Water-resources studies in Utah, July 1, 1981 to June 30, 1982 Water-resources studies in Utah, July 1, 1981 to June 30, 1982
This report summarizes the progress on water-resources studies in Utah by the U.S. Geological Survey during the period July 1, 1981, to June 30, 1982. Much of the work was done in cooperation with the State of Utah or local agencies. Additional supporting funds were transferred from other Federal agencies or appropriated directly to the Geological Survey.
Utah water use data: Public water supplies, 1980 Utah water use data: Public water supplies, 1980
This publication is the third in a series of continuing reports presenting water use data for Utah. The data are collected by the State of Utah, Division of Water Rights, for the National Water Use Information Program. This is a cooperative effort with the U.S. Geological Survey. Most states contribute information in some form to the program.

Seepage study of the Sevier River and the Central Utah, McIntyre, and Leamington Canals, Juab and Millard Counties, Utah Seepage study of the Sevier River and the Central Utah, McIntyre, and Leamington Canals, Juab and Millard Counties, Utah
A study of the gains or losses of the Sevier River and the Central Utah, McIntyre, and Leamington Canals in the Leamington area, in Juab and Millard Counties, Utah, was made to determine changes in those reaches. Three to seven sets of seepage measurements made during 1980 were used in the analysis. Adjustments for fluctuations in flow were made from information obtained from water-stage...

Test drilling for fresh water in Tooele Valley, Utah Test drilling for fresh water in Tooele Valley, Utah
A test-drilling program in Tooele Valley, Utah, was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Division of Water Rights. The basic data and interpretation of each test hole are included in this report. Results obtained from the test drilling were used in a comprehensive ground-water investigation of the valley fill (Razem and...

Hydrologic reconnaissance of the southern Great Salt Lake Desert and summary of the hydrology of west-central Utah Hydrologic reconnaissance of the southern Great Salt Lake Desert and summary of the hydrology of west-central Utah
This report is the last of 19 hydrologic reconnaissances of the basins in western Utah. The purposes of this series of studies are (1) to analyze available hydrologic data and describe the hydrologic system, (2) to evaluate existing and potential water-resources development, and (3) to identify additional studies that might be needed. Part 1 of this report gives an estimate of recharge...
