The data in this report were collected during the period 1958-64 by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers, as part of a comprehensive study of the ground-water resources of the alluvium along the Arkansas and Verdigris Rivers between Moffett and Catoosa, Oklahoma (fig. 1). The purpose of this report is to make the hydrologic data obtained during the study of ground water in the alluvium along the Verdigris River in Wagoner and Rogers Counties readily available to the public. The data in this report should be useful in predicting geologic and hydrologic conditions when drilling new wells. Table 1 gives information on the sizes, depths, yields, and other characteristics of wells in the area. The table also provides a key to the additional information for each well site given in tables 2 through 6. Table 2 gives logs for the materials penetrated at test holes and wells in the report area; table 3 gives depths to water measured in wells; table 4 includes chemical analyses of water from wells; table 5 gives laboratory determinations of particle-size distribution of earth samples collected from test holes and wells; and table 6 gives coefficients of permeability and other hydrologic properties of earth samples from the selected test holes. Similar data for Sequoyah County, LeFlore-Haskell Counties, and Muskogee County are available in other open-file reports.
An interpretive report, 'Hydrology of the alluvium of the Arkansas River, Muskogee, Oklahoma, to Fort Smith, Arkansas,' by Harry H. Tanaka and Jerrald R. Hollowell will be published as U.S. Geological Survey Water-Supply Paper 1809-T.

It includes the Mississippi Alluvial Plain and part of a dissected upland plateau. The Claiborne Group dips to the northwest at 10-25 feet per mile and ranges in altitude from 600 feet above mean sea level in the outcrop area to 900 feet below mean sea level near the embayment axis. The Claiborne Group is tentatively subdivided into five units including, in ascending order, the Meridian Sand Member of the Tallahatta Formation, the Basic City Shale Member of the Tallahatta Formation, the Sparta Sand, an unnamed clay unit, and an unnamed sand unit. The two major aquifers in the Claiborne Group are the '500-foot' sand and the unnamed sand unit. The top of the '500-foot' sand is correlated with the top of the Sparta Sand; and the base, with the base of the Claiborne Group. The '500-foot' sand ranges in thickness from 200 to 750 feet and consists mainly of very fine to coarse sand or gravel. It also contains layers of white to blue, pink, gray, or brown clay, which constitute only a small percentage of the total thickness. The unnamed sand unit ranges from 0 to 210 feet in thickness and consists mostly of white, gray, or brown fine-grained lignitic sand. An estimated 75 percent of the ground water withdrawn in western Tennessee (west of the northward-flowing segment of the Tennessee River) is taken from the '500-foot' sand and the unnamed sand unit. \r\n\r\nThe quantities of water available to wells from the '500-foot' sand are currently adequate for all municipal and industrial needs. The permeability of this aquifer is about 570 gallons per day per square foot. An estimated 155 mgd (million gallons per day) is pumped from the '500-foot' sand, about 140 mgd is discharged from the aquifer as the base flow of surface streams, and about 40 mgd is discharged from the report area as underflow. Water from the '500-foot' sand contains objectionable quantities of iron in the western half of the report area. Otherwise the quality of the water is suitable for most needs. \r\n\r\nQuantities of water adequate for domestic use and for small municipal systems can be obtained from the unnamed sand unit in most of the report area. The field permeability of this aquifer is probably about 270 gallons per day per square foot. About 8 mgd is discharged into adjacent formations, and about 2 mgd is withdrawn by pumping. Water from the unnamed sand unit contains objectionable quantities of iron in the western half of the report area. Otherwise the water from this aquifer is of good quality. \r\n\r\nGround-water supplies in both the '500-foot' sand and the unnamed sand unit will be adequate for the predicted rate of municipal growth and economic development for many years to come. If the hydraulic gradient in the '500-foot' sand were increased to 19 feet per mile, the average dip of the top of the aquifer, about 578 mgd would be transmitted downdip. Similarly, the unnamed sand unit would transmit about 34 mgd downdip \r\nunder a hydraulic gradient of 10 feet per mile. Furthermore, additional \r\namounts of water could be induced into the report area as underflow from \r\nadjacent States. \r\n\r\nThe anticipated effects of additional large scale development are (1) a drop in local and regional water levels in proportion to the increase in pumpage, (2) an increase in the net inflow of ground water from adjacent States, and (3) an increase of recharge to the aquifers at the expense of streamflow.