VI. Instream Flow Evaluation Predicted stream flows at certain points of interest were evaluated. The purpose of examining instream flows is to evaluate potential impacts on aquatic ecosystems - including fish and other aquatic organisms - that could be caused by changes in flows resulting from reservoir operations or water supply withdrawals. The following table shows the nodes of interest that were identified through discussions with the NC Wildlife Resources Commission. NCWRC also expressed interest in assessing instream flows on Rockfish Creek, Upper Little River and Rocky River, but because of the way the system is modeled, this was not possible. Table: Nodes of Interest for Instream Flow River Location / Section Node Deep River Middle portion 280 Haw River Middle portion 360 Haw River Lower portion 410 Cape Fear River Lillington 550 Deep River Lower portion 640 Little River Lower portion 720 Cape Fear River Lock and Dam #3 780 Cape Fear River Lock and Dam #2 790 Cape Fear River Lock and Dam #1 820 The following map shows the geographic locations of the points of interest. Analysis of Instream Flows An adaptation of the Tennant Method1 for evaluating instream flows was used for evaluating the modeled instream flows. Under this method, daily stream flows are compared to the historical average annual flow at the point of interest. The historical average annual flow was determined using the model under the unimpaired scenario. Depending on the percentage of annual flow, the Tennant Method provides guidelines for evaluating the adequacy of the flow for the given time of the year. Table 2 summarizes these guidelines. 1 Instream Flows for Riverine Resource Stewardship: 2004 Revised Edition, Multiple Authors . Table 2: Modified Tennant Method Guidelines for Evaluating Instream Flows The Tennant method is used as a preliminary screening device to see how projected increases in water use will affect stream flows at selected locations. When new or increased water withdrawals are planned, the permitting process will require site-specific instream flow studies to determine required instream flow levels. The following plots show an example of a summary of stream flow levels using the Tennant Method for one of the points of interests identified in Table 1. Daily stream flows at all points of interest were estimated using the model for the entire 75-year record. Then, the percentage of days over the 75-year period within each of the various stream flow ranges was calculated. The complete summary of results at all points of interest will be made available on the Division of Water Resources website under Cape Fear River Basin Planning.
