Relation Central Utah Project; Western Waters Digital Library; rock creek belo below w upper stillwater damsite adamsite Dam site is rated as class iia II a fishery of statewide importance recommended minimum flows designed to prevent substantial loss to natural fisheries i no i of 20 20109 and 25 251 cfs cs have been determined as essential the existing unit plan partially accommodates these recommendations and a 25 cfs cs minimum flow would be maintained at the forest indian reservation boundary between the proposed damsite adamsite and the indian reservation boundary flows during the critical winter period would range from a minimum of 5 cfs cs 8 cfs cs is the average of a 5 to 11 cfs cs range estimated release at the dam and gradually increase to 25 cfs cs in the 8 mile reach through the national forest this means that of approximately 23 miles of stream below upper stillwater dam that would receive reduced flows the floa flow in about 16 miles of class 111 III lil stream would exceed the recommended minimum and much of the existing fish habitat would be preserved c south fork of rock creek docs diversion structure an appurtenance of strawberry aqueduct would intercept south fork of rock creek 1.3 13 13 miles above the confluence with rock creek and 0.7 07 07 mile above USGS gaging station no 92780 9 2780 flows up to the 100 cfs cs capacity of the inlet structure would be diverted to upper stillwater reservoir except for a 15 cfs cs intermittent bypass during the summer months for downstream electrical power rights the october to march winter flows at the diversion point would be expected to be in the 3 to 8 cfs cs range although a minimum flow of 1.5 15 15 cfs cs was recorded during march 1963 the total annual amount of water that would be diverted is estimated at 9000 acre feet with only 100 acre feet of spills and minor bypasses bypasseso bypass eso the near total diversion from this tributary would be expected to destroy most of the existing aquatic habitat in this 13 mile section of class 111 III ili ill trout fishery d hades creek strawberry aqueduct would intercept hades creek at a point 3000 feet above the confluence with 306
