Problem situations encountered and possible approaches for addressing them.
     ◾ Apparently incorrect results, including the factors that suggest the method was inaccurate.
     ◾ Indicators that were particularly useful or not useful in identifying flow duration in different hydrological environments.
     ◾ Regional differences in the applicability of specific indicators.
     ◾ Potential uses of the method in the regulatory context, or in other watershed planning or management contexts.
