                            PREFACE






     This report was prepared with several thoughts in mind other




than merely to present a numerical description of the present and




projected municipal water supply situation in the Willamette River




Basin, Oregon.  Factors that influence development and utilization




of the water resource were examined in an effort to identify the




major influences within this basin.  Many of the factors have been




subjects of individual studies at various times and places with




little success in arriving at a universal formula for applying the




influencing factors.




     Consideration of resource development resulted in several




conclusions applicable to this basin at the present time.  The major




conclusion is that future source developments may not be defined by




location.  Civic pride and aesthetics have been inseparable major




factors of source selection and have at various times over the years




displaced economics as the deciding factor in source development.




It was therefore realized that future sources cannot be readily




defined just because they happen to be close and the least expensive




of several alternates.  Another major factor of future source




identification easily recognized is that of availability of water.




Definition of physically and legally available flow in most watershed




areas is impossible.  Gaging facilities in the upper reaches of most




streams are non-existent.  The appropriation of water by state water




rights may be tabulated, but the total rights are not descriptive of




the total user withdrawals.  Installation of gaging facilities would




cost approximately $4,000 per station for installation and $1,200 per

-------
                                                                       11




year per station for operation and maintenance.   Adjudication of water




rights within each minor basin to determine the  legally available flow




is also expensive.  As an example, the postage for mailing of adjudication




notices of the Tualatin River amounted to about  $20,000.




     Water treatment practices vary at the present time, but it has been




assumed that all surface water will be subject to complete treatment




some time in the future.  Complete treatment of  water from closed water-




sheds may not be required by the Oregon State Board of Health, but closed




watersheds are predicted to become a thing of the past.




     Ground water is used in large quantities, primarily for heating or




cooling, but not for typical municipal and industrial supplies.  Only




minor attention has been given to ground water in this paper because the




quantity available and the quality vary throughout the basin.  Only a




small part of the population relies upon ground  water and only a small




part of the basin may place any reliance upon ground water as a major




future source.




     Factors of consumption were examined and several factors became




apparent.  Some of the factors could be considered as universal throughout




the basin.  The major factors which could influence per capita use rates




as compared with other areas of the country include climate, urban develop-




ment trends, and level of wet process industrialization.  Soil moisture




balance for this area accounts for most of added summer use.  Examination




of records of Willamette Basin municipal water systems indicated that




the per capita use rates could best be correlated with community size.




Generally speaking, a city of a given size requires a certain amount of




industry and service trade to support the particular level of population.

                                                                      Ill

Thus it is necessary to examine an entire metropolitan area and not each

water system within the area.  However, consideration of metropolitan

areas is also necessary for distribution of projected population on a

long term basis.  It is neither practical nor possible to distribute popu-

lation within a metropolitan area on a long term basis.   Other factors such

as social and economic conditions, water rates, and water quality which

may be reflected in water use are assumed to be equal throughout the

basin in consideration of the future.

     Recognition is also given to the probable fact that new water service

areas will be formed in areas where public supplies are now non-existent.

In some cases these are identified and in other they are included only

as miscellaneous facilities in the minor subbasin.   Others will be formed

throughout the projection period.

     Typical patterns of man's progress became apparent early in the study.

The major cities throughout the world are located on or adjacent to major

waterways and the Willamette Basin conforms to this pattern. Conversely

the smaller communities are frequently located in an area away from major

waterways and therefore frequently experience a shortage of convenient

water.  The situation may be summed up by saying that generally the

smallest communities have the biggest problem and the least money.

     Acknowledgment for assistance is gratefully given to all of the

cities of the basin, water districts, private water companies, county

water resource groups, the Oregon State Board of Health, the Oregon State

Water Resources Board, the Oregon State Engineer, and the Oregon Public

Utilities Commission for their assistance in providing data.

PURPOSE




     This paper has been prepared to present data,  observations,  and a




preliminary evaluation of the municipal and industrial water supply




situation in the Willamette Basin, Oregon.






SCOPE




     The study has been performed in sufficient detail to generally de-




scribe the situation in terms of watersheds and demand areas.   The areas




are described in enough detail to point out those watershed  areas of




obvious seasonal shortages and those demand areas of obvious needs.   The




final means of satisfying future demands will be dependent upon a de-




tailed engineering analysis.  Only general conclusions and recommenda-




tions are given.  More detailed conclusions and recommendations may be




reached for specific reports by examination of the  detail and  relating it




to project needs.





CONCLUSIONS



     1.  The water supply situation may not be completely and  accurately




described until the status of existing streamflow is clearly understood,




     2.  There is a need for adjudication of all surface waters in and




adjacent to the Willamette River Basin.




     3.  Seasonal deficiencies may limit development in the  following sub-




basins until adequate storage or alternate provisions are a  reality:




         a.  Long Tom River




         b.  Calapooia River




         c.  South Santiam River

                                                                      2

         d.  Luckiamute River

         e.  Rickreall Creek

         f.  Yamhill River

         g.  Pudding River

         h.  Tualatin River

     Adjudication of water rights and state water policy will have a

major bearing on the importance of developments of the watersheds listed.

     4.  Industries and water supply agencies must make feasibility

studies in order to plan for the future.

     5.  Trans-basin diversions must be considered.


RECOMMENDATIONS
     1.  The State Engineer should initiate and complete adjudication

of all surface waters in and adjacent to the Willamette River Basin as

soon as possible.

     2.  All water supply agencies and industries should develop future

water supply plans compatible with State of Oregon policy for development

as needed.

     3.  The quality and quantity of legally available water should be

described in order to better  evaluate the need for and value of multiple
                          »
purpose storage especially in those sub-basins having apparent seasonal

deficiencies.

-------
A.  General




     The use of water for municipal and industrial purposes within the




Willamette Basin has increased at a more rapid rate than has the popu-




lation of the area.  There is neither sufficient past nor present data




to statistically describe the increase in use of water.  However, a review




of increased industrial activity and housing trends typifies the increased




demand for water.




     Increased demands for municipally supplied water may be defined by




a per capita demand increase as well as by the increase of the number of




persons served.  The number of persons served is increasing at a more




rapid rate than the basin population.  This is by reason of local




ordinances which require public water supplies for new housing development




and by the necessity for a reliable supply of safe water for household




use in established suburban areas.   In some suburban areas each house-




hold has been served by individual  subsurface waste disposal and water




supply until the situation became critical because of increased housing




density and ground water pollution  or contamination.   When the situation




becomes critical, the people residing in the area must take their choice




of either forming a legal body such as a water district for the purpose




of operating a public water system  or of annexing to an adjacent




community for municipal services.   In some instances county or city land




use control agencies recognize an area as unsuitable for individual




water supply and will not permit development until a public water system




is assured.