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. G.P.O.,","doi":"10.3133/wsp1809F","usgsCitation":"Moore, G.K., 1965, Geology and hydrology of the Claiborne Group in western Tennessee: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1809, v, 44 p. :ill., maps ;24 cm., https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1809F.","productDescription":"v, 44 p. :ill., maps ;24 cm.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":137630,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":28174,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28175,"rank":401,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-2.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28176,"rank":402,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-3.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28177,"rank":403,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-4.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28178,"rank":404,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-5.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28179,"rank":405,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-6.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28180,"rank":406,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-7.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28181,"rank":407,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/plate-8.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28182,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1809f/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b32e4b07f02db6b4676","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Moore, Gerald K.","contributorId":14377,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Moore","given":"Gerald","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":145022,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":2906,"text":"wsp1791 - 1965 - Hydrologic conditions near Glendo, Platte County, Wyoming","interactions":[{"subject":{"id":52143,"text":"ofr60152 - 1960 - Hydrologic conditions in the Horseshoe Creek Valley near Glendo, Platte County, Wyoming","indexId":"ofr60152","publicationYear":"1960","noYear":false,"title":"Hydrologic conditions in the Horseshoe Creek Valley near Glendo, Platte County, Wyoming"},"predicate":"SUPERSEDED_BY","object":{"id":2906,"text":"wsp1791 - 1965 - Hydrologic conditions near Glendo, Platte County, Wyoming","indexId":"wsp1791","publicationYear":"1965","noYear":false,"title":"Hydrologic conditions near Glendo, Platte County, Wyoming"},"id":1}],"lastModifiedDate":"2012-02-02T00:05:21","indexId":"wsp1791","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1965","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":341,"text":"Water Supply Paper","code":"WSP","active":false,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"1791","title":"Hydrologic conditions near Glendo, Platte County, Wyoming","docAbstract":"The Glendo area of Platte and Carbon Counties, Wyo., about 250 square miles in extent, is in the Great Plains physiographic province. It is bordered on the west by the Laramie Range and on the east by the Hartville uplift. The North Platte River and Horseshoe and Middle Bear Creeks are the principal streams that drain the area. Gentle to steep hills, which lie between 4,450 and 6,360 feet above sea level, characterize the topography. Approximately 7,600 acres of land is cultivated in the Horseshoe Creek valley and 1,000 or more acres in the Cassa Flats of the North Platte River and Middle Bear Creek valleys. The average annual precipitation of 13.15 inches and the streamflow diverted for irrigation from Horseshoe Creek and the North Platte River are usually inadequate to sustain crops during the entire growing season. \r\n\r\nSedimentary rocks, which underlie about 99 percent of the Glendo area, range in age from Cambrian(?) to Recent and in thickness from about 3,000 to 4,700 feet. Beds of Paleozoic and Mesozoic age dip steeply away from the Laramie Range and the Hartville uplift to form a large syncline, which is interrupted by the Elkhorn anticline in the central part of the area. Beds of Tertiary and Quaternary age that were deposited over the older structural features and later were partly removed by erosion have dips of less than 6 ? . The 'Converse sand' of local usage at the top of the Hartville Formation