Overview: In coordination with permitted sand and gravel mining on a property located at the confluence of the South Platte and Cache La Poudre Rivers, Fort Morgan Farms will have the right to develop the resulting gravel pits on the property into a reservoir complex (the “Fort Morgan Farms Reservoir Complex”). Each storage vessel will be constructed with soil-bentonite slurry-trench cutoff wall(s) and/or any other impermeable barrier(s) including, but not limited to, earth-berms and/or clay liners that have been designed, constructed and utilized to circumscribe, line and seal the former gravel pits, so that the water storage cells thus created meet and/or exceed the Construction and Performance Standards as set forth by the Office of the State Engineer in the “Design Standards” and the “Construction Standards” in the “State Engineer Guidelines for Lining Criteria for Gravel Pits,” dated August 1999, as it may be amended or restated from time to time.

INDEX OF SURFACE-WATER RECORDS PART ~-MISSOURI RIVER BASIN TO SEPrEMBER 80, 1960 Explanation The index lists the stream-flow and reservoir stations in the Missouri River :Basin for which records have been collected and published (or are to be published) for periods prior to September 30, 1950. The stations on streams, canals, lakes, and reservoirs are listed in downstream order. Tribu­ tary streams are indicated by indention. Of the stations in Canada oilly those for which records have been or soon will be published by the Geological Survey in water-supply papers have been in- cluded in the index. · Station names are given in their most recently published forms. Parentheses around part of a station name indicate that the enclosed word or words were used in an earlier published name of the station or in a name under which records were published by some agency other than the Geological Survey. ' Discharge records for many stations on canals have been published only by state aaencies, and the names of these caul stations usually have been extended to identify them more fully. For a canal diverting from a main stream, the name of the nearest town has usually been added to the name of the canal; for a canal diverting from a minor tributary, the words "diversion from" followed by the name of the tributary have usually been added to the name of the canal station.

By John Woodling Designed and Edited by Russ Bromby Published June, 1985, by the COLORADO DIVISION OF WILDLIFE Department of Natural Resources 6060 Broadway, Denver, CO 80216 Telephone: 303/297-1192 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many people helped in the preparation of this book. Without their aid, comple- tion of the work would have been impossible. To these people I offer my most sincere thanks and appreciation. Charles Bennett, Gerald Bennett, Steve Burge, James Chadwick, Scott Chartier, Larry Finnell, John Goettl, Mike Japhet, Bob Judy, Rick Kahn, Robin Knox, Mike McAllister, Charlie Munger, Dave Ruiter, Jay Sarason, Clee Sealing, Jay Stafford, Roger Trout, Bill Weiler, Bill Wiltzius, Lawrence Zuckerman and others all spent time and effort in locating records, collecting, and in some cases, transporting live fish across large distances. Jim Bennett, Charles Haynes and Dave Miller not only helped locating specimens but reviewed large portions of text. Wilbur BoIdt provided needed assistance in obtaining and maintaining funds to produce this book. Gil Dalrymple, Carol Dreitz and Pat Barnett spent many hours typing the manuscript. Special thanks to Marian Herschopf, whose diligent efforts produced many obscure documents and materials essential to production of this text. PREFACE Colorado's Little Fish is a bit of a misnomer. Some species included in this book attain a length of greater than one foot and weigh in excess of three pounds. Specimens of one fish in the book, the Colorado squawfish, have been recorded up to 65 pounds.
