WATER-SUPPLY PAPERS

The series of water-supply papers entitled "Water levels and artesian pressures in northwestern States" contains records of ground-water-level measurements made throughout Utah. Beginning with water year 1975, records of water levels and artesian pressures have been reported in the annual water-resources data reports for Utah.

Prior to 1899, surface-water records were published in annual reports. Beginning with water year 1961, surface-water records for Utah have been reported in the annual water-resources data reports for Utah.

The series of water-supply papers entitled "Quality of surface waters of the United States" contains records of the chemical quality and temperature of surface water and the suspended-sediment load of streams. Beginning with water year 1964, water-quality records for both surface and ground water have been reported in the annual water-resources data reports for Utah.

The series of water-supply papers entitled "Quality of surface waters for irrigation, western United States" contains chemical-quality data for surface water used for irrigation.