-------
                                                                        4




     Other factors contributing to the increased demand for water include




an increased number of modern home appliances that require more water than




did their preceding counterparts, and larger yards both by choice and by




ordinance.  There is also a trend toward larger green areas around public



buildings.  Yards, green areas and parks require large amounts of water




during the summer months.




     Industrial use of municipally supplied water is also increasing,




primarily for economic reasons.  Industries, in some instances, have




found it to be less expensive to purchase finished water than to develop




an individual water system to supply the desired quantity and quality




of water.  The largest industrial group user of municipally supplied water




is the food processing industry.  By the nature of the industry, it is




essential that large amounts of high quality water be available.



     The supply of water within the Willamette River Basin, on an annual



basis, is adequate for existing and projected municipal and industrial




requirements.  Some systems do experience short-term deficiencies due to




seasonal streamflow deficiencies and transmission and treatment limitations;



however, these may be overcome.  Smaller communities are normally the ones




with the most serious water supply problems and these problems are primarily




financial.  Most water supply problems within the basin may be



solved by storage, transmission or treatment;  however, small communities




are seldom able to finance the required improvement projects.

-------
                                                                       5




     Three major steps will have to be taken In order to satisfy future




municipal water demands.  (1) In some cases, upstream or out-of-basin



storage must be acquired, preferably from a multiple-purpose development




for use during periods of low natural stream flow.  (2) Transmission




line and distribution storage capacity must be sized to satisfy peak




demands without imposing excessive hourly or daily demands from the




source stream.  (3) People must become willing to accept streams now




considered to be of poor quality as a source for treatment plants.   Use




of reclaimed waste water may also occur in the future.   Past experience,




at places such as Salem and Eugene, indicate that the voters have been




willing to pay a premium for water from a river of higher apparent




quality in place of treating water to the same finished water standards




from the more convenient stream, the Willamette River.




     In most instances, it is not possible to arrive at a precise amount



of stored water required for a given user because only few of the



Willamette River tributary streams have been adjudicated and the status




of existing rights is not certain.  Water presently used in power claims



in places such as Lebanon, Albany, Salem and Oregon City even further




clouds the issue.   The stream flow is not gaged near many of the with-




drawal points, hence the flow and yield at sources is generally by




estimate only.






B.  Definition of Terms




     1.  Water Supply System




         The works and auxiliaries for collection, treatment and




distribution of the water from the source of supply to the free-flowing

-------
                                                                       6




outlet of the ultimate consumer.  (From PHS Drinking Water Standards)




     2.  Municipal Water Supply or Municipal and Industrial Water Supply




         A water supply for a privately or publicly owned system which




provides water within a service area for homes, businesses, industry and




public facilities.




     3.  Industrial Water Supply




         A water supply developed specifically for industrial use or that




portion of a Municipal and Industrial supply used especially for Indus trial




purposes.




     4.  Domestic Water Supply



         A water supply developed specifically for normal home or residential



use including drinking, bathing, cooking, lawn and family garden irrigation,




and stock watering as incidental to a residence, or that portion of  a




municipal and industrial supply used for the above purposes.



     5,  Irrigation Water




         Water distributed and used specifically for irrigation either




from an irrigation system, a municipal system, or from an individual




source.  The quality may or may not be suitable for domestic use.




     6.  Complete Treatment




         Water treatment consisting of at least flocculation, filtration,




and disinfection.  Other features may be included, such as pH or Flouride




adjustment, mineral or gas removal, sedimentation, or taste, odor and




color control measures.

-------
     7.  Disinfection




         Addition of chlorine or chlorine compounds to achieve a




satisfactory degree of sanitary purity.  Other means of disinfection




are not presently used in the Willamette Basin.






C.  Water Use Pattern




     The seasonal pattern of water used by communities within the



Willamette River Basin has very pronounced variations.  Detailed




analysis of daily water use compared with the day of the week, maximum




and minimum daily temperature, precipitation, drought duration, and




whether the day is a holiday or normal week day emphasizes the summer




irrigation demand.  The use of water for lawn and garden watering is




a major influencing factor in the demand fluctuation.  Seasonal




industrial activity, primarily food processing,  is another major factor.




     An example of seasonal variation of water use where there is little




fluctuation of industrial demands is Sweet Home.  Nearly the same area




is served both by the city water and sewer systems.  Figure 1 shows,




based on monthly figures from calendar year 1960, that the sewage




pumpage is always less than the water pumpage.



     A total of 248 MG of water was pumped and only 162 MG sewage during




1960.  The most pronounced differential was during July when 36.5 MG




water was pumped and only 13.2 MG sewage was  pumped.



This indicates that over one-half of the water was used for non-sewered




uses during the month of July.  On an annual basis at least 1/3 of the



water is used for non-sewered purposes.

      Other measures of the effects of seasonal use are  portrayed  in

 Figure 2, "Typical Water Use Patterns of Selected Willamette  River Basin

 Communities" and Figure 3, "Monthly Municipal Water Consumption Character-

 istics - Willamette River Basin".

      As might be expected, daily water use is high on exceptionally  hot

 days, after prolonged drought and  high temperature and  on normal  weekends.

 Demand drops appreciably on non-work holidays, both from plant shutdown

 and people leaving home for the day or long weekend. Demand  also drops

 after precipitation, even if only  negligible, and after a drop in tempera-

ture following an unusually warm succession of days.

     Projection of  future demands has been based upon the growth pattern

of cities  of  the size class that the subject community will have reached

by the  target year.  This has been done in an attempt to allow for the

changes which will  occur in all but "bedroom" communities during their

growth.  Changes will include more green areas, more water-using industries

and commercial establishments, and new housing.  The monthly use patterns

for communities of  various sizes are illustrated by Figure 3.

     The effects of rainfall distribution on water demand is best  shown

by Figure 4, "Lawn Water Requirement and Mean Rainfall in Portland,

Oregon"." Even though the mean annual rainfall is in excess  of 37  inches,

the weekly deficit during the summer is 12.6 inches.   Assuming average

yard and green areas of only 5,000 square feet,  this amounts to about

80 gallons per capita per day.

     The combined effects of high summer demand and low summer stream


flow may be portrayed by comparing the demand and stream flow patterns.


Figure 5, "Mean Stream Flow Distribution at Salem, Oregon and Typical


Water Demand Pattern" shows that the period of high demand coincides


with periods of low flow.

Explanation of Curves

     The  I960 curve is the mean curve  for  all Willamette Basin communities
with good records.   If the points were shown, there would be a wide  spread
between the maximum and minimum values.  It is assumed, for the sake of
the projection, that all communities and cities will grow as average cities
since  the variables that will contribute to deveation may not be  forecast.

