Low-Flow Characteristics and Mean Annual Discharge of North Branch Manitowoc River at Potter, Wisconsin
B. K. Holmstrom
1976, Open-File Report 76-204
The low-flow characteristics presented in this report are the annual minimum 7-day mean flows at the 2-year recurrence interval and 10-year recurrence interval. They were determined just downstream from the confluence of the three streams forming the North Branch Manitowoc River and, based on natural-flow conditions, are 0.0 cubic foot...

Changes in the water supply in the Upper Republican Natural Resources District, Southwest Nebraska, from 1952-75
E.G. Lappala
1976, Open-File Report 76-498
Use of ground water for irrigation has increased rapidly in the Upper Republican Natural Resources District in southwestern Nebraska in recent years. The principal aquifer being developed is composed of saturated and gravel of the Ogallala Formation of Tertiary age. Water-level declines of as much as 16 feet (4.9 meters)...

Determination of channel capacity of the Sacramento River between Ordbend and Glenn, Butte and Glenn counties, California
R.G. Simpson
1976, Open-File Report 76-526
The adequacy of an 8.5-mi reach of the Sacramento River to carry flood flows is evaluated. The reach studied is in Butte and Glenn Counties, California, and extends northward from the present east-bank Sacramento River Flood Control Project levee near Glenn upstream to the Ord Ferry gaging station near Ordbend....
Geohydrology of the Anza-Terwilliger area, Riverside County, California
W. R. Moyle Jr.
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-10
The Anza-Terwilliger area consists of about 96 square miles (24-9 square kilometres) in the upper parts of the Santa Margarita River and Coyote Creek drainage basins in Riverside County, Calif., about 90 miles (145 kilometres) southeast of Los Angeles.

Outline of the water resources of the Status Creek basin, Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington
Dee Molenaar
1976, Open-File Report 76-808
On the Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington, only about 5 percent of the Satus Creek basin--in the relatively flat eastern lowland adjacent to and including part of the Yakima River lowland--is agriculturally developed, mostly through irrigation. Because the basin 's streams do not contain adequate water for irrigation, most irrigation is...

Statistical analysis of water-level, springflow, and streamflow data for the Edwards Aquifer in south-central Texas
Celso Puente
1976, Open-File Report 76-393
Water-level, springflow, and streamflow data were used to develop simple and multiple linear-regression equations for use in estimating water levels in wells and the flow of three major springs in the Edwards aquifer in the eastern San Antonio area. The equations provide daily, monthly, and annual estimates that compare very...

Recycling ground water in Waushara County, Wisconsin : resource management for cold-water fish hatcheries
R.P. Novitzki
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-20
Recycling water within the local ground-water system can increase the quantity of water available for use, control or avoid environmental pollution, and control temperature of the water supply. Pumped ground water supplied a fish-rearing facility for 15 months, and the waste water recharged the local ground-water system through an infiltration...

Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources – California region
H. E. Thomas, D. A. Phoenix
1976, Professional Paper 813-E
Most people in the California Region live in a semiarid or arid climate, with precipitation less than the potential evapotranspiration- environments of perennial water deficiency. The deficiency becomes most onerous during the characteristically rainless summers and during recurrent droughts that may continue for 10--20 years. However, water from winter rain...
