Abstract

In 1903 a study of the availability, as water producers, of a number of water-sheds near San Francisco, California, made an analysis of rainfall and run-off conditions necessary. Studies were made of the distribution of rain throughout that part of the Coast Range lying between the latitudes of Santa Cruz and San Francisco, and extending eastward from the Pacific Ocean to the westerly edge of the San Joaquin Valley. The result of these studies is shown on the map, Plate LIX. Thereupon, a computation was made of the water production in three basins tributary to the three peninsula reservoirs of the Spring Valley Water Company, which furnish water for San Francisco.
