Book Description

The reservoirs are grouped by drainage basins, the boundaries of which are shown on an index map. Summary data include reservoir locations, survey dates, drainage areas, reservoir storage capacities, ratio of reservoir capacities to average annual inflows, specific weights (dry) of sediment deposits, and average annual sediment-accumulation rates. This publication supersedes and updates USDA Miscellaneous publication no. 1266, "Summary of reservoir sediment deposition surveys made in the United States through 1970."
