lI. PRECIPITATION DATA <br />• Precipitation data for the environs of the Nucla Mine from January <br />1980 through September 1986 are presented in Table 1. Average <br />annual precipitation is approximately 14 inches. Except for 1980, <br />precipitation for the period-of-record has been above normal, <br />especially during 1983, 1984, and 1985 when average annual <br />precipitation was exceeded by at least four inches. However, <br />because these data are collected at stations more than ten miles <br />away (Norwood and Uravan) from the Nucla Mine and are thus not <br />site-specific, it is important that these data should only be used <br />to assess regional precipitation trends. <br />• <br />r 1 <br />LJ <br />3 <br />
