Cheryl Eddy Miller

Cheryl has been with the USGS since 1989. She is a Hydrologist and is the Unit Chief for the Cheyenne Support Unit of the Studies Section.

Cheryl started her career studying pesticides and other water-quality issues in Wyoming's groundwater and surface water. Other work has involved evaluating groundwater/surface-water interaction, and how that interaction influences water quality and biological processes. 

Recently, Cheryl has been able to combine her understanding of many facets of hydrology and has had increased focus on using multi-disciplinary approaches to answer hydrologic questions. In particular, she enjoys using analytical techniques or available data in non-traditional ways to collaborate with other scientists.

Cheryl is also the WY-MT Water Science Center Communications Specialist.

Water resources of Fremont County, Wyoming

Average annual runoff (inches per year) ranged from 0.90 to 22 in the Mountainous Region of Fremont County and from 0.06 to 0.72 in the Plains Region. The Wind River Formation of Tertiary age has the most well development. Quaternary alluvium and colluvium is the second-most developed. Some wells and springs discharge more than 300 gallons per minute from older selected geologic units. Geologic un
