Publication_Date: 200202 Title: Northeast Wyoming River Basins Plan Edition: First Edition Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: document Publication_Information: Publication_Place: Cheyenne, Wyoming Publisher: Wyoming Water Development Commission Other_Citation_Details: The Northeast Wyoming River Basins Plan was authorized by the 2000 Wyoming Legislature as part of the State Water Plan. The planning area is located in all or portions of Campbell, Crook, Weston, Niobrara, Converse, Natrona, and Goshen Counties, Wyoming. The planning area encompasses the Little Missouri, Belle Fourche, Cheyenne, and Niobrara River Basins. Online_Linkage: http://waterplan.state.wy.us/ Description: Abstract: This dataset contains 1:250,000-scale climatic area boundaries for the Northeast Wyoming River Basins Planning Area. These boundaries are primarily based on the 1:250,000-scale hydrologic unit code level 4 boundaries developed by the USGS. Some of the HUCs are unchanged, others have been merged, and still others have been subdivided. Where two climate stations are assigned to one feature, the stations are weighted 50-50 when determining irrigation demands (consumptive irrigation requirements, consumptive use, irrigation diversion amount, etc). Purpose: This dataset was modified for the Northeast Wyoming River Basins Plan from the 1:250,000-scale Hydrologic Unit Code Level 4 Boundary (clipped to the state) dataset also created for the Northeast Wyoming River Basins Plan. The dataset was developed to assign climate stations to mapped irrigated lands for purposes of determining agricultural water use and demands.

Use_Constraints: This data was extracted, clipped and merged specifically for use in the Northeast Wyoming River Basins Plan project. These data were digitized at a scale of 1:250,000 with some portions of the (countrywide) coverage at 1:100,000- and 1:2,000,000-scales. Limitations of the data strictly revolve around this scale input. Use of these boundaries with larger scale data (i.e. 1:24,000 hydrography) is not recommended as it would be beyond resolution capabilities of the dataset.

Other HUCs were subdivided to allow different assignments of climate stations (e.g. Clear Creek, Crazy Woman Creek, Beaver Creek, Upper Belle Fourche). After this step, those areas that were assigned the same climate station and were also included in the same water availability spreadsheet model were merged into one feature (e.g. Middle Fork Powder and the upper portion of the Upper Powder; Dry Fork Cheyenne, Lightning Creek, Lance Creek, and others). All features were then attributed with one to two climate stations.
