Hydrology support study for a case study of Federal expenditures on a water and related land resource project Boise Project, Idaho and Oregon. Research report, OWRT title II contract c-4202 Item Info

This study of the water use and water control of the Boise River Project as a part of a case study of Federal expenditures on a water and related land resources project has reviewed the basic hydrologic system, the reservoir system, the irrigation system, the water rights, the ground water conditions, the flood; and flood control, and general reservoir operations over time. Emphasis in the study has been the accumulation, classification, and arrangement of water information for later use in the over all research effort of studying whether the objectives of water development are being met. This has been done recognizing that the planning for and development of the Boise River Project has been evolutionary over a period of over 100 years. Where possible an audit has been presented of whether the water use and water control functions are meeting good standards. Brief conclusions are presented with recommendations for mroe detailed studies that might be accomplished in future phases of this continuing project.
