Hydrogeophysical, water quality, and stream tracer data collected along the Lake Fork Creek corridor and wetland area in Leadville, Colorado, 2023 and 2024 Hydrogeophysical, water quality, and stream tracer data collected along the Lake Fork Creek corridor and wetland area in Leadville, Colorado, 2023 and 2024
Multiple sources of mine drainage including discharge from the abandoned Dinero mine tunnel and two gulches flow into a wetland, known herein as the Dinero wetland along the Lake Fork Creek corridor. The Dinero wetland is approximately xx acres in extent. The Dinero wetland is being considered as a location for passive treatment of the mine drainage flowing through it. As such, study...

Groundwater-level elevations in the Denver Basin bedrock aquifers and Upper Black Squirrel Creek alluvial aquifer, El Paso County, Colorado, 2021–24 Groundwater-level elevations in the Denver Basin bedrock aquifers and Upper Black Squirrel Creek alluvial aquifer, El Paso County, Colorado, 2021–24
El Paso County is the second-most populous county in Colorado and is projected to grow another 15 percent by 2030. Within El Paso County is the Upper Black Squirrel Creek Designated Groundwater Basin (Black Squirrel Basin), an area where surface water is scarce and water users rely primarily on groundwater from five different aquifers (the Upper Black Squirrel Creek alluvial aquifer and...
