Excerpt from Biennial Report of the State Engineer, Colorado, 1907-1908, Vol. 1

This office made 110 ratings of canals during the past two years, besides a great number of miscellaneous measurements. The rating station in the South Platte at Denver; South Boulder at Marshall, Boulder Creek at Boulder; St. Vrain at Lyons, and Big Thompson at Handy Dam were maintained by this office during the past two years. These required a number of gaugings from time to time to obtain sufficient data for making of an accurate rating curve. The expense of these canal readings and maintaining the gaging stations were paid from funds of this office. The policy of paying for canal ratings was met with general approval by canal owners. This kind of work Should be extended so that everv canal of importance Should be rated at least once every year.

This office also cooperated with the United States Geological Survey by paying the gage readers at the following river sta tions: Arkansas River at Canon City, Pueblo and Holly; Clear Creek at Forks Creek; Conejos at Mogote; Cucharas at Walsen burg; Purgatory at Trinidad; Rio Grande at I'i'ason, Del Norte and Lobatos South Fork of South Platte at South Platte; South Platte at Kersey and Julesburg, and North Fork of South Platte at Cassells.