of Mississippian(7), Pennsylvanian, and Permian age, the White River Formation of Oligocene age, and the flood-plain deposits of Recent .age are the most important aquifers in the Glendo area. \r\n\r\nThe Hartville Formation consists predominantly of hard limestone and dolomite and of lesser amounts of sandstone and shale ; its thickness ranges from 850 to 1,050 feet throughout most of the area. The 'Converse sand' is an artesian aquifer consisting of fine- to medium-grained porous sandstone having an average thickness of about 80 feet. \r\n\r\nRecharge to the Hartville Formation is mainly from seepage of surface water from Glendo Reservoir and Spring Creek; ground water is discharged from the formation to the overlying White River Formation and the alluvium in the North Platte River valley near Cassa and to four wells in the Horseshoe Creek valley. Flowing wells yielding from a few gallons per minute to 175 gpm (gallons per minute) or more from the 'Converse sand' can probably be located in an area from ? mile to 1? miles wide and about 4? miles long in the lower Horseshoe Creek valley. The depth to the 'Converse sand' in this area depends upon the topographic relief and distance from the outcrop and ranges from 250 to about 1,000 feet. The discharge induced by pumping a well in the aquifer in the 'Converse sand' would probably amount to about 2 gpm per foot of drawdown. Values of 2,000, 2,100, and 10,300 gpd (gallons per day) per ft for the coefficient of transmissibility of the 'Converse sand' were obtained from aquifer tests at three wells. \r\n\r\nThe chemical analyses of samples from the Hartville Formation ('Converse. sand' included) indicate that the water in the formation is of fairly good quality and adequate for domestic, stock, and irrigation uses, although the fluoride content is low and the water is hard. \r\n\r\nThe White River Formation is composed of as much as 575 feet of fractured siltstone and claystone, and the flood-plain deposits include up to 65 feet of silt, sand, and gravel. Precipitation is the main type of recharge to the rocks of Tertiary age. Recharge to the alluvium in the valleys of Horseshoe Creek and the North Platte River occurs mainly by seepage of ground water from. underlying beds, by infiltration of irrigation water, and by infiltration of streamflow as bank storage. Ground water is discharged naturally from the area \r\n\r\nby seepage to streams, by underflow, and by evapotranspiration and artificially by wells.

This report describes one phase of specific yield research by the U.S. Geological Survey's Hydrologic Laboratory in cooperation with the California Department of Water Resources.
An earlier phase of the research concentrated on the final distribution of moisture retained after drainage of saturated columns of porous media. This report presents the phase that concentrated on the distribution of moisture retained in similar columns after drainage for various periods of time.
Five columns, about 4 cm in diameter by 170 cm long, were packed with homogenous sand of very fine, medium, and coarse sizes, and one column was packed with alternating layers of coarse and medium sand. The very fine materials were more uniform in size range than were the medium materials. As the saturated columns drained, tensiometers installed throughout the length recorded changes in moisture tension. The relation of tension to moisture content, determined for each of the materials, was then used to convert the tension readings to moisture content. Data were then available on the distribution of retained moisture for different periods of drainage from 1 to 148 hours. Data also are presented on the final distribution of moisture content by weight and volume and on the degree of saturation.
The final zone of capillary saturation was approximately 12 cm for coarse sand, 13 cm for medium sand, and 52 cm for very fine sand. The data showed these zones were 92 to 100 percent saturated.
Most of the outflow from the columns occurred in the earlier hours of drainage--90 percent in 1 hour for the coarse materials, 50 percent for the medium, and 60 percent for the very fine. Although the largest percentage of the specific yield was reached during the early hours of drainage, this study amply demonstrates that a very long time would be required to reach drainage equilibrium.
In the layered columns the middle (medium sand) layer functioned as a hanging water column accelerating the drainage of the overlying coarse-sand layer. After the middle layer started to drain, the moisture distribution as retained in all three layers showed trends similar to that obtained when the same materials were tested in homogenous columns.

