| Notes | This report gives an overview of research on Oregon's hydroelectric resources. "A systematic, statewide investigation of stream power and energy has been made for alI reaches of 0regon streams not presently having dams but capable of producing 200 kw or more at least 50 percent of the time. From available precipitation data, topographic maps and stream gaging station records, hydrologic techniques were used to generate mean discharges, discharge patterns, flow-duration curves, stream power values and stream energy values for 7626 miles of rivers in Oregon, grouped into 1443 reaches." (fom the Abstract) Appendix 16 to this document covers the Umpqua Basin. |
