PURPOSE The purpose of this bill is to provide appropriations for fiscal year 2019, beginning October 1, 2018 and ending September 30, 2019, for energy and water development, and for other related pur- poses. It supplies funds for water resources development programs and related activities of the Corps of Engineers’ civil works pro- gram in title I; for the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Rec- lamation and Central Utah Project in title II; for the Department of Energy’s energy research and development activities, including environmental restoration and waste management, and atomic en- ergy defense activities of the National Nuclear Security Adminis- tration in title III; and for independent agencies and commissions, including the Appalachian Regional Commission, Delta Regional Authority, Denali Commission, Northern Border Regional Commis- sion, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in title IV. SUMMARY OF ESTIMATES AND RECOMMENDATIONS The fiscal year 2019 budget estimates for the bill total $31,610,121,000 in new budget (obligational) authority. The rec- ommendation of the Committee totals $43,766,000,000. This is $12,155,879,000 above the budget estimates and $16,816,716,000 below the enacted appropriation for the current fiscal year. The Committee notes the enacted appropriation for the current fiscal year includes $17,419,716,000 in supplemental appropriation for disaster relief requirements. SUBCOMMITTEE HEARINGS To develop this recommendation, the Committee held three budg- et hearings in April 2018 in connection with the fiscal year 2019 budget requests for the Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administra- tion, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The hearings pro- vided officials

    4.3 WATER RESOURCES 4.3 WATER RESOURCES This section describes the existing hydrological setting for the County, including a discussion of water quality, based on published and unpublished reports and data compiled by regional agencies. Agencies contacted include the United States Geological Survey, the California Department of Water Resources, and the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board. This section also identifies impacts that may result from the project. SETTING CLIMATE The local climate is considered warm desert receiving approximately six to eight inches of rainfall per year (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1986). Rainfall occurs primarily in the winter months, with lesser amounts falling in late summer and fall. Kings County would also be considered a dry climate since evaporation greatly exceeds precipitation.1 A common characteristic of dry climates, other than relatively small amounts of precipitation, is that the amount of precipitation received each year is highly variable. Generally, the lower the mean annual rainfall, the greater the year-to-year variability (Lutgens and Tarbuck, 1979). SURFACE WATER HYDROLOGY The County is part of a hydrologic system referred to as the Tulare Lake Basin (Figure 4.3- 1). The management of water resources within the Tulare Lake Basin is a complex activity and is critical to the region’s agricultural operations. The County can be divided into three main hydrologic subareas: the northern alluvial fan and basin area (in the vicinity of the Kings, Kaweah, and Tule rivers and their distributaries), the Tulare Lake Zone, and the southwestern uplands (including the areas west of the California Aqueduct and Highway 5) (Figure 4.3-2).

Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. * Menlo Park, CA 94025 Frontispiece The 1864 field party of the California Geological Survey. From left to right: James T. Gardiner, Richard D. Cotter, William H. Brewer, and Clarence King. INTRODUCTION This field trip guide includes road logs for the three principal roadways on the west slope of the Sierra Nevada that are adjacent to, or pass through, parts of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks (Figs. 1,2, 3). The roads include State Route 180 from Fresno to Cedar Grove in Kings Canyon Park (the Kings Canyon Highway), State Route 198 from Visalia to Sequoia Park ending near Grant Grove (the Generals Highway) and the Mineral King road (county route 375) from State Route 198 near Three Rivers to Mineral King. These roads provide a good overview of this part of the Sierra Nevada which lies in the middle of a 250 km span over which no roads completely cross the range. The Kings Canyon highway penetrates about three-quarters of the distance across the range and the State Route 198~Mineral King road traverses about one-half the distance (Figs.

  • Kentucky's Lakes and Their Namesm
    • .._ < ~KENTUCKY'S LAKES AND THEIR NAMESM William A. Withington (University of Kentucky) (Paper presented at the Second Blue Ridge Onomastics Symposium, Roanoke, Virginia, May 16, 1987 ) ABSTRACT. A set of 107 major and lesser lakes situated in all of the state's major regions are the base in an analysis of the diversity of lakes and names of lakes in Kentucky. With a few e x ceptions, Kentucky lakes are artificial created by damming of streams beginning with Herrington, the first large lake, in 1925. Lake names have been grouped into fourteen categories. Three-fourths of the lakes have names in the three categories of Stream (30); community (27); and person (22). Terrain (5) and Administrative Unit (5) are the two most frequent names used among the other 28 Kentt1cky lakes in this study set. Kentucky ' s present landsca pe gives the appearance of a very well-watered terrain with many rivers, lakes and ponds. However, e x cept for a few water bodies in the lower Ohio and Mississippie River lowlands of westernmost Kentucky, the lakes are reservoirs or "tanks" --The U.S. Geological Survey's term--created artificially by damming s treams. Prior to the creation of Kentucky' s first large lake, Lake Herrington in 1925, mos t were small, usually associated with gristmills in need of local waterpower or with communities establishing water supply reservoirs . Beginning with Lake Herrington, c onstructed by Kentucky Ut ilities for hydroelectric power on the lower Di x River, a large number of lakes have been created in all parts of the state.
