BRANTNER D NORTHGLENN AUG RT

Structure dossier · WDID 0202906 · OTHER · SOUTH PLATTE RIVER · DWR record

Brantner D Northglenn Aug Rt is a water structure on South Platte River in Colorado. This page is its public record: the water it has a right to, whether it may take it today, and its history, compiled from the Colorado Division of Water Resources.

Where this page's figures come from

Generated 2026-10-16 11:10 by Hydrohistorian. Sources: DWR HydroBase snapshot HydroBase_CO_20260928 (history) + CDSS REST (current), USGS NWIS cross-checks. Engine v0.5.0 (dd58e60) — every figure regenerates from this named code version and data image.

GageFlowing nowRecordHow we know
NORTHGLENN NEW BRANTNER AUG RETURN NGLNNBCO 0.0 cfs 2020–2026, 1,109 days DWR telemetry mapping

A green link is DWR's own: either its telemetry inventory maps this WDID to that station, or the station is named for this WDID (0700553 → 0700553A). An amber one is ours — the station sits within 250 m and shares a distinctive word with this structure's name, which is a strong hint rather than a DWR statement that this gage meters this structure. Wrong? Tell us.

Flowing now

0.0 cfs last reported 2026-08-13 22:00

Zero is a real reading: the gage is reporting, and it says this structure is not diverting right now.

This station has not reported in over a day, so treat the number as the last thing it said, not as now.

Provisional 15-minute telemetry from NGLNNBCO ↗ (NORTHGLENN NEW BRANTNER AUG RETURN). Raw, not the approved record — it is never merged into the diversion history below. DWR publishes the official diversion record after the water year closes and is approved, which is why that record ends months back while this reads minutes ago.

In short

In a median year over its last 8 recorded years it diverts 62 acre-feet.

Assembled from the figures on this page — every number above is checked against them before it is shown (2 checked). The detail, with its method, is in the cards below.

What is in the bundle
  • rights.csv — every decreed right, most senior first, with admin numbers, dates, amounts, uses and case numbers.
  • annual_use.csv — recorded diversion by year, with releases accounted separately.
  • curtailment_now.csv — each right's current priority status and how often it was out across analog years.
  • court_cases.csv — the cases attached to its rights.
  • co_parties.csv — the other structures that were parties to those cases. Not available anywhere else.
  • call_climatology.csv — how often each right has been out of priority by week of season, with confidence intervals and the seasons the record could actually judge.
  • README.txt — provenance, methods, limits, disclaimer, and links back to DWR's own records for verification.

Which of its rights are out of priority?

The outlook for the weeks ahead is not computable for this structure: no decreed right on file, so there is no priority to test.

Recorded use (last 10 years on record)

Years far under the decreed amount? That gap has a name — paper water vs. wet water, explained on this structure.

In a median year this structure has a recorded diversion of 62 AF. Its most recent year on record, 2025, came in at 28 AF — 45% of that, and 3rd lowest of the 8 years with a recorded volume.

This structure records both diversions and reservoir releases — they are separate water movements and are accounted separately below.