     If a city of 8,000 persons in  1960 used about 170 gallons per capita
per day  (or 1.36 MGD) grew to 10,000 persons in 1985, water would be used at
the rate  of 190 gallons per capita  per day (or 1.9 MGD).  If circumstances
caused this city to require more water or  to be above average, another city
would  be  below average and balance  the situation.

                                                                     14



which include filter back washing and system losses as well as domestic,




commercial and industrial, public institutional, and unaccountable use.




The projected rates allow for community growth, including normal




industrial-commercial expansion, new homes with large planted areas, new




schools and other public buildings with increased summer irrigation




requirements, and an increase in water-using home appliances.  The rate




has been projected to increase at an average rate of 0.5 percent annually




from 1960 to 1985 and 0.2 percent annually from 1985 to year 2010.  The




per capita consumption rate of a given community will change in two ways.




As the community grows the per capita demand rate increases to allow for




the change in the character of the community and also by the annual




per centage rate of increase.




     The projected rates are not used for the "bedroom" communities




surrounding Portland, because they do not support the normal distribution




of water-using commercial and industrial establishments.




     Inasmuch as the rates presented are averages, they may not be used




as final design criteria for a specific system with relation to a




particular source.






E.  Quality of Water for Municipal and Industrial Purposes




     The quality of surface water within the Willamette River Basin may




be generally described as good.   The primary deleterious constituents  of




the surface water supplies that must be removed or treated  are sediment,




taste and odor producing biological growths, and bacteria.

-------
                                                                         15





     Sediment occurs in appreciable amounts in nearly every surface stream




during periods of high runoff.  Methods of control include sedimentation




in reservoirs, flocculation and sedimentation, filtration, clarification,




and combinations of the foregoing.  There are also communities that do




not specifically treat for sediment removal in any manner.




     Control of obnoxious tastes and odors from biological organisms is




also handled in a variety of manners.  The City of McMinnville uses




activated carbon and chemicals in their source impoundment.   The City of




Corvallis has experienced an increasing taste and odor problem from their




Willamette River source, and the occurrence of certain algae  in upstream




impoundments has been labeled as the cause.   Remedial treatment at the




plant by super chlorination and addition of activated carbon has been used.




     Bacterial pollution of nearly all surface water sources is treated




by disinfection, primarily by chlorination,  and in some cases by




filtration as well as chlorination.   Such disinfection is practiced both




as a precautionary and as a remedial measure.  The present trend indicates




that filtration will eventually be required by the Oregon State Board




of Health on all surface supplies except perhaps those in exceptionally




well protected watersheds.




     The mineral quality of water shown in Tables I,  II and  III for the




cities of Portland, Salem and Eugene is typical of the major surface water




supplies.  Some specific uses of this water requires  additional treatment.




An example of additional treatment is boiler feed water conditioning;




nearly all high temperature and high pressure boilers require feed water




with scale and corrosion inhibitors  added.

     Ground water  is of  importance in the basin, but the quality frequently

reduces  the desirability of such a source.  Hardness, salinity and iron-content

are among  those properties which have prevented extensive use of ground

water  in some areas.

     The mineral water quality for the selected communities with ground

water  supplies is  listed in Table IV.  The recommended limit most commonly

exceeded is for iron content.  Excessive iron content is liable to

impart tastes to beverages and cause staining in laundering and in fixtures.

There  is no significant toxological hazard from the excessive iron content.

     The recommended manganese level is also exceeded but again the

danger is  economic andaesthetic, with staining the primary effect.   There

have not been any cases of neurologic effects on man resulting from oral

ingestion  of water with a manganese content above the recommended limit.—'


F.  Municipal Water Facility Treatment Practices

     The treatment afforded water prior to distribution by municipal

water facilities is determined by the requirements of the Oregon State

Board of Health and the desires of the consumer.  In some instances treatment

is provided to assure production of water of a satisfactory quality to

meet the USPHS requirements as an interstate watering point, as well as to

satisfy  state requirements.

     Table V provides a summary of treatment practiced in the Willamette

River Basin. Recommended improvements to present systems include disin-

fection of all sources  and  filtration of most of the surface supplies.

Some communities without filtration plants have turbid water in the

distribution system whenever the streams are turbid.   Filtration also

reduces the possibility of bacterial contamination of the source being

carried into the distribution system.  There are a few facilities that

provide for mineral removal; however, this is the exception and they

are not listed.  Individual softeners are used in some areas.   In some

parts of the City of Lake Oswego softeners are used at a monthly cost

of about $6.00.

     It is expected that all surface water supplies will receive complete

treatment by 1985.  Well managed and protected watershed sources may be

excepted.  The treatment trends for ground water will show an increase

of the number of facilities that provide chlorination.


G.  The Cost of Water

     Apparent costs of water vary according to the accounting procedure

of the various agencies; however, several examples are given.

     The City of Portland has experienced an increase of costs during the

past eleven years that has essentially doubled the cost of delivered water.

System improvements which benefit the user make up a substantial share of

the increase.  Increased source, transmission, and distribution storage

capacity make it possible to provide better service, less danger of summer

rationing and improved fire protection.

     Addition of a complete treatment facility to the existing Portland




system would increase the cost of water approximately $40/MG.




     The City of Salem has a system of the same general nature as




Portland, only they have not constructed upstream storage.  The cost




per million gallons sold in Salem was $119.59 in 1961 and $119.45 in




1962.  In 1954 the cost per million gallons sold was $106.60.   New




facility construction and increased operations cost can be identified




as the reason for the increase of about 11%.




     The City of Corvallis operates two complete treatment plants.




One of which is located on the Willamette River and used only  during




the summer months.  The full time plant is located on Marys Peak, west




of Corvallis, and utilizes natural flow and stored water in the Marys




Peak watershed.  The total cost of delivered water was $154.50 per




million gallons during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1959.  Treatment




costs accounted for $41.00 per MG of the total.  At Adair Air  Force



Station near Corvallis the total cost of $176.91 per million gallons




during 1960 included full time use of a treatment plant using  Willamette




River water.




     The City of Eugene operates a complete treatment plant at Hayden




Bridge on the McKenzie River.  ,The total cost of water has increased




from $92.30 per million gallons in 1950 to $139 per million gallons




delivered in 1960.




     No conclusions may be drawn from this limited data except that




costs are rising and storage of mountain watershed water to avoid




treatment of nearby water may not be the least expensive alternate.

H.  Present and Future Use and Supply




     Table VI presents present and projected populations as well as average




annual and peak month average water demands for Willamette River Basin




water service areas.  Areas having more than one source and distribution




system are treated as a single service area with no attempt being made to




project the individual systems requirements.




