“…Data obtained since September 1978 appear in annual releases entitled "Water Resources Data for Utah" (U.S. Geological Survey, 1980-82). Results of drilling and testing are given in Holmes (1980); and results of all interpretive work appear in Butler and England (1979), Holmes (1979), Holmes and Kimball (1983), Jurado and Fields (1978), Kimball (1981), Lindskov and Kimball (1982), Naten and Fuller (1981), Seiler and Tooley (1982), and Waltemeyer (1982).…”

Comparison of mean chemical composition of four retort waters with natural waters in the southeastern Uinta Basin-CONVERSION FACTORS Most values in this report are given in inch-pound units. For those readers who may prefer to use metric units rather than inch-pound units, the conversion factors for the terms used in the report are listed below. The conversion factors are shown to four significant figures.

“…Much information on the stream environment is summarized in the following reports: Peterson (U.S. Geological Survey, written commun., 1977), Jurado and Fields (1978), Butler and England (1979), Holmes (1979), Naten and Fuller (1981), Seiler andTooley (1982), andWaltemeyer (1982). In addition, results of two time-oftravel studies on the White River are summarized in the files of the Geological Survey.…”
