Points of interest include bridges, dams, gaging stations, county lines, hydrologic unit boundaries, and major tributaries. Drainage areas are presented for selected sites, including total drainage area for any streams draining at least 100 square miles. INTRODUCTION Expansion of water-resource investigations within the State of Illinois has amplified the need for a common index to locations on streams. A common index would aid in the coordination of various stream-related activities by facilitating data collection and interpretation.

MORRIS, Ph.D., President, Southern Illinois University STATE WATER SURVEY DIVISION William C. Ackermann, Chief URBANA 1966 FOREWORD In many parts of Illinois, reservoir storage of water is an important means of increasing usable water supplies to enable community growth and development. Because of this significance for water resources of the future, the Illinois State Water Survey initiated a reconnaissance investigation to identify potential sites within the state where surface storage of water is physically feasible. This report provides information on potential and existing reservoirs in 29 counties of south-central Illinois. Results of an earlier study of possible sites in the 17 southern counties of Illinois were published in 1957 as Report of Investi­ gation 31. Future reports will include similar information for 33 north-central counties and 23 northern counties. This division of the state was based primarily on drainage systems. These publications are intended to bring about greater understanding of the surface water storage potential.