Sedimentary rocks in the area range from Pennsylvanian to Quaternary in age and from 2,000 to more than 6,000 feet in \r\nthickness. The strata were tilted to the northeast, and part of the Upper \r\nTriassic and all the Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous rocks were eroded away \r\nbefore strata of Late Cretaceous age were deposited. Basaltic lava flows and \r\ncinder cones, representing four general periods of eruption in late Miocene to \r\nQuaternary time, are widespread in the southern part of the area. \r\nPennsylvanian and Permian rocks overlie basement rocks of granite and \r\ndiorite and include the Supai Formation, the Coconino Sandstone, and the \r\nKaibab Limestone. The Supai Formation is 1,000 to 2,000 feet thick and consists of interbedded red and brown mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, limestone, \r\nand evaporites. It contains water of very poor quality outside Apache County. \r\nThe Coconino Sandstone is 200 to 250 feet thick and consists of light-gray \r\nfine- to medium-grained sandstone.

At its north edge is the Milk River valley, which is underlain by Recent alluvium of the Milk River, glacial deposits, and alluvial deposits of the preglacial Missouri River, which carved and occupied this valley before the Pleistocene Epoch. Rising gently to the south is an undulating glaciated plain broken only by three small syenite porphyry intrusions. Underlying the glacial till of the plain are Upper Cretaceous shale and sandstone of the Bearpaw and Judith River Formations. At the south end of the reservation, 40 miles from the Milk River, an intrusion of syenite porphyry in Tertiary time uplifted, tilted, and exposed the succession of sedimentary rocks overlying the Precambrian metamorphic basement. The sedimentary rocks include 1,000 feet of sandstone and shale of Cambrian age; 2,000 feet of limestone and dolomite of Ordovician, Devonian, and Mississippian age; 400 feet of shale and limestone of Jurassic age; and 3,500 feet of sandstone, siltstone, and shale of Cretaceous age. Extensive gravel terraces of Tertiary and Quaternary age bevel the upturned bedrock formations exposed around the Little Rocky Mountains. \r\n\r\nGround water under water-table conditions is obtained at present from alluvium, glaciofluvial deposits, and the Judith River Formation. The water table ranges in depth from a few feet beneath the surface in the Milk River valley alluvium to more than 100 feet deep in the Judith River Formation. Yields to wells are generally low but adequate for domestic and stock-watering use. Quality of the water ranges from highly mineralized and unusable to excellent; many wells in the Milk River valley have been abandoned because of the alkalinity of their water. Potential sources of additional ground-water supplies are the alluvial gravel of creeks issuing from the Little Rocky Mountains and some extensive areas of terrace gravel. \r\n\r\nThe uplift and tilting of the sedimentary sequence around the Little Rocky Mountains and the minor intrusions in the central plain have created artesian conditions within aquifers. Wells obtain artesian water from sandstone aquifers in the Judith River, Eagle, and Kootenai Formations.

Pumping for irrigation temporarily lowers water levels in the vicinity of the wells but has not lowered regional water levels. Pumpage has probably intercepted and utilized some of the recharge that would have been rapidly discharged from the aquifer. Ground water is continuously being discharged to streams and to the atmosphere by evapotranspiration, but intermittent recharge from precipitation replaces the discharged water. Recharge and discharge are in approximate balance, maintaining about the same amount of ground water in storage. Further recharge to the aquifer is rapidly discharged to streams. The sandstones, till, and glaciolacustrine deposits in Waushara County generally yield small to moderate amounts of water to wells but do not produce enough water for irrigation ; recent alluvium may yield large quantities of water to wells. In general, the ground water is of good quality, except for hardness and local high-iron concentrations.