H-l.  Sub-basin Discussion




     1.  Upper Portion of the Willamette River Basin




         Main Stem Willamette River Sub-basin (1-A)




         The major water use area in this sub-basin, the Eugene-Springfield




Urban Area utilizes ground water from the McKenzie and Middle Fork Willamette




River Sub-basins and surface water from the McKenzie River.   No major use




of the main stem of the Willamette River for municipal purposes in the




Eugene-Springfield area is foreseen.




         The other communities in the sub-basin rely upon ground water to




satisfy their demands.  Their future municipal demands will  undoubtedly be




satisfied from ground water.




         Coast Fork Willamette River Sub-basin (2)




         The supply of water within the basin appears to be  adequate  to




satisfy future demands.  The City of Cottage Grove relies upon flow from




several watershed streams and provides flocculation, sedimentation and




disinfection for treatment at the town end of the 23-mile transmission




conduit as well as disinfection at the headworks end.  Ground water is




the source for Creswell and will continue as the source.

-------
                                                                        25




         Middle Fork Willamette River Sub-basin (3)




         The major water use area within this sub-basin is in the Oakridge




area.  There is ample water to satisfy future municipal requirements in




this area.




         The community of Lowell takes water from the river in the Dexter




Reregulation Pool through an infiltration gallery.  The pool is used




extensively for recreation.




         The water supply within the sub-basin is adequate for sub-basin




requirements.




         McKenzie River Sub-basin (4)




         The supply of water within the sub-basin is adequate to satisfy




foreseeable demands of sub-basin communities.  The McKenzie River also




is the primary source for the Eugene-Springfield Urban Area.   Approxi-




mately 75% of the annual requirement for the Main Stem Sub-basin service




area is supplied by the Eugene Water and Electric Board from its Hayden




Bridge treatment plant.  The existing resource and the existing and pro- -




posed storage will more than satisfy projected requirements in that area.




The need for storage for municipal purposes will depend upon adjudication




of existing water rights and power claims as well as the future water use




policy of the State of Oregon.




         Long Tom River Sub-basin (5)




         The Long Tom River Sub-basin is not water deficient.   However, the




seasonal variation of the streamflow above Fern Ridge Reservoir and the




apparent quality in the reservoir and downstream have delayed development




of adequate water systems in the sub-basin communities.

-------
                                                                       26






      The community area of Venita-Elmira is in need of a water system.




Three alternates are apparent:  (1) Install a transmission line to Eugene




and purchase water from the Eugene Water and Electric Board.  This has




been contemplated and is presently considered as economically unfeasible.




(2)  Purchase storage space in Fern Ridge Reservoir if possible and treat




water from the reservoir for distribution.  (3)  Construct single-purpose




storage on a watershed stream for low flow period use and a treatment




plant.  A complete detailed study of the area by a consulting firm will




be required before any progress toward a public water system may occur.




   2.  Middle Portion of the Willamette River Basin




       Main Stem Willamette River Sub-basin (1-B)




       The communities in this sub-basin utilize ground water, tributary




streams, and the Willamette River to satisfy their needs.  As previously




stated, the means of satisfying their future requirements is somewhat




dependent upon the results of an adjudication of the Willamette River




and its tributaries.  In all cases, there is sufficient water available




on an annual basis, but the streams presently used as sources do not




always have sufficient summer flow to satisfy the needs.




       The City of Corvallis, after developing a watershed area on Marys




Peak to its limit of economic feasibility, turned to the Willamette River




as the next source.  Water produced from this facility is generally sat-




isfactory, except when the characteristics of the water change faster than




adjustments in treatment techniques may be made.  The City of Salem, which




is also on a bank of the Willamette River, chose to take its water from the




North Santiam River through a 20 mile transmission line.  Complete

-------
                                                                        27




treatment has been temporarily avoided by using this source.  However,




it is reasonable to assume that it will be required eventually.




         The other communities of the sub-basin will satisfy their needs




by storage, long transmission lines, or treatment of available water




as Corvallis and Salem have done.  The solution for each community will




depend upon a detailed study near the time of need.




         Calapooia River Sub-basin (6)




         Upstream storage is the apparent means by which the City of




Brownsville may satisfy their future demands.  It has been necessary to




alter the stream bed during summer periods of low flow in order to




provide sufficient water to flood the cities infiltration gallery.




Other development of water supplies within the basin will have to either




utilize ground water or provide storage for use during periods of low




flow.  Two areas, Sodaville and Holley, are expected to have public




water systems by 1985.




         Santiam River Sub-basin (7)



         The area along the North Ssmtiam River should not experience




any water supply problems nor should the City of Salem, which takes water




from the river through an infiltration gallery.



         The South Santiam River area may experience difficulty in




supplying future demands from natural flow if all existing water rights




and power claims are utilized.   Upstream storage under consideration or




under construction will have storage space which the cities, water companies,




and industries may purchase if existing rights may not be satisfied from




natural flow.

-------
                                                                        28




         Marys River Sub-basin (8)



         Present demands of the sub-basin are served from natural flow




of Marys River and from a watershed on Marys Peak developed by the City




of Corvallis.  Storage for 100 MG has been built, but this will not




satisfy present peak demands during dry years.  The City of Corvallis




has developed an additional source from the Willamette River.   Additional




water supply development in the sub-basin will be dependent upon upstream




storage.  However, most of the populated area is in the lower portion of




the sub-basin and is convenient to the Willamette River as an alternate




source.




         Luckiamute River Sub-basin (9)




         Only minor development has occurred within this sub-basin and




no significant increase of municipal and industrial is projected.  It is




anticipated that the demands will be satisfied from the Luckiamute River




and tributaries, the Willamette River, and ground water.




         Yamhill River Sub-basin  (10)




         The total water resource of the Yamhill River sub-basin is



adequate to satisfy projected demands, but seasonal deficiencies will




make storage or trans-basin diversion necessary.  The largest of the




sub-basin communities, McMinnville, has had storage facilities for some




time in order to satisfy peak summer demands.  This city has also had




alternate sources investigated. There are three major alternatives available:




(1) transmission from the Willamette River, (2) single- or multi-purpose




Yamhill Basin storage, or (3) trans-basin diversion from coastal streams.




A final selection will, no doubt, reflect economic feasibility and aesthetic




preference at the time of decision.

-------
                                                                          29




         Other smaller sub-basin communities are faced with the same




problem on a smaller scale.  It is probable that participation in




proposed upstream multiple purpose storage projects will provide a




satisfactory solution for them.




         Pudding River Sub-basin (11)




         Season deficiencies of sub-basin stream flow have accelerated




the consideration for upstream storage.  Silverton is the largest




community (4,000 served) that relies primarily upon surface water.  The




remainder of the communities rely primarily upon ground water.




