Floods of February 1962 in southern Idaho and northeastern Nevada
Cecil Albert Thomas, Robert D. Lamke
1962, Circular 467
The floods of February 10-15, 1969., were the highest known on many streams in southern Idaho and northeastern Nevada. Some of the peak discharges have recurrence intervals greater than a hundred years. The floods resulted from an unusual combination of conditions, each of which contributed to the sudden severe flooding....
Effect of reservoir storage on peak flow
William D. Mitchell
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-C
For observation of small-basin flood peaks, numerous crest-stage gages now are operated at culverts in roadway embankments. To the extent that they obstruct the natural flood plains of the streams, these embankments serve to create detention reservoirs, and thus to reduce the magnitude of observed peak flows. Hence, it is...
Ground-water reconnaissance in Round Valley, Custer County, Idaho
E. G. Crosthwaite
1962, Open-File Report 62-33
Round Valley in central Idaho contains alluvial deposits of Pleistocene and Recent age which yield adequate supplies of ground water for stock and domestic wells. The alluvial deposits are underlain by Challis Volcanics of Oligocene or Early Miocene age and a few wells obtain domestic and stock water from the...
Water-supply possibilities at Capitol Reef National Monument, Utah
I. Wendell Marine
1962, Water Supply Paper 1475-G
A water supply of 50 gpm (gallons per minute) is estimated to be sufficient to supply the present and future water demand at the monument. The Coconino sandstone of Permian age seems to be capable of yielding this quantity to a well between 1,500 and 2,700 feet deep in the...
Evolution of methods for evaluating the occurrence of floods
M. A. Benson
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-A
A brief summary is given of the history of methods of expressing flood potentialities, proceeding from simple flood formulas to statistical methods of flood-frequency analysis on a regional basis. Current techniques are described and evaluated. Long-term flood records in the United States show no justification for the adoption of a...
Asbestos in the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii
A.H. Chidester, A. F. Shride
1962, Mineral Investigations Resource Map 17
The asbestos deposits in the United States (exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii) are shown on the accompanying map. The principal mineralogic types of asbestos (chrysotile and amphibole) are indicated by the shape of symbols, and the relative importance of the deposit is indicated by the size of symbols. The text...
Gold in the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii
Albert Herbert Koschmann, M.H. Bergendahl
1962, Mineral Investigations Resource Map 24
The accompanying map shows the distribution of the principal gold mining districts in the United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii). Only those districts that have produced 10,000 ounces of gold or more are shown. Gold ore reserves were not considered, and the types of deposits are not shown. Based on...
