The draft letter and memo are attached for BOSAC’s review, although this topic will be discussed at the 2/12 Council meeting, rather than the BOSAC meeting. Cucumber Gulch Preserve signage Staff has hired Erin McGinnis of McGraphix to review and design the sign family for the Cucumber Gulch Preserve. We anticipate receiving design work and sample materials from Erin in the coming weeks and may need to schedule a second BOSAC meeting in February (on 2/24) to review Erin’s work.

Copyright © 2006 Colorado State University Colorado Natural Heritage Program All Rights Reserved EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The primary objective of the Clean Water Act is to "maintain and restore the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the Nation's waters," which includes wetlands. In order to make informed management decisions aimed at minimizing loss or protecting wetland acreage and function, credible data on the integrity of Colorado’s wetlands need to be collected (U.S. EPA 2002a). An index of biotic integrity is a cost-effective and direct way to evaluate the biotic integrityof a wetland by measuring attributes of the biological community known to respond to human disturbance.

  • A Historical View: Transmount Ain Diversion Development in Colorado
    A HISTORICAL VIEW: TRANSMOUNT AIN DIVERSION DEVELOPMENT IN COLORADO John N. Winchester, P.E.' ABSTRACT As the headwaters for seven major rivers, water resources in Colorado have been diverted for use for over ISO years. Transbasin diversions have been developed to move water from one river basin to another, including transmountain diversions, which move water over the continental divide. Transmountain diversions have historically been developed to provide water for irrigated agriculture and municipal purposes. This paper briefly discusses the development of each of Colorado's 30 transmountain diversions between the Colorado, South Platte, Arkansas and Rio Grande river basins, and provides a summary of diversions for recent years. INTRODUCTION Many people in the Colorado water community have traditionally divided transbasin diversions into two categories: transmountain diversions, which move water from one side of the continental divide to the other, and transbasin, where water is moved between basins that ultimately drain to the same ocean. In addition to surface water diversions, there are also geological formations that allow wells located in one basin to pump water native to another. BACKGROUND Based on the 2000 Census and the Colorado State Engineer's records, the front range of Colorado (the east slope, excluding the North Platte and Rio Grande basins) has 89% of the state's population but only 16% of the state's water (USCB, 2000; SE~, 2000). Because the front range and the eastern plains of Colorado are in a semi-arid environment, transmountain diversions, diversions from one side of the continental divide to the other, have been constructed to move water to the eastern slope to help satisfy the region's demand for water.
