cent of the flood waters enter the I
main stream.
The mean annual rainfall in the
Edwards Plauteau is not excessive,,
but it has been very destructive. The
United States weather bureau rec-1
ords show that the average at Llano
from 1904 to 1929, was 23.77 inches. Al
i Colorado City, just above the Ed-
wards Plauteau, it was 23.68 inches
Consequently, the general average
was probably slightly less than two I
feet.
On this subject the engineers of the
war department in their report say:
“This region is hilly, has a thin
rocky soil, is large in area and, al I
though the mean rainfall is not so
great as farther down the river, the!
rains are torrential and all conditions
I are favorable to a rapid run-off.”
The records of the United Stat
I geological survey show that for the I
period from 1901 to 1928 the average
annual run-off and discharge of the
Colorado River at Austin was 1,178,145
[acre feet. In view of the fact that
j the discharge at Columbus during the!
I dry periods has frequently been less;
1 than 100 cubic feet per second while'
at flood time it has exceeded 230,000
j cubic feet per second, it is plain to
; see that a tremendously large pro i
portion of this annual run-off oc-1
[ curs in the great floods that have;
I been destructive of life and property.
j The report of General Lytle Brown, ’
chief of engineers of the war depart-
• ment. 'Document 361 • shows that from
1900 to 1913 then* was 17 destructive
overflows in the Colorado River,
which caused the loss of 61 lives and
I damages estimated at $61,400,000 or an
average of $4,400,000 annually. These
damages are listed in detail, much of
