4. FLOW RECOMMENDATIONS 



Cross sectional data were collected in a 190 foot run sequence located 



approximately at stream mile .1 (T3N, R12W, Sec. 34BC). Five cross sections 



were placed within this sequence. The WETP program was calibrated to field 

 data collected at flows of 12.7, 5.7 and 1.8 cfs. 



The relationship between wetted perimeter and discharge for a composite 

 of three run cross sections is shown in Figure 6. Lower and upper inflection 

 points occur at 2 and 3.5 cfs. Based on an evaluation of the existing fishery 

 and recreational use potential, a flow of 2.5 cfs is recommended for the low 

 flow period (July 1 - April 30). Due to a lack of long term flow data, 

 recommendations for the high flow period (May 1 - June 30) cannot be derived 

 for Sevenmile Creek.
