Item Information

snippet: This dataset was created by IDWR GIS staff in December 2023 at the request of the Technical Services Bureau Chief. It represents the watersheds that contribute to the water resources of the Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer (ESPA). It is derived from the 6-digit HU (Basin), 8-digit HU (Subbasin), and 10-digit HU (Watershed) datasets of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), accessed on December 20, 2023. https://hydrowfs.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/wbd/MapServer

Export the selection to a new feature class (25 records).</span></p><p><span> 2. Select the Big Cottonwood Creek (HUC10-1704021202) watershed.

Use the Erase GP tool to cut out the ESPA model boundary from the HUC8 watersheds selection feature class.</span></p><p><span> 5. Use the Multipart to Singlepart GP tool on the feature class created in Step 4.</span></p><p><span> 6. Use the Append GP tool to append the ESPA model boundary to the feature class created in Step 5.

Use the Modify Features: Merge Features editing tool to merge certain features as documented above.</span></p><p><span> 9.
