Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Resources of the State of New York, Vol. 1: Part I Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a manuscript entitled Water Resources of the State of New York, prepared by Mr. George W.Rafter, and to recommend that it be published in the series of pamphlets upon Water Supply and Irrigation. The data herewith presented were brought together by Mr. Rafter during 1897 and transmitted early in February, 1898. Publication has been somewhat delayed by various obstacles which could not be readily overcome. The data are, however, of general interest and value, not only to the people of New York State, but also to engineers and persons in all parts of the country interested in the development and utilization of the water resources. Particular attention is given to the discussion of floods and low-water flow, these being to a large extent the determining factors in considerations of the utilization of water power.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winnebago County Surface Water Resources The higher standard of living enjoyed today by Illinois citizens has resulted in an increased amount of leisure time to pursue outdoor recreation. There has been an increased interest in boating, sailing, canoeing, water-skiing, fishing, skin diving, and other water associated sports. Demands by industry, agriculture and urban expansion have also placed heavy burdens on surface waters. It is time to take stock of our existing and potential resources and problems to plan for the future. A county water resource report, such as this one, is an attempt by the Division of Fisheries of the Illinois Department of Conservation to summarize data on the more important existing water resources and their recreational value. With this data available, a method to apportion usage of water in the best interest of the public can be determined together with the potential needs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land and Water Use in Trinity River Hydrographic Unit, Vol. 1: Text The Department of Hater Resources was directed to conduct the nec essary investigations to compile this information. For purposes of these studies, the major drainage areas oi the State were delineated. Division of these drainage areas into subareas, designated hydrographic units, was then made. The hydrographic units, which generally comprise watersheds of indi vidual rivers, serve as the basic unit for collection and report ing of data. The investigation is being conducted in two phases (1) collection and publication of data on land and water use, and (2) determination and reporting of water resources and future eter requirements. Collection and processing of basic data for both phases, by hydrographic units, is underway in much of the State.

Download or read book Survey of Mountainous Areas written by R. G. Eiland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-25 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Survey of Mountainous Areas: December, 1955 Almost one-fourth of the surface water resources of California originates within the central Sierra Nevada region - the area under investigation in this bulletin. Although the water resources of the area far exceed its own ultimate water requirements, these resources have not been generally developed for use within the region itself except in some small local areas. The large water supply projects which exist on most of the major streams have been developed for the irrigation of agricultural areas on the Central Valley floor, for municipal and industrial use in the metropolitan areas of the San Francisco Bay region, and for the generation of a substantial portion of the hydroelectric energy produced in California. The rapid increase in population in the State since World War II has resulted in increasing demands for the construction of new conservation projects on Sierra Nevada streams, primarily to satisfy increasing needs for water outside the mountainous areas where the water originates. Some of these projects have already reached construction stages. Partly as a result of these increasing drafts on the water supply by outside agencies, and partly as a result of the accelerated growth which the mountain and foothill areas themselves have experienced since World War II, the people of the region have shown mounting concern regarding the disposition of the local water resources. Their own demands for water are rising, and they consider the possibility that continued appropriation of water for use in outside areas may jeopardize their own future development. Their concern is evidenced by the formation in recent years of a number of new public water supply agencies, by the filing of numerous applications to appropriate water for present and future needs, and by general opposition to new applications to appro priate water filed by agencies serving areas outside the region.

These bulletins are an essential source of data for the subsequent water requirements studies, and when complete, will provide detailed data for the entire State.
