W. Kerr Scott Reservoir Sedimentation Resurveys for May 1978 and September 1979.

Abstract

The W. Kerr Scott Reservoir is a multiple-purpose project operated for flood control and water supply. The original controlled capacity at spillway elevation of 1,075 feet was 154,000 acre-feet. The purpose of this report is to make an evaluation of sedimentation problems related to the presence and operation of the W. Kerr Scott Reservoir, and determine if the accumulated volume of sediment is sufficient to warrant revising the original stage-capacity curve. This report evaluates the monitoring program for the project and serves as an instrument for documenting basic field data essential for this and future efforts.
