Streamgaging

To properly analyze stream flow of a hydrologic system, flow records must be obtained. Many times adequate records do not exist and clients are required to obtain actual streamflow data. States West has the equipment and highly trained personnel to conduct on-site streamflow measurement and installation of continuous recording stations and operation and maintenance.

    Beaver Creek Dam and Reservoir Project -- Weston County Wyoming
    Client Information

    Completion Date:    1990

    Project Description   
    Beaver Creek Reservoir was proposed as a recreation reservoir located near Newcastle in Weston County, Wyoming. Basin hydrology was assessed for an area characterized by intermittent and ephemeral stream flows with few gauging stations. A reservoir and basin operation model was developed, which incorporated water rights and daily stream flow components. Based upon the study, an 8,000 acre-foot capacity reservoir was selected. Because the proposed reservoir would be located on a stream with poor water  quality and high sediment load, reservoir quality and sedimentation studies were performed. Using available quality data from a nearby gage, a 45-year daily total dissolved solids (TDS) record was synthesized for the reservoir site. A water quality component was programmed into the operation model, and reservoir TDS and reservoir release TDS were simulated for the 45-year period.
