| Abstract |
Reservoir storage for water quality control releases is not justified. There are several municipalities in the study area that would benefit from developing a new source of water supply of a better quality. Groundwater which presently supplies all municipal systems in the area is variable in quality and in some cases, is not suitable for municipal and industrial uses. Heavy pumpage of groundwater for irrigation has lowered groundwater table in local areas and mining is occurring. If this continues at the present rate and is not regulated the mining will become widespread and result in depletion of groundwater resources. The 'Horse Thief Canyon Reservoir Project' could satisfy a portion of water supply demands for communities benefiting from developing new water supplies of better quality. Limited groundwater data presently available and uncertainty regarding the future mining of groundwater resources, make it impossible to determine the most economical source of future municipal and industrial water supply need. |
