North Platte river generally carries
considerable volume of water. while
the South Platte is dry except during
times of floods, because its water is
used for irrigation farther upstream.
The North Platte is $50 miles long and
drains about $500 square miles. At
the city Of North Platte the river has
a maximum discharge according to the
United States geological survey of
about 10000 cubic feet a second and
n minimum discharge of only 20 cubic
feet a second. It's average volume OF
flow during the nine months from
March to November is about $500 Gu
bic feet second.
