Seepage study of the Sevier Valley-Piute Canal, Sevier County, Utah
A study of the gains or losses of the Sevier Valley-Piute Canal from near Joseph to near Aurora, Sevier County, Utah, was made to aid in water allocation for the canal system. Four sets of seepage measurements were made in 1976, with the three most representative being used in the analysis. Adjustments for fluctuations in flow in the canals were made from information obtained from water-stage reco

Hydrologic evaluation of the upper Duchesne River Valley, northern Uinta Basin area, Utah
The upper Duchesne River valley was studied during 1971-74 as part of an investigation of the northern Uinta Basin area, Utah and Colorado. The purpose of the study was to determine the relation of ground water to surface water, to estimate the quantity of ground water that moves to the Duchesne River, and to assess the probable effect of increased ground-water withdrawal on streamflow.

Hydrologic evaluation of Ashley Valley, northern Uinta basin area, Utah
The water resources of the northern Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado, were studied during 1971-74. Ashley Valley was evaluated in slightly greater detail than the general area, in order to assess the general relation of ground- and surface-water supplies.
In Ashley Valley , the principal source of both irrigation supply
and ground-water recharge is the flow from Ashley Creek canyon .
Ground-water r

Hydrologic reconnaissance of the Tule Valley drainage basin, Juab and Millard Counties, Utah
The Tule Valley drainage basin is an area of about 940 square miles in Juab and Millard Counties in west-central Utah. Precipitation in the basin averages about 8 inches annually. There is no surface outflow and all streams are ephemeral. Annual runoff averages about 0.09 inch. Because there is no sustained runoff, and flow is local and infrequent, reservoirs do not provide dependable water suppli

Reconnaissance of water quality in the Duchesne River basin and some adjacent drainage areas, Utah
A water-quality reconnaissance in the Duchesne River basin and some adjacent drainage areas, Utah, covered an area of about 4,400 square miles (11,400 square kilometres)--about 4,000 square miles (10,360 square kilometres) in the Duchesne River basin and the remainder in the drainage areas of Pariette Draw and Pelican Lake. Data were obtained by the U.S. Geological Survey one or more times at 108
