Abstract
This study of the geohydrology of Tooele Valley, Utah, was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer during the period 1958-63. The purpose of the study was to update an earlier investigation of ground water in Tooele Valley made by the Geological Survey during 1940-42 (Thomas, 1946). The construction of approximately 256 wells in the valley since 1940, many of which are large-diameter pumped wells drilled since 1950, made available new data on water levels, well discharge, and chemical quality for interpretation of ground-water conditions. New data also were available on spring discharge, streamflow, aquifer characteristics, and geologic, geophysical, and climatic conditions. The earlier report by Thomas (1946) was freely used during the preparation of this report.
