Environmental Assessment Seminoe-Kortes Transmission Line/Substation Consolidation Project, Carbon County, Wyoming, U.S. Department Of Energy

Environmental Assessments (WY)

The existing switchyards at Western Area Power Administration's (WESTERN) Seminoe and Kortes facilities, located approximately 40 miles northeast of Rawlins, Carbon County, Wyoming, were constructed in 1939 and 1951, respectively. The circuit breakers at these facilities are beyond or approaching their service life and need to be replaced. In addition, the switchyards have poor access for maintenance and replacement of equipment, and their locations create potential for oil spills into the North Platte River. WESTERN is proposing to consolidate the switchyard facilities into one new substation to provide easier access, restore proper levels of system reliability, and decrease the potential …

Dolores Project Colorado, Final Supplement To The Final Environmental Statement, United States Department Of The Interior

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

This Final Supplement to the Final Environmental Statement (FES) to the Dolores Project describes project modifications since completion of the 1977 Final Environmental Statement on May 9, 1977, (FES 77-12) and a Finding of No Significant Impact approved May 11, 1981, for the addition of two hydroelectric powerplants to the project. The project modifications include adding salinity control and changing the alignment of the Towaoc Canal from west of Cortez, Colorado, to the east of the city. In addition, refinements would be made to the project plan by deleting Monument Creek Reservoir and the Cortez-Towaoc Municipal and Industrial Pipeline from …

Gigahertz Scintillations And Spaced Receiver Drift Measurements During Project Condorequatorial F-Region Rocket Campaign In Peru, S. Basu, Sa. Basu, J. Labelle, E. Kudeki, Bela G. Fejer, M. C. Kelley, H. E. Whitney

Bela G. Fejer

Radar backscatter at 50 MHz, rocket, and VHF/GHz scintillation measurements of spread F irregularities at the magnetic equator in Peru were made during the Project Condor campaign in March 1983. The paper discusses the coordinated set of observations on two evenings, March 1 and March 14, 1983, when the altitude of the F region peak differed by more than 150 km. The full complement of equatorial spread F phenomena, namely, the occurrence of 3-m plume structures and VHF/GHz scintillations, were recorded on both these evenings. It was found that the radar backscatter with extended plumes occurs in association with maximum …

The Utah Ecology Project: Ecological Impact Of Weather Modification Studies In The Uinta Mountains, United States Deparment Of The Interior, Bureau Of Reclamation

Elusive Documents

The Uinta Mountains are located in extreme northeastern Utah and

northwestern Colorado. The major portion of the range and all areas

rising above 3,050 m (10,000 ft) lie within five Utah counties (Daggett,

Duchesne, Summit, Uintah and Wasatch). The high elevation segment of

the range in Utah is commonly referred to as the High Uintas. This

report will consider only the so-called High Uintas.

A Survey Of Archeological And Historical Resources Within The Bonneville Unit Of The Central Utah Project, Frank W. Hull, Craig W. Fuller

Elusive Documents

Four small archeological sites were found but were of insufficient significance to warrant their further study or preservation. Providing the enlargement of Deer Creek Reservoir represents the only alternative, a comprehensive study of the community and its historic resources has been recommended, especially as it relates to the use of land and water. In addition, study has been recommended of the settlement as it relates to the understanding of agricultural development in Utah.

Bear River Project First Phase Idaho And Utah (Appendix C), United States Department Of The Interior, Bureau Of Reclamation

Elusive Documents

The project lands of the Bear River project (first phase) have been classified with respect to their suitability for sustained crop production under irrigation development. This appendix to the feasibility report is a presentation of the investigations and results of these land classification studies.

The land classification surveys were conducted for the purpose of locating and delineating by proper land class and subclass the areas of arable land which could be served under the proposed project facilities. To accomplish this objective, all lands were given a thorough examination. including intensive field and laboratory tests. Following the final selection of the …

Bear River Project First Phase Idaho And Utah (Appendix E), United States Department Of The Interior, Bureau Of Reclamation

Elusive Documents

The following report presents estimates of the value of irrigation and of the ability of water users to pay for irrigation water supplied from the development of the Bear River project. A general description of the existing agricultural economy and projections as to future economic conditions with development of the project are also presented in this study. The economic analysis of the Bear River project has been accomplished in accordance with Reclamation Instructions and directives concerning the preparation of feasibility reports. Irrigation payment capacity by the water users, expressed in dollars and cents, was accomplished through the farm budget method …

Bear River Project First Phase Idaho And Utah (Appendix A), United States Department Of The Interior, Bureau Of Reclamation

Elusive Documents

By means of storage reservoirs, distribution works, and water exchanges, the Bear River project, first phase, would increase the usable water supply of Bear River below Bear Lake and its Cache Valley tributaries, Cub River, Mink Creek, for irrigation, municipal and industrial uses, and fish and wildlife propagation. Project reservoirs would also provide recreation and flood control benefits. The Project would have main stem and East Cache segments.
