MonitoringLocationName IDUSRIC
MonitoringLocationDescriptionText IDUSRIC is an irrigation return flow monitoring station on I Coulee located on private property within the Twin Falls Irrigation Tract (TFIT) which is managed by the Twin Falls Canal Company (TFCC), in the Upper Snake Rock watershed. This coulee is a tributary of the Snake River that seasonally contains precipitation runoff and irrigation return flow, and continuous flow from subsurface drainage within the TFCC. Water stage at a 7 ft weir is automatically recorded by a data logger operated by the Idaho Department of Water Resources (IDWR). Weekly the ARS manually collects a water quality sample, records the gage height, and records the water and air temperature all year. The actual drainage area may vary due to the area encompassing the irrigation supply and irrigation return flow paths that may not correspond with the DEM.
