Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Fort Worth, Texas, metropolitan area, 1977

Hydrologic investigations of urban areas in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. These investigations are now in progress in several major metropolitan areas including Austin, Dallas, Dallas County, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio. In October 1968, the Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Fort Worth, began a program of hydrologic investigations on several small streams in Fort Worth. The investigations are designed to evaluate factors affecting floods on small streams in the metropolitan area. Studies of additional streams were added to the program in October 1969. In October 1976, a reduction in the scope of data collection was made, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District, assumed financing of the data collection.

Hydrologic data for Little Elm Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1975

This report contains rainfall, runoff, and storage data collected during the 1975 water year for a 75.5 sq mi area above the stream-gaging station Little Elm Creek near Aubrey, Texas. Floodflows from 35.7 sq mi of the area are regulated by 16 floodwater-retarding structures constructed by the Soil Conservation Service. Six storm periods were selected for detailed computations and analyses. Water-quality data is given for Little Elm Creek. (Woodard-USGS)

Hydrologic data for Little Elm Creek, Trinity River Basin, Texas, 1974

The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the implementation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of "The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944" and "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. The Soil Conservation Service has found that approximately 3,500 floodwater-retarding structures would be physically and economically feasible in Texas. As of September 30, 1974, 1,636 of these structures had been built.
