Ecological Implications Of Dimethyl Mercury In An Aquatic Food Chain, Lawrence P. Kolb, Donald B. Porcella, E. Joe Middlebrooks

Reports

Laboratory studies indicate dimethyl mercury may be a major product of microbial methylation of inorganic mercury. Although another methylation product, monomethyl mercury, has been extensively studied, the physical, chemical, and biologicl factors affecting the transport and food chain distribution of dimethyl mercury have remained unclear. This report presents results of laboratory studies of volatilization rates from water as a function of temperature and mixing conditions, uptake kinetics and equilibrium concentrations in algae,

Sorption Kinetics Part I: A Laboratory Investigation Of Six Proposed Rate Laws Using Batch Reactors, David W. Hendricks, Laxman G. Kuratti

Reports

Six proposed rate equations for sorption kinetics have been investigated by laboratory batch experiments involving some 270 individual “runs” to determine sorption uptake with time for varying conditions of initial sorbate concentration, temperature, and sorbent species. The sorbate selected was rhodamine-B dye, used because it will sorb readily and is easily measured. Two sorbents, Dowex 50 resin, and Filtrasorb 200 activated carbon were used. Temperature conditions were 10, 20, 30, and 40°C, and concentrations ranged from .0008 to 400 micrograms per ml, rhodamine-B. Analysis of data was computer automated, requiring as input only test conditions, instrument readings, dilutions, and corresponding …

Hydraulic Tests On Model Of Manifold Of The Pumps Of The 1974 Extension Of The Yorktown Power Station With All Combinations Of One And Two Branches Taken Out Of Operation, Roland W. Jeppson, Calvin G. Clyde, Charles Kincaid

Reports

Introduction: A description of the fabrication of the manifold model and the design of the facilities constructed to test the model under various steady state flow conditions is given in the previous report. All tests included in the last report were with equal flows occurring in each of the five branches. Since the operation of the prototype manifold will necessitate that one, and possibly two pumps, be taken out of operations when the demand for cooling water is at a minimum, Browth & Root, Inc. requested taht the performance of the manifold model be determined under steady-state conditions with: (1) …

Head Losses Due To Ring-Tite Filament Wound Elbows And Tees And Frictional Losses In Pipes Of Polyvinylchloride, Roland W. Jeppson

Reports

This study consists of collecting and analyzing experimental data to determine the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor for 6-inch and 4-inch PERMASTRAN® pipes and the head losses due to RING-TITE filament-wound 6-inch 90° elbows, a 6 x 6-inch tee under several modes of operation, and a 6 x 6 x 4-inch tee with the flow entering a 6-inch branch and leaving through the 4-inch branch. The test program consisted of 8 series of individual tests with each series giving data for flow rates for each series ranging from 150 gpm to either 1200 gpm or 1500 gpm depending upon the series. The …

Computer Simulation Of The Hydrologic And Salinity Flow Systems Within The Bear River Basin, Robert W. Hill, Eugene K. Israelsen, J. Paul Riley

Reports

Accompanying the increased use of water resources is an increases accumulation of chemical pollutants. Te prevent degradation of the water resources beyong useful limits, pollution inputs from additional uses must be quite accurately predicted prior to implementation of the new use. The model described in this report was formulated to provide the required predictive capability for the Bear River Basin. Modeling concepts of the hydrologic system are based upon the development of basin relationships describing the hydrologic processes which are linked together by the countinuity-of-mass principle. The salinity flow system is then linked to the hydrologic system based on the …

Hydrologic Inventory Of The Bear River Study Unit, Frank W. Haws

Reports

Purpose and Scope of Study.

The 1963 Utah State Legislature authorized the Utah Water and Power Board (now the Utah Division of Water Resources) to develop a state water plan in order to give coordination and direction to the activities of all state and federal agencies concerned with Utah's water resources. To facilitate the development of this plan, a proposal was submitted through the State Planning Coordinator in the Governor's Office to the Urban Renewal Administration of the Housing and Home Finance Agency. Funding was approved effective May 19, 1966, under the Urban Planning Assistance Program authorized by Section 701 …

A Study Of Water Institutions In Utah And Their Influence On The Planning, Developing, And Managing Of Water Resources, Frank W. Haws

Reports

Preface: For the purposes of this study an institution is defined as a formal framework or organization through which men pool their efforts and resources to accomplish specific purposes. Included in this framework is the pattern of organization and authority, the legal structure and the governmental rules and regulations that must be adhered to during the process of reaching the stated goals. The institutions related to water resources are many and varied and include: political governments (state, county, city, etc.); subdivisions of government created by legislative consent such as irrigation districts, special improvement districts, metropolitan water companies (a department in …

Social, Economic, Environmental, And Technical Factors Influencing Water Reuse, A. Bruce Bishop, Suravuth Pratishthananda, John Keith, Craig Colton, A. Berry Crawford

Reports

A growing population together with rising per capita income has resulted in increased demand for water for virtually all uses. At the same time there has been increased public concern for maintaining the quality of streams for recreation, sight-seeing, and other social uses, and to conserve environmental values. A partial answer to these conflicts in water use and management is more extensive waste water reclamation and reuse. Heretofore, water salvage and reuse has been mainly practiced in specific operational cases, such as recycling industrial process water, or on an ad hoc basis, such as a series of diversions and subsequent …

A Preliminary Model Of The Hydrologic-Sociologic Flow System Of An Urban Area, Wade H. Andrews, J. Paul Riley, Craig W. Colton, George B. Shih, Malcolm B. Masteller

Reports

This report describes the first phase of a larger study which is directed toward the development of a general technique for analyzing and solving urban metropolitan hydrologic problems through a joint consideration of both the physical and social dimensions. This report is limited to the preliminary work of identification of social variables, the first steps in assigning mathematical values to them, and developing a mathematical format for these variables. In addition, the physical-hydrologic system is identified for purposes of clarifying the elements in that system. The ultimate objective of the entire study is directed toward discovering a theoretical and generally …

The Demand For Agricultural Water In Utah, Mark H. Anderson, Jay C. Andersen, John E. Keith, Calvin G. Clyde

Reports

Water is recognized as an essential element in Utah's agricultural economy. It is the subject of much controvery and litigation and yet most discussion of the subject is based on opinions and prejudice rather than upon the basis of sound scientific evidence. This paper attempts to provide some of the economic information necessary for sound decisions in the development and use of Utah's water resources with respect to agriculture. Utah has been divided into ten drainage regions (hydrologi subregions) and the presently irrigated and potentially irrigable land according to land class were estimated for each country or portion of a …
