Spring #16: Cireula Canyon (Table 6). Flow originates from the • <br />interface of shale and sandstone at Spring #16 and was measurable on five <br />of the six samplings ranging fran less than 1 to 3 gpm. On all occasions, <br />flow was absorbed into the alluvium within 100 yards of the source and does <br />not appear to contribute significantly to surface flow. Conductivity and pH <br />ranged from 780 to 984 and 6.4 to 8.0, respectively. The spring does <br />provide livestock and wildlife water, however, is not that important due to <br />the location of a stock pond 200 yards upstream. <br />Spring #17: North of Cireula Canyon (Table 7). This is a minor <br />seep from the interface of shale and sandstone located in a small canyon on <br />the north side of Highway 12. Flow was measured on five of the six <br />samplirgs at 1 or less gpm. Conductivity rarged from 820 to 1148 and pH <br />ranged from 5.9 to 8.7. In all cases the flow was absorbed into the <br />alluvium within 200 yards of the source contributing very little to surface <br />flow. The seep is valuable for livestock and wildlife watering. <br />Spring #18: Parras Canyon (Table 8). The Parras Canyon spring . <br />originates fran the interface of shale and sandstone measuring from less <br />than 1 to 8 gpm. During the August sampling, flow was measured at 50 gpn, <br />however, localized thunderstorms were contributing to surface runoff in the <br />upper reaches of the canyon. Conductivity and pH rarged fran 420 to 588 <br />and 5.9 to 8.4, respectively. Present use of the spring is livestock and <br />wildlife watering while contributing little to overall surface flow. <br />Sorinq #19: At Middle Fork of Purqatoire (Table 9). Flow <br />originating from fractured shale and sandstone was measured at less than 1 <br />to 4 gpm on five of the six months. In all cases the flow was absorbed <br />within 300 yards of the source. Conductivity rarged from 465 to 889 while <br />pH ranged from 6.6 to 8.2. This seep is utilized for livestock and <br />wildlife watering while contributing little to surface flow. <br />Spring # ~ Santistevan Canyon Flume (Table 10). Quality and <br />Quantity of three Santistevan Canyon springs were monitored collectively at <br />2.04-30 <br />
