Hydrologic Monitoring In The Coal Fields Of Central Utah, August 1978-September 1979, United States Geological Survey Jan 1981

Hydrologic Monitoring In The Coal Fields Of Central Utah, August 1978-September 1979, United States Geological Survey

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

Surface-water quantity and quality were observed at 12 gaging stations downstream from mined and lease areas in the Wasatch Plateau, Book Cliffs, and Emery coal fields in central Utah. Measurements of base flow were made at 52 additional sites in the region. The report describes the hydrologic setting of this important coal region and summarizes the surface-water data collected at the monitoring sites from August 1978 through September 1979. Coal mining and lease activities in each of the monitored basins also are described.


Newly Identified Intertonguing Between The Star Point Sandstone And The Blackhawk Formation And The Correlation Of Coal Beds In The Northern Part Of The Wasatch Plateau, United States Geological Survey Jan 1981

Newly Identified Intertonguing Between The Star Point Sandstone And The Blackhawk Formation And The Correlation Of Coal Beds In The Northern Part Of The Wasatch Plateau, United States Geological Survey

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

On the basis of fieldwork and drilling completed in the Fall of 1980, several zones of intertonguing between the Star Point Sandstone and the overlying Blackhawk Formation have been identified in the northern part of the Wasatch Plateau, Carbon County, Utah (sheet 1). As a result of this work, correlations of important coal beds have been revised. The U.S. Geological Survey drilled a total of 12 holes in the area, from the west side of Pleasant Valley, near Slaughterhouse Canyon, to the eastern part of the Beaver Creek drainage (sheet 1) (Blanchard and others, 1976; U.S. Geological Survey, 1980).

Geologic Map And Coal Sections Of The Red Point Quadrangle, Emery County, Utah, United States Geological Survey

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

Red Point quadrangle, in Emery County in central Utah, was mapped in 1979 as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's program to evaluate land in the public domain for potential coal leasing.


Geological Map And Coal Sections Of The Mahogany Point Quadrangle, Emery County, Utah, United States Geological Survey Jan 1981

Geological Map And Coal Sections Of The Mahogany Point Quadrangle, Emery County, Utah, United States Geological Survey

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

The Mahogany Point quadrangle, in Emery County in central Utah, was mapped in 1978-79 as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's program to evaluate land in the public domain for potential coal leasing. Mapping was done using U.S. Forest Service color aerial photographs at a scale of 1:15, 840 on U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps at a scale of 1:24,000. The quadrangle was mapped previously by Spieker (1931) at a scale fo 1:62,500.

Geologic Map And Coal Sections Of The Cap Quadrangle, Emery County, Utah, United States Geological Survey

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

The Cap quadrangle, in Emery County in central Utah, was mapped in 1977-79 as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's program to evaluate lands in the public domain for potential coal leasing.
