    Westbrook Rd by Will McDearman

    Very low flow if at all, test site virtually a pool at 0.75 m deep, stage from USGS gauge downstream at Hwy 25. Testing done at alternative upstream site, just upstream from abandoned Lake Hico water intake structure. Alternative site is biologically equivalent to regular test site. Alternative site not typically used because of very steep vertical river banks that can be slippery and are difficult to descend. Alternative site used on this test because of very dry weather and ability to descend.
