Book excerpt: Groundwater and surface water supplies in the Williston and Powder River structural basins are necessary for future development in these regions. To help determine if these water supplies will be sustainable during projected development, the interaction of surface water and groundwater was examined. This study will help quantify these interactions in both basins. The objectives of this thesis were to estimate base flow as groundwater discharge to streams, identify and quantify gaining and sinking reaches of streams, and quantify reservoir interaction in the Williston and Powder River structural basins. The analysis used the base-flow software program, PART, along with 525 stream gauge records. The base-flow estimates were used to determine if stream reaches gained water from the underlying aquifer, or lost water thereby recharging the underlying aquifer. A water budget was completed for the three Missouri River mainstem reservoirs. The final estimate of gain from the underlying aquifers was 9230 [ft3/s], while the loss to underlying aquifers was 7790 [ft3/s]. Both the Powder River and Williston basins contain gaining and sinking streams. The glacial aquifer system in the Williston basin primarily discharges into streams. The Upper Fort Union aquifer primarily discharges into overlying streams, whereas results pertaining to the rest of the bedrock hydrogeologic units were less conclusive as to whether they discharge into or receive recharge from streams. The values for the reservoir budget were inconclusive because they were within the range of error for the data. The estimates provide a starting point for understanding these interactions. Additional field data are needed for calibration of modeling efforts. As energy production increases in the Williston and Powder River structural basins, the use and demand for groundwater and surface water will increase, along with emphasizing the importance of accurately quantifying these interactions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This project was initiated in July 1976, to determine what effects the surface mining of coal would have on the regional shallow groundwater systems in a semiarid western region. The Powder River Structural Basin of Montana and Wyoming was chosen as the study area for the project since it typifies the western semiarid climate, and large scale surface coal mining operations are present in the area. Also, these mining operations are expected to increase dramatically in the future in Powder River Basin"--Page I-1.
