Excerpt from Seventeenth Biennial Report of the State Engineer to the Governor of Colorado, Vol. 2: For the Years 1913 1914

The method of computing the run-off is that used by the United States Geological Survey, in order that the records will not differ from the Government records on account of difference in the methods of computing.

The drainage areas have been computed from U. S. Geological Survey topographic sheets, U. S. Forest Atlas or Hayden's Atlas.

The altitudes given are those given for the nearest town and may be in error a few hundred feet, but should be accurate enough to make a comparison of the run-off at various altitudes.

Seepage measurements have been made on the more impor tant streams of the State where possible. The results of these measurements will be found in Volume I with a short discussion of the conditions affecting the results.
