Streamflow Studies

Martin and Wood personnel conduct streamflow studies to determine exchange potential, dry-up locations, water potentially available for diversion, effects of water call scenarios, and evaluation of instream flow rights.

Bromley Companies

The Bromley Companies’ plans for delivery of pumped Denver Basin groundwater involved the use of Plum Creek as a transport mechanism to move the water to the South Platte River and then to delivery points downstream of the Denver metropolitan area. To optimize delivery plans and to develop a delivery schedule that could reliably be applied in all but the most severe drought years, Martin and Wood analyzed gage data from several points on Plum Creek and developed a gage correlation and live flow frequency analysis that revealed that a critical reach of the creek typically dried up for a fairly consistent period every year, as evidenced by the historical gage data. This information was integrated into a delivery agreement with the Town of Lochbuie that provided the needed volume under reliable and predictable conditions.
