Seepage study of the Bear River including Cutler Reservoir in Cache Valley, Utah and Idaho

A study was made during 1990 on selected reaches of the Bear River including Cutler Reservoir in Cache Valley, Utah and Idaho, to detem1ine gains or losses of flow from seepage in those reaches. The study showed a net gain of 23.5 cubic feet per second in the Riverdale, Idaho, to Smithfield, Utah, section of the Bear River. The upstream reach of this section of the river had a gain of 13.7 cubic feet per second, the middle reach had a gain of 2.1 cubic feet per second, and the downstream reach had a gain of 7.7 cubic feet per second. The Cutler Reservoir section of the Bear River (Smithfield to Wheelan, Utah) had a net gain of 79.0 cubic feet per second.
