2.04.7 Hydrology Description <br />• not visible from the air photographs were then located by standard field <br />mapping procedures. <br />The Operator considered seeps and springs synonymous during the <br />hydrology investigation. Ponds were presumably recharged by colluvial <br />seepage and as such no quality information is obtained for the ponds unless <br />they are discharging. Within the permit area seeps are common, especially <br />where colluvial material has been excavated to form storage ponds or roads. <br />Seeps are also common at the toe of colluvial material where the material <br />lies within a defined drainage. Seeps are presumably important in <br />maintaining discharge into storage ponds. Typical flows are approximately <br />less than five gallons per minute and most flows infiltrate back into the <br />ground before reaching a stream. <br />The Operator owns seven springs located within the permit boundary that are <br />decreed water rights shown on Map 23 - Water Rights Location. See the <br />following table. The J & M Springs & Pipelines are claimed for domestic and <br />stock watering purposes. Water right numbers 1 and 3 are decreed for 4 <br />gallons per minute. Number 2 is decreed for 2 gpm. Numbers 4 and 5 are <br />decreed for 5 gpm. The Bowie Spring S -3 is decreed for 15 gallons per <br />minute. The Leonard Spring No. 1 and 2 and the Barrow Spring and <br />pipeline water rights each have an absolute decree of 0.10 cfs. The decreed <br />• water rights located on the Applicant's land are owned by the Applicant. <br />1 <br />J & M Spring & PL No. 1 <br />Springs 5 & 5A and Pond 5 <br />2 <br />J& M Spring & PL No. 2 <br />Spring 2 <br />3 <br />J & M Spring & PL No. 3 <br />Spring 4 & 4a and Pond 4 <br />4 <br />J & M Spring & PL No. 4 <br />Spring 16 and Pond 3 <br />5 <br />J & M Spring & PL No. 5 <br />Spring 18 and Pond 6 <br />6 <br />Bowie Spring S -3 <br />7 <br />Barrow Spring & Pipeline <br />Pond and Spring 17 <br />8 <br />Leonard Spring No. 1 & 2 <br />Pond and Spring 20 <br />pond and Spring 7 -1 <br />Spring 7 -10 <br />The USDA -FS has eight decreed water rights within the permit boundary. <br />See following table and Map 23. Six of the water rights are ponds and two <br />are springs and ponds. One of the ponds, water rights 84, has not been field <br />verified or monitored by the Operator. Water right 93 is a pond for which the <br />FS is unable to ascertain a location. Four of the FS water rights have been <br />assigned a range improvement inventory numbers (RIIN). <br />Water Right Summary <br />Water Right <br />Spring /Pond Designation <br />Decree <br />Date Owner <br />81 <br />Pond 33 -11 <br />0.1 AF <br />12/31/1970 FS <br />PR -12 2.04-29- 06/10 <br />/� PPR <br />
