Book Description
Excerpt from Ground Water in Southeastern Nevada The area covered by this report lies in southeastern Nevada and comprises about 17,000 square miles, of which about 6,000 square miles is in Clark County, 8,500 in Lincoln County, 300 in White Pine County, and 2,000 in Nye County. (See fig. 1.) The area thus covered is about the size of Massachusetts and New Hampshire combined. The San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad, commonly known as the Salt Lake route, crosses the eastern and southern parts of the area, passing through Caliente, Moapa, and Las Vegas. Two branch roads connect with the main line, one extending from Pioche to Caliente and another from Moapa to St. Thomas. The Las Vegas & Tonopah Railroad, which is subsidiary to the Salt Lake route, extends from Las Vegas northwestward to Goldfield. Purpose Of Investigation. The agricultural development of an arid region, such as is covered by this report, is dependent on the water supply available for irrigation and for domestic use. Large areas of good soil lie idle for want of water to make them productive, and most of the water that falls as rain or snow is dissipated and produces very little vegetation that is of economic value. A large amount of water percolates through the ground to the streams or valley floors, from which most of it is removed by evaporation. In some places this water can be intercepted in its course through the ground and used for domestic purposes, for watering live stock, or for irrigation. The need of more watering places on the range has long been felt, and recently the demand for information in regard to available supplies of ground water in Nevada has been increased by the agricultural, mining, and industrial development of the State.
