RE: CROM4 AND EVRM4
OUR SERVICE HYDROLOGIST SAID THESE BEING SET TO MISSING IS FINE FOR 
NOW. 
CROM4 IS LIKELY REPORTING PCPN WHEN NO PRECIPITATION IS OCCURRING 
DUE TO IT NOT BEING A HEATED GAGE AND SNOW MELTING IN IT WHEN THE 
AIR IS ABOVE FREEZING. THIS SHOULD BE FIXED AFTER THE SNOW MELTS 
ENTIRELY.
THE PLUG WILL BE PULLED ON EVRM4 IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS...SO 
THIS WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM.
THANK YOU.
