4. FLOW RECOMMENDATIONS 



Cross sectional data were collected from a 232 foot riffle-run sequence 

 located approximately at stream mile .75 (T2N, R12W, Sec 4A). Five cross 

 sections were placed within this sequence. The WETP program was calibrated 

 to field data collected at flows of 24.5, 16.9, 7.7 and 1.8 cfs. 



The relationship between wetted perimeter and discharge for a composite 

 of two riffle cross sections is shown in Figure 12. Lower and upper inflection 

 points occur at 1.5 and 2.5 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.
