    An Environmental History of the Middle Rio Grande Basin

    United States Department of From the Rio to the Sierra: Agriculture Forest Service An Environmental History of Rocky Mountain Research Station the Middle Rio Grande Basin Fort Collins, Colorado 80526 General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-5 Dan Scurlock i Scurlock, Dan. 1998. From the rio to the sierra: An environmental history of the Middle Rio Grande Basin. General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-5. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 440 p. Abstract Various human groups have greatly affected the processes and evolution of Middle Rio Grande Basin ecosystems, especially riparian zones, from A.D. 1540 to the present. Overgrazing, clear-cutting, irrigation farming, fire suppression, intensive hunting, and introduction of exotic plants have combined with droughts and floods to bring about environmental and associated cultural changes in the Basin. As a result of these changes, public laws were passed and agencies created to rectify or mitigate various environmental problems in the region. Although restoration and remedial programs have improved the overall “health” of Basin ecosystems, most old and new environmental problems persist.

Besides having specific implications for the formation of these particular features, our project will aid in understanding similar structures across the Colorado Plateau. Various researchers [e.g., Rubin, 1991; Mériaux and Jaupart, 1998; Segall et al., 2001] imagine the emplacement of a dike as vertical movement through host rock, often along preexisting faults or cracks, driven by magma pressure, and modified by the change in stress regime with depth. Other models [e.g., Delaney and Pollard, 1981; Quareni et al., 2001] allow magma to flow in pipes in addition to, and possibly following, its emplacement in dikes. Our results will provide valuable data against which to test such competing models of magma emplacement, and Figure 1: View of the Ship Rock diatreme from the – in a wider sense – aid in understanding diverse South-East (Photo: Brett Mayhew) processes like hydraulic fracturing, tensile fracturing, and dike-generated seismicity [Baer, Seven dikes of mafic minette (a potassic mica 1991]. lamprophyre containing phlogopite) extend from the diatreme.

    81 THE WASHINGTON PASS VOLCANIC CENTER: EVOLUTION AND ERUPTION OF MINETTE MAGMAS OF THE NAVAJO VOLCANIC FIELD S.N. Ehrenberg (Department of Earth and Space Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles, California 90024) Minettes of the Navajo Volcanic Field are of interest because they formed at depths of at least 150 km and appear to be genetically related to kimberlite diatremes. Minettes and their extrusive equivalents (tra- chybasalts) at the 2 km diameter subsidence crater at Washington Pass were chosen for detailed study because of the relatively well-developed eruptive history displayed in the crater stratigraphy and the presence of contrasting mafic and trachytic lavas. Eruption began with ejection of voluminous pyroclastic deposits, including both tuff-breccias, composed predominantly of comminuted sediments with subordinate minette and cry¬ stalline basement fragments, and agglomerates, composed mainly of minette clasts. These deposits are thickest (>100 m) on the east and west sides of the crater, where they are exposed in cliffs produced by landsliding. On the west, tuff-breccias predominate and exhibit a remark¬ able alternation of coarse- and fine-grained beds 0.1 - 1 m thick, suggest¬ ive of rhythmic variation in the physical properties in the eruptive med¬ ium. On the east, the pyroclastic materials are mostly agglo¬ merates. Low-angle cross-bedding is common in all the pyroclastic beds, but in the eastern agglomerates this feature is accompanied by dune structures. Some of these formed by accretion on the lee side, while others display accretion on the side facing the crater. Asymmetrical bomb sags are also abundant in this area.

The FONSI represents final compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act on thc approval of an agrecmcnt between the Public Service Company of Ncw Mexico (PNM) and the Jicarilla Apachc Nation. This significs that the agreement is clcared from an cnvironmental compliance perspective for future approval by the Secretaryof the Interior through Burcau of Reclamation.

A Draft Environmental Assessmentwas released to the public on July 31,2001, for public review and comment.

The north half of the site lies within the South San Juan Wilderness in the San Juan and Rio Grande National Forests, while the southern portion is within the Navajo Headwaters Ranch, a privately owned working ranch. The landowners are interested in the conservation of the ranch's natural resources and are working with members of the local community including biologists to maintain the quality of the area. Navajo Creek and its headwaters are home to a population of native Colorado River cutthroat trout ( Oncorhynchus clarkii pleuriticus). This particular population of cutthroat trout is genetically pure and believed to be indigenous to the area. The Colorado Division of Wildlife has classified this trout population as a Conservation Population because of its genetic purity. The population is above a falls on the Navajo River and is thereby protected from invasion by non-native trout.
