General Setting. The Upper Clear Creek watershed covers an area of about 400 square miles in ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Clear Creek and Jefferson counties. The headwaters occur along the east side of the continental divide, where elevations reach over 14,000 feet above sea level in the Front Range of Colorado (Figure 9-1). From there, numerous streams coalesce into Clear Creek and flow generally east for about 40 miles to Golden, where Clear Creek becomes part of the South Platte Urban Watershed at an elevation of 5700 feet. Most of the watershed is composed of variably fractured crystalline basement rocks and thin soils. This geology leads to fracture-flow groundwater systems susceptible to pollution in the event of septic system failure. Large surface flows in narrow canyons can lead to flooding and issues such as sediment loading for water quality. The strongly mineralized geologic characteristics led to numerous and dispersed mining activities over the last 150 years. The resulting placer mining and waste piles exposed large amounts of bedrock and waste material to the environment causing acidification and mobilization of heavy metals into nearby streams. Recently, phosphorous loading has become an increasing concern, especially when released to downstream agencies where nutrients are already a major issue. The Clear Creek watershed is an important source area for water supplies in the Denver Region. Most of the water results from snowfall in the high country along the Continental Divide, with spring runoff providing water to several large cities along the Front Range, including Thornton, Westminster and Northglenn through storage at Standley Lake. As a result, downstream cities are keenly interested in maintaining high water quality standards in the Upper Clear Creek watershed. Most land use in the Upper Clear Creek Watershed is public, existing mainly in the National Forest system. The next largest land use is in private land related to patented mining claims. Most of these claims are inactive at this time, having been converted to residential use or gone idle. Some properties are active or recently active. Working with the local communities, DRCOG has identified six areas in the watershed that are urban and expected to grow in the future. Figure 9-3 shows these Urban Growth Boundary/Area designations, which include the incorporated communities and the new growth area around Clear Creek High School. While growth in the Upper Clear Creek Watershed is small by regional standards, the top...
