from 360 to 889 , while pH ranged from 6 .6 to 8 . 3. This seep is <br /> utilized for livestock and wildlife watering while contributing <br /> little to surface flow. <br /> Spring #20 : Santistevan Canyon Flume (Table 10 ) . Quality <br /> and quantity of 3 Santistevan Canyon springs were monitored <br /> collectively at the flume location placed in the lower canyon. <br /> Flows originating from fractured shales and sandstone were <br /> measured between 3 and 50 gpm. Quality ranged from 504 to 583 <br /> conductivity and 6 . 6 to 8 .7 pH. Current use is livestock and <br /> wildlife watering and for aesthetics as the flow creates a stream <br /> running through the ranchette development in the canyon. These <br /> springs are a valuable contribution to surface flow making <br /> Santistevan Canyon a perennial stream. <br /> Spring #1 : Cherry Canyon (Table 11 ) . This seep originates <br /> from the interface of coal and shale. The spring was dry during <br /> the 1988 survey. <br /> Springs #2-7: Alamosito Canyon (Table 12) . This series of <br /> springs and seeps covered a reach of the canyon and each specific <br /> spring or seep could not be distinguished. The seepage results <br /> from an interface between the coal and shale . Flow and field <br /> parameters were measured below spring #7 with a total flow of 4 <br /> gpm. <br /> Spring #21 : Lopez Canyon (Table 13 ) . This spring appeared <br /> to originate from a minor coal seam. The spring was dry at the <br /> time of the survey. <br /> Springs #22-24 : Wet Canyon (Tables 14 , 15, 16) . Springs in <br /> Wet Canyon were identified by sandstone outcrop areas in the <br /> stream bank. Flow ranged from 2 gpm at #23 to no flow at #24 . <br /> Conductivity and pH compared closely at springs Vs 22 and 23 . <br /> -79- <br />
