Losses and Gains for Eight Unlined Canals Along the Purgatoire River Near Trinidad, Colorado, 2000-2004
The U.S. Geological Survey conducted a field study from July 2000 through June 2004, in cooperation with the Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District, Colorado Water Conservation Board, and Bureau of Reclamation, to characterize and quantify losses and gains in Picketwire, Baca, El Moro, Chilili, Enlarged Southside, Model, John Flood, and Hoehne irrigation canals. These canals divert streamflow from the Purgatoire River between Trinidad Dam and the city of Hoehne, Colorado. Discharge measurements were made along the eight canals during steady-state conditions to identify subreaches with losses or gains. Losses and gains were computed between main-channel measurement sites along each canal by equating inflows to outflows plus flow loss or gain in the subreach. As part of this study, multiple discharge measurements also were made at Picketwire, El Moro, Chilili, Enlarged Southside, Model, John Flood, and Hoehne canal headgates to compare standard Parshall flume-rated and measured discharge at the canal headgates.
