The Bureau of Reclamation conducted a feasibility study of seeding winter mountain clouds as a possible means of enhancing the water supplies of the Sevier River Basin of Utah. A considerable body of pertinent meteorological observations from in or near the basin is examined. The evidence indicates that Utah winter mountain clouds often have more supercooled liquid water available than is naturally converted to snowfall. Thus, the needed "raw material" for cloud seeding to be effective is frequently available. Much of the excess liquid water has been found in the lowest kilometer or less over the mountain barriers, a region …

This book deals with the development of water resources Water, of course, has been one of the great factors tn the growth of the American West . Beyond the Wasatch details the process by which water flowing from the southwest drainages of northern Utah's Uinta Mountains was put to human use. The story belongs primarily to the first half of the 20th century, although parts of it extend to both earlier and later times. The water involved rises within the State of Utah, and its utilization had implications mainly for Utah. Development involved native Americans and the settlement of a …