         Molalla River Sub-basin (12)




         There is no storage indicated for municipal and industrial




water supply within this sub-basin.




         Clackamas River Sub-basin (13)




         It is probable that the Clackamas River will be heavily used




in the future for municipal water supply.  A complete analysis  of the




resource of this river including adjudication of water rights and power




claims and establishment of base minimum flows should be made.   Deter-



mination of development requirements will not be clear nor will



reliability be established until this is done.




         The water resource of this sub-basin is adequate to satisfy



projected demands, but future seasonal deficiencies and use conflicts




must be overcome.

-------
                                                                          30

         Tualatin River Sub-basin (14)

         The Tualatin River sub-basin relies partially upon water from

other sub-basins for municipal water supply at the present time and it

is expected that a greater demand will be made on out-of-basin sources

in the future. Alternatives available include coastal streams, the

Willamette River, and the Columbia River.  A complete evaluation must

be made of the existing sub-basin resource and demands before a plan

may be developed.  Tualatin sub-basin communities have endorsed the

USER Tualatin Project which recommended storage in the amounts shown in

the tabulation below.

      3.  Lower Portion Main Stem Willamette River Sub-basin

      This  sub-basin is the most densely populated area  in the Willamette

River basin  and also has the greatest demand for water.  The supplies are

many  and varied, but the largest single source has been developed by the

-------
                                                                          31





City of Portland in the Bull Run watershed.  The transmission facility




is composed of three conduits about 25 miles long with a total capacity of




225 MGD.  There is storage for 23,200 MG within the watershed with plans




for an additional 11,150 MG by 1990.  There has also been some planning




for diversion from the Clackamas River sub-basin for future supply.   The




natural quality of the water and watershed management practices have




made it possible to provide satisfactory water for distribution after




treatment by simple chlorination only.




     Other supplies in this sub-basin include ground water and the




Clackamas River.  Complete treatment is required of water from the lower




reaches of the Clackamas River. Alternatives and additional sources include




the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, the Clackamas River, and ground water.




         Sandy River Sub-basin (15)




         The water resources of this sub-basin are adequate for satisfaction




of projected requirements.






I.  Industrial 'Water Supply, Willamette Basin, Oregon




    There are no industries that have located  in the Willamette




Basin solely because of water quality or quantity in recent years.  During




the initial development of the basin industrial sites were picked to take




advantage of water power potential and available supplies for plant




operation.  However, the availability of large quantities of good water




has continued to contribute to the industrial growth of the valley.




Industries that are arbitrarily categorized as wet process industries are




those that require large quantities of water in their particular process.




Pulp and paper plants and food processing plants are the major wet process

-------
                                                                          32




 industries within  the Willamette River Basin.  There are other industries




 that  rely upon water; however,  the amount is not significant on an




 individual basis.




      The only specific industry for which present and projected water




 requirements are stated is the  pulp and paper industry.  The majority




 of  the  food processing plants rely upon municipal systems for their




 supply  and their requirement is an integral part of the projected




 municipal requirement.  Other industries are mentioned, but only to




 show  their existence and their  relationship to the local water supply




 situation.




      The quality of water used  or available for industrial use in the




Willamette Basin may best be described as good.  Various users treat




 the water according to their needs with the degree of treatment ranging



 from  none to complete treatment.  Boiler feed water is nearly always




 conditioned regardless of the source.  The most undesirable characteristic




 of surface water is fluctuation of chemical and physical parameters.




Sediments transported in surface v/ater fluctuate by season and effect




more  of the users than any other physical quality parameter.  The expense




 incurred in coping with the sediments and silts has not been defined.




      Intermittent discharges and accidental spills of strong wastes which




cause a change in chemical quality cause operational problems at




industrial treatment plants.  The costs incurred in coping with changing




chemical parameters has not been determined.




      The most often stated quality requirement by industry is that the




quality remain constant except for seasonal fluctuation.

-------
                                                                       33




     The quantity of water generally assumed to be readily available would




support virtually unlimited industrial development.  However, the actual




available supply for future industrial development is restricted.  Water




for industrial purposes may be limited in several ways.  Many industrial




water rights are of recent vintage and may be reduced by adjudication of




the rights from a stream or may be reduced during an extreme low flow




season.  The State of Oregon may withdraw a portion of the natural flow




of a stream from further appropriation in order to maintain at least a




minimum desirable flow.  From the foregoing, it becomes obvious that




legally stored water will, in at least some areas, be the only reliable




surface source for future industrial requirements.




1-1  Sub-basin Discussion




     The following discussion of industrial water use in each of the




sub-basins of the Willamette River Basin is directed toward the fore-




seeable future.  In no case does this go past the level of development




expected to occur by 1985.




     1.  Uppe r Wi1lame tte Bas in




         Main Stem Upper Willamette River (1-A)




         There are no significant withdrawals of water from the



main stem Upper Willamette River for industrial purposes.  The two largest




users in the City of Eugene, Eugene Fruit Growers and U. S. Plywood, used




175 and 133 million gallons respectively in 1960.  Compared with the total




city system intake from the McKenzie River, the Eugene Fruit Growers used




3.7 percent of the total and U. S. Plywood used 2.8 percent of the total.




Other industrial uses in Eugene include a poultry packing plant, dairies,




creameries, soft drink bottlers, an ice plant, steam plants, custom




canners, and many other small users.  The total commercial-industrial water

-------
                                                                        34




sales in the City of Eugene total about 50 percent of the annual intake,




or nearly 2,250 million gallons annually.




         Coast Fork Willamette (2)




         The largest industrial water user in the sub-basin is the




Weyerhaeuser Timber Company mill at Cottage Grove.  The average intake




is 10 MGD, or 3,650 MG annually.  Water is used primarily for steam




production, hydraulic debarking and log pond filling.  Other industrial




uses include small saw mills and gravel washing.   The existing sub-basin




water supply is adequate in quantity and quality to fulfill projected needs.




         Middle Fork Willamette (3)



         Pope and Talbot, Inc., located near Oakridge, is the major




industry of this sub-basin.  An undetermined amount of water is used




for plant operation in producing lumber, plywood and particle board.




There are other smaller mills in the sub-basin, all of which have  an



adequate water supply.  The water resources of the sub-basin are




adequate in quantity and quality to satisfy all projected industrial




requirements.  A part of the industries in Springfield are supplied with




water from the Pacific Power & Light Company water system.  The water




supplied by PP&L is produced from wells near the river which are artifi-




cially recharged with water from the Middle Fork Willamette River.   The




amount used by industry from PP&L totals approximately 250 MG annually,




or less than one MGD.




