Abstract
A reconnaissance survey of multipurpose water development possibilities in the Price River Basin is described that included the study of the possible need for water storage in potential reservoirs for flow regulation to insure downstream water quality. It was found that total water demands for municipal, industrial, irrigation, and water quality control purposes on a single-use basis already exceed presently available supplies during low flow years and projected total water demands may exceed the potential supply. It is recommended that surface waters should be stored to deal with probable economic growth demands, and determination of the value of water in the upper reaches of the Price River, above Price, Utah, for municipal supply and other purposes be made.