Although the initial rate of withdrawal from the well field will be about 8 mgd (million gallons per day), the ultimate design capacity of the field is 20 mgd. A study of sand samples, drillers' logs, and geophysical logs collected during preliminary test drilling at the site for the Lichterman well field was used as a basis for defining three zones of sand favorable for the construction of high-capacity (1,000 gallons per minute or more) water wells. The three zones occur in the '500-foot' sand and are here designated (in descending order) as zone A, zone B, and zone C. The depth to the top of these zones below land surface has the following ranges: zone A, 125 to 225 feet; zone B, 200 to 350 feet; and zone C, 700 to 775 feet. Zones A and B range from 0 to 100 feet in thickness, and zone C ranges from 10 to 100 feet in thickness. Within the well field proper these zones are expected to react to the stress of pumping as separate hydrologic units, but outside the well field the three zones are expected to react as a single hydrologic unit. \r\n\r\nThe '500-foot' sand in the Germantown-Collierville area is recharged chiefly by precipitation on the outcrop area of the sand to the east, but the evidence indicates that additional recharge is entering the aquifer from the Wolf River. In spite of this additional recharge, water levels in the '500-foot' sand are declining at an average rate of about two-thirds of a foot per year, owing to municipal and industrial pumpage in the Memphis area. However, this decline is not expected to alter the excellent quality of the water in the '500-foot' sand at the site of the Lichterman well field. \r\n\r\nPumping in the Lichterman well field will create a cone of depression in the free-water (piezometric) surface of the '500-foot' sand. The decline in water levels will be directly proportional to the rate of pumping and inversely proportional to the distance from the well field. The resultant changes in hydraulic gradients will alter the direction of ground-water movement in the vicinity of the well field and increase the rate of movement toward the well field from areas of recharge. The lowering of water levels might also accelerate locally the changeover from artesian conditions to semiartesian or water-table conditions in the '500-foot' sand. \r\n\r\nWithin the well field proper, water levels are expected to fluctuate as individual wells are turned on and off to accommodate the demand for water. The presence of clay beds in the aquifer will tend to limit the specific capacity of individual production wells, but could serve to limit interference between wells if adjacent wells are screened in different sections of the aquifer. Interference between wells might also be lessened by pumping those wells having the highest specific capacities for the longest periods of time.","language":"ENGLISH","doi":"10.3133/wsp1819B","usgsCitation":"Nyman, D.J., 1965, Predicted hydrologic effects of pumping from the Lichterman Well Field in the Memphis Area, Tennessee: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1819, 26 p. , https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1819B.","productDescription":"26 p.

Curves are defined that show the relation between the drainage area and the mean annual flood in eight hydrologic areas, and composite frequency curves define the relation of a flood of any recurrence interval from 1.1 to 50 years to the mean annual flood.
These two relations are based upon gaging-station records having 10 or more years of record not materially affected by storage or diversion, and the results obtainable from them will represent the magnitude and frequency of natural floods within the range and recurrence intervals defined by the base data.
The report also contains a compilation of flood records at all sites in the area at which records have been collected for 5 or more consecutive years. As far as was possible at each location for which discharge has been determined, the tabulations include all floods above a selected base. Where only gage heights have been obtained or where the data did not warrant computation of peach discharges above a selected base, only annual peaks are shown.
The maximum known flood discharges for the streamflow stations and miscellaneous points except Ohio River main stem stations, together with areal floods of 10- and 50-year recurrence intervals, are plotted against the size of drainage area for each flood region and hydrologic area to provide a convenient means of judging the frequency of the maximum known floods that have been recorded for these points.

