Show 35 -- 32-- of them that he has described. In giving the second- feet of water encountered during the flood, he obtained the information at different times from the gouging stations. As he remembered it, it was 119,000 second- feet. He did not learn what the gouging was at Greenriver, Utah. He learned the height of the water at the gauge, and also that the height given indicated about so much water. " By the Special Master: " Q It was approximately five of six times as much? " A Yes, sir." R. 89. The water from the side streams that flow into the Green River is not of any consequence. The San Rafael is not much of a river at that time of the year. The Colorado River flows into the Green. " Q And all of the tributaries between the confluence and the point where you were when you had the flood? " A Well, they are so inconsequential that it is like a quart of water in the river." R. 90 He obtained 119,000 second- feet of water reading at Lees Ferry. The San Juan River comes into the Colorado River above that gouging station. " but I think I have subtracted the amount of water in the San Juan. As I remember the gouge reading, it was 127,000 second feet at Lees Ferry, and the estimated amount of water in Cataract Canyon was 119,000. So I think the 119,000 represents Cataract Canyon alone. That is something that can be very easily determined by referring to the records." R. 90. " The Green River itself was flowing probably 20,000 |