         McKenzie River (4)




         The McKenzie River is the source of water for the majority of the




industrial supply in the Eugene urban area.  Most of the industries are

-------
                                                                        35




served  by  city systems or water districts in the Eugene urban area.




About 7 MGD  withdrawn by municipal systems from the McKenzie River is




used for commercial-industrial purposes.




         The largest and only significant demand by a self-supplied




industry is  the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company plant in Springfield.  This




plant is used for production of lumber, plywood, pressed wood products




and pulp.  Current operations require an average x^ithdrawal of 15 MGD,



of which 10  MGD is required for operation of the pulp plant.  The present




capacity of  the pulp plant is 400 tons/day and the anticipated 1985




capacity is  800 tons/day.  The projected total plant water requirement




is 30 MGD.   The company holds a water right for 80 cfs (51 MGD).   The




quantity of  water available in the basin is adequate to satisfy the




foreseeable  requirements of industry.




         The  quality of water is such that the Weyerhaeuser Company treats




only about 6  MGD with an Accelator at the present time.   During periods




of heavy runoff, which results in high turbidity, the solids in the




water cause  excessive wear of the hydraulic debarker nozzles.   It is




presently economical for the company to buy water from the Rainbow Water




District during this period instead of providing more treatment.   Chemically,




the water is  always of satisfactory quality.






     2.   Middle Willamette Basin




         Middle Portion Willamette Main Stem (1-B)




         The  use of water for industrial1 purposes from the middle portion




of the Main  Stem Willamette is primarily for pulp and paper manufacturing.




Other uses include food processing, concrete products manufacturing,  pressed.




wood products manufacturing, and the manufacture of bitumastic pipe.

         Additional water is withdrawn from the Willamette River by the




City of Corvallis and the Adair Air Force station which is ultimately used




for industrial purposes.  The majority of the water provided by the Air




Force station and the City of Corvallis is for food processing.  The




present use in Corvallis by Blue Lake Packers, the major city-supplied




industry, is about 30 MG annually; however, most of this is used between




July and October.




         In the vicinity of Albany, there are two major water users,




Western Kraft Corporation and Wah Chang Corporation.  Unbleached kraft




liner board is produced at the Western Kraft Corporation plant.  Present




process techniques require about 4 MGD to satisfy the requirements for




the ninety ton per day plant.  There is no treatment except for the boiler




feed water in order to control scale and corrosion.  Their existing water




right is for about 20 MGD.  Based upon present State water allocation




policy, the plant apparently will not be hampered by a lack of available



water.




         The second major water-using industry near Albany is the Wah Chang




Corporation, manufacturers of rare metals.  The output of the plant is




not known.  However, the average daily water use is 2.7 MGD, or 100 million




gallons per year.  Treatment has been limited to simple chlorination;



however, turbidity is a wintertime problem.




         The only other major withdrawal of water from the middle portion




of the Willamette River is by the Spaulding Pulp and Paper Company at




Newberg.  The 160 ton per day plant produces unbleached pulp and requires




about 5 MGD for plant operations.  Their existing water right will provide




about 13 MGD and is adequate for the foreseeable future.

-------
                                                                        37



         The quality of the water is controlled by filtration, chlorina-




tion, and deionization.  Their problems are typical of those normally




found, primarily turbidity resulting from transport of silt and other




floating material and changes in chemical quality.  It is also necessary




in this plant to supplant the river supply with City water during the




summer when the river water temperature is higher than desirable for




acid mixing.  This amounts to about 0.1 MGD during August and September.




         Long Tom River (5)




         There is no present or projected significant industrial water




demand in this sub-basin.  There are several small sawmills and a clay




products plant within the basin; however, the use of water is minor.




The Long Tom River is not desirable either as a source of water for




industrial purposes or as a receiving stream for large amounts of




industrial wastes, and it is therefore not a likely location for any




significant industrial development.




         Calapooia River Basin (6)




         There are no present or projected significant industrial uses of




water in this basin.  There are a few saw mills; however, their use is




minor.  The stream is not suitable  for assimilation of large amounts of




industrial wastes and is, therefore, not a likely location for




industrial development.




         Santiam River (7)




         The Santiam sub-basin is most conveniently split into the South,




North and mainstern sub-areas.

-------
                                                                         38



         Present and programmed storage projects in this sub-basin will




offer adequate opportunity for industries to contract for storage for




future use, if required.




         Industrial use of water withdrawn from the South Santiam by




industries occurs in the Lebanon-Sweet Home vicinity.  The major industrial




withdrawal is for the Crown Zellerbach plant at Lebanon.




         Crown Zellerbach operates a 90 ton per day sulphite process pulp




and paper mill at Lebanon which requires about 7 MGD of water.   The water




is withdrawn from a canal which is a diversion from the South Santiam




River above Lebanon.  Future expansion of this plant is assumed to be




minimal and the water supply for the foreseeable future is assumed to be




adequate.  The ultimate supply available will depend upon adjudication



results and future State water policy.




         The next largest user is Cascade Plywood Corporation at Lebanon



which requires about 2 MGD.   No shortage is foreseen.




         There are other minor uses which are both self-supplied and




supplied by the Sweet Home or Lebanon municipal water systems.




         There is no appreciable industrial use of water along  the




North Santiam River.  However, the Columbia River Paper Division of the




Boise Cascade Corporation diverts water from the North Santiam through




a canal to their Salem Mill.




         The Columbia River Paper Division operates a 150 ton per day




sulphite pulp and fine paper mill on the bank of the Willamette River in




Salem.  Approximately 16 MGD of water diverted from the North Santiam River




is used daily.  The water requires complete treatment prior to use.   The

-------
                                                                        39





paper mill shares in a right for 254 cfs (164 MGD) diversion from the




North Santiam River for power and manufacturing purposes dated 1856 and




subject only to a prior right of 50 cfs for the State Game Commission.




The mill also shares in a 342.6 cfs right from Mill Creek which is subject




to about 230 cfs of prior appropriation, and may not be satisfied during




the summer.  It is therefore assumed that sufficient water to meet fore-




seeable needs is available.




         A portion of the water diverted by the City of Salem is also




used for industrial purposes.  Food processing is the major user with an




annual average of about 1.5 MGD with 5 MGD peaks during the canning



season.




         There is no significant present or foreseeable industrial demand




made upon the waters of the Main Stem Santiam River.




         Marys River (8)




         The only industrial use, existing or foreseen, made of water




from the Marys River is for small saw mills.  Any significant increase




in industrial utilization of water within the sub-basin would be




dependent upon either storage or trans-basin diversion.




         Luckiamute River (9)




         The existing and foreseeable industrial use of water in the




Luckiamute sub-basin is minor.   However, any major demands would best




be satisfied from stored water.




