  • Index of Surface-Water Records
    GEOLOGICAL SURVEY CIRCULAR 72 January 1950 INDEX OF SURFACE-WATER RECORDS PART 11.PPACIFIC SLOPE BASINS IN CALIFORNIA TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1948 Prepared by San Francisco District UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Oscar L. Chapman, Secretary GEOLOGICAL SURVEY W. E. Wrather, Director WASHINGTON, D. C. Free on application to the Director, Geological Survey, Washington 26, D. C. INDEX OF SURFACE-WATER RECORDS PART 11.PPACIFIC SLOPE BASINS IN CALIFORNIA TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1948 EXPLANATION The index lists the stream-flow ana reservoir stations in the Pacific Slope Basins in California for which records have been or are to be pub­ lished for periods prior to September 30, 1948. The stations are listed in downstream order. Tributary streams are indicated by indention. Station names are given in their most recently published forms. Paren­ theses around part of a station name indicate that the enclosed word or words were used in an earlier published name of the station or in a name under which records were published by some agency other than the Geological Survey. The drainage areas, in square miles, are the latest figures published or otherwise available at this time. Drainage areas that were obviously inconsistent with other drainage areas on the same stream have been omitted. Some drainage areas not published by the Geological Survey are listed with an appropriate footnote stating the published source of the figure of drainage area. Under "period of record" breaks of less than a 12-month period are not shown. A dash not followed immediately by a closing date shows that the station was in operation on September 30, 1948.

  • Reservoir Sedimentation and Water Supply Reliability By: Aubrey Mescher, MESM Ms
    Reservoir Sedimentation and Water Supply Reliability By: Aubrey Mescher, MESM Ms. Mescher is a water resources specialist at Aspen’s Agoura Hills headquarters office. Our reservoirs are filling with sediment. That’s the same as dirt. Mud, muck, silt. Rocks, gravel, even boulders. All of this stuff where there’s supposed to be just water. Water for drinking, irrigation, recreation, commercial and industrial uses, flood control, and groundwater recharge. This isn’t a new issue. Actually, reservoirs are assumed to have a finite lifetime, limited by loss of function due to sedimentation. But reservoirs are filling with sediment far more quickly than anticipated, and important water supply and flood control facilities are not only being rendered useless before their time, but in doing so they are simultaneously introducing new issues with public safety and water supply reliability. What is sedimentation? Sedimentation is a natural process that occurs when soil particles suspended in water settle out of the main water column to the bottom. Sediment content in a waterway is higher during and after storm events, when rates of flow and erosion are higher, and lower during dry months, when these rates tend to be lower. Under natural conditions, unconstrained by a dam, the quantity of water and sediment in a waterway is generally balanced, as the ground surface and riverbed erode into the waterway, and sediment is deposited in downstream areas, where it provides habitat and replenishes riverbanks and beaches. But when a dam is constructed in a waterway, it traps the flow of both water and sediment. The sediment gradually accumulates behind the dam, larger particles such as rocks and gravel settling to the reservoir floor while the spaces in between fill with finer material such as silt and mud.

  • Chapter 8: Safety Element Arcadia General Plan
    Chapter 8: Safety Element Arcadia General Plan 8 x Introduction Community safety issues influence many decisions people make, from big decisions such as where to live or spend leisure time, to small decisions, such as identifying the time of day they feel comfortable walking alone. When thinking about where to buy a home, people may consider whether a hillside location near a wildfire zone is of concern. In its budgeting decisions, elected bodies allocate funds to fire and law enforcement services commensurate with overall public safety objectives. Critical to these decision processes is knowing the hazards present in a community and establishing safety standards. By identifying threats to our safety, we can better guard against disasters and develop effective response plans. This Safety Element identifies, evaluates, and addresses local and regional safety issues, and establishes the goals, policies, and actions that will help reduce loss of life, injuries, property loss, environmental damage, and social and economic disruption from natural and human-caused disasters. These issues are addressed within the context of: Environmental Hazards Emergency Services Human-Caused Hazards Emergency Preparedness Threats to National Security Arcadia General Plan - November 2010 Safety | 8-1 The goals, policies, and programs in this element are shaped around three approaches that are integral to Arcadia’s plan for a safe community: 1) avoiding hazards and threats through careful planning, 2) being prepared to respond to any and all crisis situations to minimize injury or loss, 3) educating the public of best safety practices so that the community does its part to improve public safety. Achieving Our Vision Residents and businesses look to the City to protect the community from threats to public safety.

Kennedy Acknowledgements Effective water resources management practices are essential in Southern California to help the region sustain its water supply. The Los Angeles County Flood Control District is charged with effectively managing local stormwater to help supplement these vital natural resources. The LACFCD and its partners collaborated with the Bureau of Reclamation to complete this extensive Study. A great deal of time and energy over the past three years went into making the Los Angeles Basin Study a successful planning tool for the region to use in preparing for the challenges of climate change by capturing stormwater through enhanced conservation practices.

The serious consequences of failure makes it imperative that dams in seismic regions be designed to resist earthquake shaking safely and economically. To achieve this, designers of dams must be provided with information about those dams that have been subjected to strong ground shaking, with or without damage. The most valuable of such information is provided by seismic recordings made on or near dams during strong shaking, as these show the nature of the earthquake shaking. Unfortunately there exist relatively few such recordings because only few dams are instrumented for this purpose. This report provides a collection of seismic records, ranging from very strong shaking to moderate shaking, which whould be informative to engineers who design dams.

  • 4.8 Hydrology/Water Quality
    Draft EIR CHAPTER 4 Environmental Analysis October 2012 SECTION 4.8 Hydrology/Water Quality 4.8 HYDROLOGY/WATER QUALITY This section of the EIR analyzes the potential environmental effects on hydrology and water quality from implementation of the proposed Granada Hills–Knollwood Community Plan and implementing ordinances and the proposed Sylmar Community Plan and implementing ordinances (proposed plans). It addresses stormwater runoff and urban pollutants, flood hazards, including sea level rise, drainage and groundwater resources. A regulatory framework is also provided in this section, describing applicable agencies and regulations related to hydrology/water quality. The evaluation of the proposed plans’ effects on water supplies, including groundwater, is included in Section 4.14 (Utilities/Service Systems). Several comments regarding hydrology and water quality related to drainage and flooding were received in response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP) circulated for the proposed plans. The comments focused on the importance of the Pacoima Wash and other flood control channels for stormwater management and groundwater recharge. Baseline information for the analysis was compiled from a review of data and reports published by state agencies, environmental documents for projects in the vicinity, as well as information compiled and evaluated by the City of Los Angeles in conjunction with its stormwater management and hazard mitigation programs. These sources include the California Department of Water Resources, City of Los Angeles Water Quality Compliance Master Plan for Urban Runoff, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) floodplain mapping, the City of Los Angeles Hazard Mitigation Plan, General Plan, and Municipal Code, and other published materials. Full reference-list entries for all cited materials are provided in Section 4.8.5 (References).