The major radionuclides released are ruthenium-106, cesium-137, cobalt-60, and strontium-90. Hydrologic and biologic studies have indicated that the radiation doses in the river are well below maximum acceptable levels. Radionuclide concentrations in river water have been measured at seven sampling stations on the Clinch and Tennessee Rivers. Mass-balance calculations for 44 weeks of sampling indicate that losses of radionuclides from the water phase to the river-bottom sediments represent only a very small part of the total radioactivity released to the river. \r\n\r\nA study of the Clinch River bottom-sediment cores collected in 1962 has disclosed a recurring pattern of variation in radioactivity with depth which may reflect past events in waste-disposal operations at the laboratory. Current investigations are expected to provide information about the chemical forms in which the major radionuclides exist and the mechanisms by which they were incorporated in the sediments.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Dept. of the Interior, Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/cir497","usgsCitation":"Pickering, R., Carrigan, P., and Parker, F., 1965, The Clinch River study--An investigation of the fate of radionuclides released to a surface stream: U.S. Geological Survey Circular 497, iv, 12 p. :ill., graphs, map ;26 cm., https://doi.org/10.3133/cir497.","productDescription":"iv, 12 p. :ill., graphs, map ;26 cm.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":138411,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/circ/1965/0497/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":30577,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/circ/1965/0497/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4acee4b07f02db67f51e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pickering, R.J.","contributorId":103253,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pickering","given":"R.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":147157,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Carrigan, P.H.","contributorId":85160,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carrigan","given":"P.H.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":147156,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Parker, F.L.","contributorId":79455,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Parker","given":"F.L.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":147155,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}} ,{"id":3039,"text":"wsp1787 - 1965 - Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah","interactions":[{"subject":{"id":52149,"text":"ofr60161 - 1960 - Ground-water areas and well logs, Central Sevier Valley, Utah","indexId":"ofr60161","publicationYear":"1960","noYear":false,"title":"Ground-water areas and well logs, Central Sevier Valley, Utah"},"predicate":"SUPERSEDED_BY","object":{"id":3039,"text":"wsp1787 - 1965 - Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah","indexId":"wsp1787","publicationYear":"1965","noYear":false,"title":"Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah"},"id":1},{"subject":{"id":52226,"text":"ofr6226 - 1962 - Records of selected wells and springs, chemical analyses of ground water, water-level measurements of selected wells, selected drillers' logs of wells, and logs of test holes, Central Sevier Valley, Sanpete, Sevier, and Piute Counties, Utah","indexId":"ofr6226","publicationYear":"1962","noYear":false,"title":"Records of selected wells and springs, chemical analyses of ground water, water-level measurements of selected wells, selected drillers' logs of wells, and logs of test holes, Central Sevier Valley, Sanpete, Sevier, and Piute Counties, Utah"},"predicate":"SUPERSEDED_BY","object":{"id":3039,"text":"wsp1787 - 1965 - Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah","indexId":"wsp1787","publicationYear":"1965","noYear":false,"title":"Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah"},"id":2},{"subject":{"id":52308,"text":"ofr6314 - 1963 - Records of selected wells and springs, chemical analyses of ground water, water-level measurements of selected wells, selected drillers' logs of wells, and logs of test holes, Central Sevier Valley, Sanpete, Sevier, and Piute Counties, Utah","indexId":"ofr6314","publicationYear":"1963","noYear":false,"title":"Records of selected wells and springs, chemical analyses of ground water, water-level measurements of selected wells, selected drillers' logs of wells, and logs of test holes, Central Sevier Valley, Sanpete, Sevier, and Piute Counties, Utah"},"predicate":"SUPERSEDED_BY","object":{"id":3039,"text":"wsp1787 - 1965 - Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah","indexId":"wsp1787","publicationYear":"1965","noYear":false,"title":"Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah"},"id":3}],"lastModifiedDate":"2017-09-06T16:06:56","indexId":"wsp1787","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1965","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":341,"text":"Water Supply Paper","code":"WSP","active":false,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"1787","title":"Ground-water conditions and storage in the Central Sevier Valley, Utah","docAbstract":"The central Sevier Valley, in the central part of Utah, extends from the town of Kingston to the Yuba Dam and from the Tushar and Valley Mountains and the Pavant Range to the Sevier, Fishlake, Wasatch, and Gunnison Plateaus. A geologic and hydrologic investigation of the valley was made to determine the relation between surface water and ground water and to determine if ground water can be used for irrigation supplies without affecting existing water uses. During the investigation, data were collected for about 700 wells and 26 springs. Monthly water-level measurements were made at 93 observation wells, and automatic recording gages were maintained at 6 additional wells. Chemical analyses were made of water collected from 68 wells and springs. Test holes were drilled at 21 sites to determine the thickness and hydrologic properties of the waterbearing materials. Consumption of ground water by vegetation was estimated on the basis of area and applied rates of evapotranspiration.