         Yamhill River (10)




         Industrial use of water within the Yamhill sub-basin is presently




limited primarily to a few saw mills, a plywood mill at Willamina and




several industries using city water in McMinnville.  No significant

-------
                                                                        40




industrial supply is available without storage or trans-basin diversion.




No appreciable increase in self-supplied industrial water demand is




projected for the foreseeable future.




         Pudding River (11)




         There is no present or projected major industrial water



supply demand within the Pudding River sub-basin in the foreseeable




future.  The largest single user, Birdseye Frozen Foods at Woodburn,




relies upon ground water for its supply.   This company was using about




2 MGD in 1961 and has since increased its use and supply.   Ground water




is satisfactory for the foreseeable future as its supply.




         Mola1la River (12)




         Industrial use of water in this  sub-basin is minor and is




presently limited primarily to saw mill type operations.   Most of that




used is purchased from the City of Molalla.  There is no foreseen




demand for industrial process water in the area.   However, any large




demands would most probably have to be satisfied from storage.






     3.  Lower Main Stem Willamette River




     Industrial utilization of water from the Lower Main Stem Willamette




River is primarily for pulp and paper production at Oregon City.




     At the Oregon City Fails, Publisher  Paper Company operates a mill



of 400 tons per day capacity.  The mill requires  approximately 30 MGD




for sulphite and ground wood processing.   About one-haIf,  or 15 MGD,




is given complete treatment at a total cost of about $33 per million




gallons and used as process water.  The remaining 15 MGD is used for




non-process purposes such as flumes and the like.  An additional quantity

-------
                                                                         41


of water is used non-consumptively for power generation.  The mill's

right to use water in this manner dates prior to 1842 for 822 cfs.

Based on projected expansion and present water policy, the mill should

not experience a water shortage.

     Crown Zellerbach operates a 600 ton per day plant at West Linn

which is also at the Oregon City falls across the river from the

Publishers Paper mill.  The mill produces newsprint and printing paper

from sulphite and ground wood processes.  The water requirements are

met by treating approximately 20 MSD of water from the river.  The direct

cost for treatment (chemicals and labor) is about $17.65 per million

gallons.

     Other uses of this portion of the basin are individually smaller

in quantity.1  However, they are important to the basic economy.  In

some instances, it is more economical to purchase water from a municipal

system for boiler use than to treat river water.  Silt also poses

a problem for boiler use in the lower reach of the river.   The furthest

downstream right is the Pennsylvania Salt Company's right for 8.90 cfs

near the St. Johns Bridge in Portland.

     A tremendous amount of ground water is used for industrial purposes

in the area along the lower reach of the main stem Willamette River.

The uses include heating and cooling, process water in food and kindred

plants, fabricating plants, concrete plants and a host of other uses.

It is impractical to attempt to determine a total, if not impossible,

of the annual withdrawal.  In 1959 there were over 500 wells listed in

East Portland.   The capacity of these wells was over 82 MGD.  The portion

used  is unknown.  The present State policy has not restricted use in




this  area.  However, it is reasonable to assume that restriction intended




to maintain the ground water in a sufficient quantity and quality for




beneficial uses will eventually be proposed.




         Clackamas River (13)



         Only minor use is made of water in the Clackamas River sub-basin




for industrial purposes.  Although there is no significant industrial




use projected within the area, water in appreciable quantity would most




probably be available only from storage or trans-basin diversion.




         Tualatin River (14)




         The effects of a shortage of water for industrial purposes have




been  felt in the Tualatin River sub-basin.   One food processor moved




to another area for a combination of reasons; the lack of additional




water is alleged to have been one of the reasons.




         The existing surface water sources within the sub-basin are




presently appropriated to the limit.  Further surface water utilization




is possible only with storage and/or trans-basin diversion.   A local




committee stated at an Oregon State Water Resources Board public hearing




that  an additional 900 acre-feet will be required annually for food




processing by 1975.  It is reasonable to predict that an additional




1,000 acre-feet would be utilized, if available, by 1985.  The present




pattern of industrial water use within the  sub-basin indicates that the




need  will be satisfied by municipal systems.



         No major water-using industry is projected for location in the




Tualatin River sub-basin and, therefore, water requirements  for that




purpose are not stated.

-------
                                                                         43
         Lower Columbia River in Portland Vicinity and Sandy River
         Sub-basin (15)
         The largest water user in the area of concern is Reynolds Metals

Company at Troutdale.  The plant is supplied by fourteen wells with an

annual available yield of four billion gallons.  During 1962, 2.4 billion

gallons of water were used.   The plant was not operating at full capacity;

however, the water requirement does not vary directly with production.

The majority of the water, 75-80 percent, is used for fume washing or

scrubbing.  The remainder is used for various purposes such as cooling

bearings, casting, clean up, etc.

         There are other industrial uses of water in the area.   However,

they are individually smaller and are able to satisfy their needs from

public water supplies, ground water, or are close enough to the Columbia

River to consider it as an alternate source.  The projected industrial-

ization of the area should not be short of water in the foreseeable

future.

Upper tributary streams of the Coast Fork Willamette River
are utilized by the city. (WR=9.7 MGD). Chlorine is added
at the headworks of the 23 mile transmission conduit in
order to provide service along the conduit. Treatment at
the town end is limited to disinfection, f locculation, and
sedimentation. Additional transmission capacity and
filtration will be required in the future.
Water is obtained from wells. Additional capacity will be
required by 1985 for 0.4 MGD. Wells are the most likely
source. Surface alternates include Coast Fork Willamette
River and small tributary streams and springs.




Water is taken from the Middle Fork Willamette R. through
an infiltration gallery in the Dexter reregulation pool
(surface water right, 0.65 MGD). Increased recreational
                                                 use of the river and dam pools  may make complete  treatment
                                                 necessary by 1985.   Sufficient  flow is present for future
                                                 use;  additional water right  for 0.2 MGD needed by 1985.

                 There is  not a public  system at  the  present; however, one
                 would be  expected prior to  1985.  Ground water  development
                 is not probable.   Streamflows  in the area  frequently are
                 zero during summer months.  New  single  purpose  storage  or
                 purchase  of water from the  C of  E Fern  Ridge Reservoir  are
                 alternates  to purchasing water from  the City of Eugene.
                 A water right for 2 MGD, stream  storage for 100 MG, and
                 treatment for 1.5 MGD  will  be  needed to satisfy projected
                 1985 requirements if a single  purpose development  is to
                 be constructed.

                 The present source on  Muddy Creek tributaries has  a 0.23
                 MGD water right.   Further development of the existing source
                 or treatment of Long Tom River water as an alternate supply
                 is needed by 1985 in the amount  of 0.5  MGD.  A  total of
                 2 MGD to  satisfy peak  demands  will be required  by  2010.

