Mr. Will Fay, I read with interest of your abilities to calculate a drainage area and flow duration curve from your electronic set of USGS maps. I was wondering if you might be able to do that for me. My dam site is about 3000 ft upstream/south of where Brackett Brook crosses RT 25A in Orford NH(thats 10 miles east of the intersection of RT 10 and RT 25A or about half way to Wentworth NH). Its a small drainage area probably about 2 square miles. Thanks in advance.........Mark D
