Water temperature data analysis and simulation for the Salmon River, Oswego County, New York, Summer, 1986

Research into the temperature effects of operation of the Salmon River Reservoir system of the Niagara Mohawk Power Company was conducted as part of a multi-agency effort to characterize the influences on riverine habitat of power plant operation. Several reports are being prepared to address various parts of the work that has been accomplished. Appendix 1 contains a list of those reports and the reporting entities. The goals of this portion of the research were to determine the magnitude of temperature effects due to power plant operation, and develop methods to predict water temperature in the river under both steady and unsteady flow conditions that are induced by the project operation.

Geohydrology of the glaciolacustrine aquifer in the Fulton area, Oswego County, New York

This is the second in a series of 11 map sets depicting hydrogeologic conditions in selected upstate aquifers in upstate New York. Geohydrologic data are compiled on seven maps at 1:24 ,000 scale. Together the maps provide a comprehensive overview of the principal aquifer in western Oswego County. The set includes surficial geology, geologic sections, soil permeability , water-table altitude, aquifer thickness, estimated well yield, and land use. The maps are designed to enable planners to evaluate waste-disposal practices that may adversely affect the aquifer. (USGS)
