Show Union to hold Harvest Ball BLM covers system of rain gauges The I'ninn High School Harvest throughout gauges precipitation northeastern Utah. In a semi-arirrgion such as the Uintah Basin, rain and snowfall are very important to the many uses made of public lands. Based upon precipitation guage readings range plant drought growth ran be predicted, conditions anticipated and spring runoff from melting snow forecast. Each gauge is emptied of water in October and recharged with a mixture of oil and antifreeze to prevent evaporation and freezing. It is weighed at that time and again at periodic intervals throughout the year with a special scale that reads directly in inches of moisture received. These measurements are compared with readings and conditions from previous years to predict any problems that might be developing. Occasionally a guage is tipped over or shot full of holes. Vandalism is very costly and each time it occurs an entire years record is lost. Therefore, Dave Moore, BL Watershed Specialist, asks that anyone finding one of these instruments leave it undisturbed because it is playing an important part in the management of our national resource Is pH.
