />Spring Water Monitoring <br />Seven springs were monitored during the 1990 <br />water year (Table 2). Their locations are shown on <br />Exhibit [. Atl known springs in the lease area are <br />shown on Exhibit 2.8.1.B. in Volume 3 oC the M <br />and R Plan. <br />fn accordance with U.S. Forest Service (USES) <br />stipulations, a map of USES water resourccs has <br />been includcd as Exhibit III. Table 3 summarizes <br />the resourccs. Some of the USES water resources <br />are springs. No changes in the USES Water Re- <br />sources Map are necessary for 1990 because no <br />new rights were filed Cor or new uses made in 1990 <br />in the lease area. <br />Seasonal measurements (three times per ycar) of <br />pH, conductivity, tempcrature, total dissolved <br />solids, total suspcnded solids, total iron, and total <br />manganese were taken at each of the sevcn springs. <br />Measured Oows, field parameters, and the results <br />of laboratory analysts are presented in <br />Appendix F. Maximum and minimum comparisons <br />are presented in Appendix E. Bar graphs depicting <br />spring flows From 1979 to the present have been <br />included as Appendix G. <br />Of the sevcn springs, only springs G-14, G-16, and <br />G-20, were sampled during ]990. Flows at the <br />other four springs were either nonexistent or <br />insufficient for sampling during all three sampling <br />periods. Consequently, water quality data arc <br />available only for springs G-14, G-16, and G-20. <br />Groundwater Monitoring <br />Twenty-three wells were monitored during the <br />1990 water ycar (Table 4). Their locations are <br />shown on Exhibit 1. Sampling frequency for water <br />levels and water quality was 3 times per year. <br />Monitored parameters includcd water level, pH, <br />conductivity, tempcrature, mtal dissolved solids, <br />'fable 2 Summary of the Spring Monitoring Program of the M1it.
