Ground-water conditions and geologic reconnaissance of the Upper Sevier River basin, Utah Ground-water conditions and geologic reconnaissance of the Upper Sevier River basin, Utah
The upper Sevier River basin is in south-central Utah and includes an area of about 2,400 .square miles of high plateaus and valleys. It comprises the entire Sevier River drainage basin above Kingston, including the East Fork Sevier River and its tributaries. The basin was investigated to determine general ground-water conditions, the interrelation of ground water and surface water, the...
