Baseflow analysis adapted from computer program Rutledge (1998, USGS W-RIR 98-4148; updated 2012). Estimated 7Q10 low flows updated using USGS Hydrologic Toolbox - Barlow, P.M., et al., 2022, TM 4-D3, 23 p. Precipitation data is from 30-year normals 1991-2020 PRISM Group, Oregon State University, https://prism.oregonstate.edu, accessed 05 June 2025. Data was originally prepared by P.A. Hammond and J. Smith on 10/31/2000 and revised by J.P. Stokes and L. Reed on 06/05/2025. </span></span></p><p style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255); border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; color:rgb(74, 74, 74); font-family:"Avenir Next", Avenir, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif; font-size:16px; font-style:normal; font-variant-caps:normal; font-variant-ligatures:normal; font-weight:400; letter-spacing:normal; margin:0px 0px 1.5rem; text-align:start; text-decoration-color:initial; text-decoration-style:initial; text-indent:0px; text-transform:none; word-spacing:0px;"><span style="font-family:"Avenir Next W01", "Avenir Next W00", "Avenir Next", Avenir, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif; font-size:16px;"><span style="border:0px solid currentcolor; box-sizing:border-box; line-height:1.5;">This information is for planning purposes only and does not replace a site-specific analysis for a water appropriations permit.</span></span></p><p>Disclaimer: This layer should be used for guidance purpose only.
