Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Water Powers of Wisconsin The bulletin text remains unchanged. Although written over 70 years ago, the text is still relevant. The streams and rivers that were surveyed then still flow with the same power, and the decision of whether or how to utilize that power still needs to be made. Many of the dams described in 1908 have been rebuilt or removed. Some of the favorable power sites identified then have been developed and many more potential sites are now restricted from development because of existing incompatible land or water use. Hydroelectric power generation does cause environmental impact. The merits of reservoirs versus free flowing streams is a major and controversial water resource management issue involving water quality, fish management, flood control, recreation and land use. Many of the pictures in this bulletin show rapids and waterfalls in pre-dam conditions that document part of the aesthetic and environ mental price paid for hydroelectric power generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Power Engineering: The Theory, Investigation and Development of Water Powers Air and water, both physical agents most essential to life, have al ways been the most obvious sources Of potential energy and have each been utilized for power purposes since the earliest times. Be side the Nile, the Euphrates, and the Yellow Rivers, thousands Of years ago the primitive hydraulic engineer planned and constructed his simple forms of current wheels and utilized the energy of the river current to raise its waters and irrigate the otherwise arid wastes into fertility. Such primitive wheels were also utilized for the grinding Of corn and other simple power purposes. From these simple forms and primitive applications have gradually been de veioped the modern water power installations of to-day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Water-Power of Maine In accordance with the recommendation of Gov. Chamberlain, an exploration of the water-power of the State was ordered by the Legislature of 1867, and was entered upon under the general supervision of a Commission, consisting of Hons. John A. Poor, A. D. Lockwood and Hannibal Hamlin. The Commissioners, having conducted the enterprise through its preliminary stage, retired at the close of 1867, and should not, accordingly, be held responsible for any shortcomings of this Report. In regard to the arrangement of the water-powers, (in Part III, ) it need only be explained that such powers as are located in town ships without proper names, will be found under the letter T. All others appear under the names of the towns, townships, etc., in the appropriate alphabetical place. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Public Utility of Water Powers and Their Governmental Regulation Notwithstanding the above statements, there is a real menace in the present situation, which holds many problems that are difficult of solution. Certain consolidations of water-power interests have taken place during the last few years, and these, with the appearance of the names of a few persons among the officers or in the directorate of a large number of companies operating water-power plants, mak ing new installations, or manufacturing or marketing water power or electric machinery, point unmistakably to a concentration of owner ship and administration in several groups which, in the usual course of events, might consolidate or at least effect a community of agree ment. The menace in the prospect lies not so much in this probability as in the ability of such a combination to manipulate unrighteously the public interest. The menace is therefore speculative, but this fact does not obviate the necessity for legislation. The nation and the State are accustomed to legislate against speculative crimes and abuses, because experience shows that in the present state of society mankind is yet frail. What, then, should be the legislation necessary to meet the present conditions? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Instructions Relating to the Gathering of Certain Preliminary Information Respecting Water-Powers (Classic Reprint) by : Arthur V. White

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Instructions Relating to the Gathering of Certain Preliminary Information Respecting Water-Powers While conducting investigation relating to the water-power resources of Canada, the author of this brief pamphlet has often felt the need of having for distribution, and in concise form, a brief statement which would serve to set forth, in simple terms, some of the fundamentals which should govern in the gathering of preliminary information respecting water-powers. Some of the Provincial Governments are making special investigations of their water-power resources. The Government of British Columbia, for example, has just organized (1912) a Water-Power Branch which will conduct hydrographic examinations of detailed and special character. The Commission of Conservation, Canada, have in hand the making of a preliminary investigation of inland waters. This investigation permits the use of reconnaissance methods, by means of which knowledge may quickly be had respecting the general character, magnitude, and locations of the water-powers of the country. The present pamphlet has been prepared - somewhat hurriedly - to meet pressing needs arising in connection with the water-power research being made by the Commission in the summer of 1912 in the Province of British Columbia. The pamphlet is intended to be only a brief suggestive guide to those who are interested in the collection of preliminary data relating to inland waters. If need so requires, the scope of the pamphlet, at some future time, could be extended. It is believed that if a little special study is given to the subject of inland waters by those entrusted with the administration, or engaged upon the survey of government lands, such study will evoke in many persons an interest in our water resources, and in turn this will prove to be a stimulus which will result in the observation and recording of much information respecting water-powers, the acquisition of which information might otherwise be delayed.

In 1885 Prof. Dwight Porter, in his report for the Tenth Census of the United States, Volume XVI, upon the water powers of the eastern Gulf slope, gave an excellent description of the most important water-power streams in the Mobile drainage basin, with such estimates of power as were po sible from a reconnaissance and a study of rainfall, drainage areas, and the navigation surveys made by the United States Engineer Corps.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water-Powers of North Carolina (a Supplement to Bulletin No. 8) The volume of water flowing in a stream, the run - off or discharge, is expressed in various terms, each of which has become associated with a certain class of work. These terms may be divided into two groups: (1) Those which represent a rate of flow, as second-feet, gallons per minute, miner's inch, and run -_off in second feet per square mile, and (2) those which represent the actual quantity of water, as run-off in depth In inches and. Acre f - oot. They may be defined as follows. Second foot is an abbreviation for cubic foot per second, and IS the quantity of water flowing In a stream one foot wide, one foot deep, at a rate of one foot per Second. It Is generally used as a fundamental unit from which others are computed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Looking Squarely at the Water Power Problem This is a personal appeal for water power legislation. The author confesses that he has an old-fashioned ambition to do a constructive thing - to assist in the creation of an industrial opportunity in a neglected place and to make homes on land now silent. He also cherishes a hope of reasonable and wholesome reward. These are two honorable incentives which have, from the beginning of things, animated individual effort. Some people re gard such motives distrustfully but it cannot be believed that such sentiments which, if manifested in an earlier day, would have impeded or stifled our greatest commercial achievements, will long survive in the present day. Therefore, the author will state his case in all frankness and be confident that those who cannot accept his conclusions will have no reason to misconstrue his purpose.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Power for the Farm and Country Home In the course of its general investigations of the water powers of the State, the Water Supply Commission has here tofore confined its attention to the possibilities for large develop ments, and the regulation of the How of rivers and large creeks. No previous or general investigation of small creeks and brooks and their power possibilities has been made, not because they were considered unimportant, but because the Commission believes that if the State decides to take an active part in the regulation of the flow of streams and the development and conservation of water powers, it should confine its first activities to the larger units, leaving the smaller opportunities for later examination and for private and individual development. However, no comprehensive system of conservation can meet with universal favor unless it contemplates the prevention of waste, great or small, and wherever found.
