Abstract | A survey of the Upper Arkansas River Basin was made during the period of November 15-19, 1948, to evaluate public health problems to be encountered in connection with the initial development of the Gunnison-Arkansas Project. This project in Colorado had irrigation as its main purpose. Consideration was given to: topography, climate, channel characteristics, population, flow data, agriculture, industry, stream pollution problems, domestic and industrial water supplies, benefits, recreation areas, and the construction phase of the project. Recommendations for the project are also made. |
