Proportion of Surface Water Inflow into Cherry Creek Reservoir

The estimated WY 2020 flow at CC-10, just upstream of the Reservoir on Cherry Creek totaled 14,832 AF with an average daily discharge of 40.6 AF (20.5 cfs). The estimated WY 2020 flow at the CT-2 monitoring site located upstream of the Reservoir on Cottonwood Creek totaled 3,133 AF with an average daily discharge of 8.6 AF (4.3 cfs).

No ISCO measurements were available for Station CC-10 from April 16 to May 3, 2020, due to instrument upgrades, and for Station CT-2 from January 16 to February 10, 2020, as a result of battery failure. Daily depths for the missing dates were interpolated to estimate flows for the affected dates.
