Title	Hydrologic Reconnaissance of the Bear River Basin in Southeastern Idaho
Description	Provides results of a hydrologic study of the Bear River Basin in Southeastern Idaho begun in July 1967. This October 1969 report by N. P. Dion describes the distribution and availability of water resources, presents well data, describes water quality, looks at the effect of increasted water use, and identifies existing and potential hydrologic problems. Report is 66 typescript pages in a spiral binding. Includes tables, charts, and three maps.
Abstract	The areal distribution of precipitation in the Bear River basin is controlled chiefly by elevation, and quantities range from less than 10 inches in Bear Lake Valley to more than 45 inches on the Bear River Range. Precipation on the basin averages about 2.3 million acre-feet per year... . The principal course of recharge to the aquifers include precipitation, spring snowmelt and runoff, seepage of irrigation water, and losses from irrigation canals. Some additional recharge is provided by the leakage of water from Blackfoot Reservoir in the Blackfoot River basin to the Blackfoot Lava Field in the Bear River basin... . Natural discharge from the aquifers is by ground-water flow to the Bear River, by springs and seeps along the banks of the river, and by evapo-transpiration in large marshy tracts. Some natural discharge into the adjoining Portneuf River basin may occur by the movement of water through a basalt in Tenmile Pass and by a northward movement of water in the vicinity of Soda Point....