0.1     Idanha relies upon Idanha Creek as its water supply.   The
0.1     existing source and 1.77 MGD water right is  adequate  to
0.2     satisfy projected 1985 requirements.

0.2     Three wells with ground water rights  for 0.5 MGD provide the
0.7     present supply of water for the system.   Additional capacity
1.1     of 0.35 MGD, from wells, will be required to meet projected
        1985 demands.

2.1     Pacific Power & Light Co. serves water in this area.   The
4.0     water is taken from the South Santiam R. through the  Lebanon-
7.2     Albany power canal without a municipal water right.  The
        right for such use was established prior to  the establishment
        of the State Water Laws.  Future rights will depend upon
        adjudication of the river.  The existing source is adequate
        to satisfy projected demands.  A 5 MGD treatment plant may
        be required prior to 1985 to meet demands of that period.

0.1     Lyons receives water from an infiltration well in the North
0.3     Santiam River.  The water is withdrawn under a 0.775  MGD
0.7     surface water  right.  The existing source and  right will
        satisfy projected  1985  demands.

0.2     The city withdraws water from the N.  Santiam R. through an
1.0     infiltration gallery under a 1.15 MGD surface water right.
1.5     An additional right for 0.5 MGD will  be required to satisfy
        1985 demands.

Scio relies upon wells with ground water rights of 1.71 MGD
and an auxiliary source in Thomas Creek with a 0.65 MGD
surface water right. Existing sources and rights will satisfy
projected 1985 requirements.
The Scravel Hill Water Co-op, utilizes a well for their supply.
Ground water will satisfy their projected requirements
through 1985.
The city operates an infiltration well with ground water
rights for 3.7 MGD. The existing source and water right
will satisfy projected 1985 demands.
The City of Sweet Home provides complete treatment of water
from the South Santiam River and has surface water rights for
4.9 MGD. The source and rights are adequate for the projected
1985 requirement. About 1.5 MGD additional treatment plant
capacity will be required by 1985.
It is expected that a water system will be in operation in
this area by 1985. Ground water development and rights are
assumed to satisfy the projected 1985 requirements. Develop-
ment should be 0.15 MGD.

                 Falls City satisfies their present requirements  from a  0.65
                 MGD water right on Teal Creek and from springs.   Projected
                 1985 requirements may be satisfied from the present source
                 with an additional 0.20 MGD water right.
                 Amity utilizes springs and a deep well for its  water supply
                 with surface and ground water rights of 0.47  and 0.29 MGD,
                 respectively.  Projected 1985 requirements may  be met by
                 existing sources.

                 Carlton uses Panther Creek as its water source  and has a
                 0.3 MGD water right.  Additional water to satisfy the pro-
                 jected 1985 demand would require an additional  water right
                 of 0.5 MGD and 90 MG stream storage.

                 Dayton utilizes wells and springs with surface  and ground
                 water rights of 0.32 and 0.87 MGD, respectively.  Existing
                 sources will satisfy projected 1985 demands.

                 The existing source, ground water, will satisfy the projected
                 1985 requirements.

Existing source is adequate in quantity to supply 1985
projected requirements.  Treatment for 0.15 MGD will be
required by 1985.

A ground water supplied system is expected to exist in this
location by 1985.  Well capacity of 0.15 MGD is recommended
to supply projected 1985 needs.

The city has combined rights for 1 MGD from springs and a
well.  The system only yields 0.1 MGD.  Additional well
capacity of 0.3 MGD is recommended to satisfy projected
1985 requirements.

According to a 1960 consultant's report the city has devel-
oped the Haskins Creek source to the economic limit, except
for transmission.  The July-October 4-month1s capacity is
described as 435 MG.  The projected July-October demand is
400 MG and would be satisfied by the existing source.
Consideration for future expanded requirements has been
directed towards storage and trans-basin diversion from the
Nestucca River, a coastal stream.  Consideration is also
being given to the Willamette River as an alternate source.
Storage on the S. Yamhill R. is also an alternate, but not
actively considered.  Treatment for 6 MGD is an expected
requirement by 1985.

Sheridan utilizes springs as a water supply.   Present reliable
capacity is about 0.4 MGD.  Projected 1985 demands exceed the
annual supply of 146 MG by 60 MG.  The peak 7-day demand
exceeds the supply by 0.8 MGD.  The projected 2010 demand,
281 MG, exceeds the supply by 135 MG annually.  Alternate sources
include additional springs, the S. Yamhill R. or tributary
storage.  The city has expressed interest in the USBR proposed
Gorge Reservoir.  Treatment for 1.5 MGD will be required for
surface water utilization.

Willamina has adequate water rights, 2 MGD, to satisfy the
projected 1985 requirements.  One right 0.65 MGD is dated 1909
and would be prior to most rights in the Yamhill River system.

Yamhill has a 0.8 MGD water right and a 0.4 MGD system on
Lady Creek.  The right and source are adequate to satisfy the
projected 1985 demand.

Two wells satisfy present requirements. Ground water will
satisfy projected 1985 requirements.

Ground water from two wells, 0.36 MGD capacity, satisfies
present requirements. Projected 1985 requirements will be
met from ground water.
Present and projected 1985 requirements will be satisfied
from the ground water resource. Present capacity is 0.3 MGD.
Additional 0.1 MGD capacity will be needed by 1985.
Mt. Angel has ground water rights totalling 1.8 MGD and wells
with a capacity of 0.7 MGD. Additional well capacity of 1.1
MGD will be required to meet projected 1985 demands.
Wells and springs are used to supply water to Scotts Mills.
The city has a 0.16 MGD water right on Butte Creek which
with treatment will supply its projected 1985 peak demand of
0.15 MGD. Seasonal deficiencies are now experienced.
Silverton's system has an existing capacity of 4.65 MGD and
surface and ground water rights of 9.7 and 0.7 MGD, respect-
ively. Additional water may come from storage on Silver
                                                 Creek.   Storage of 32 MG will be needed by 1985 to satisfy
                                                 peak demands during periods of low streamflow.

The city has 6 wells and is also connected with a well in the
Woodburn Senior Estates for a total capacity of 4 MGD.  Ground
water rights total 3 MGD.  The projected 1985 demand may be met
from ground water.  Additional capacity of 2.7 MGD will be
required.  Short-term deficiencies are now experienced because
of high hourly demands.  Birds Eye Frozen Foods is a large
water user but is self-supplied.
                                                 Canby has  developed  1.5 MGD well capacity from ground water rights
                                                 of 2.5 MGD.   Projected 1985 requirements may be met from ground
                                                 water.  Additional development  of  1.8 MGD will be required.

                                                 An inadequate system which cannot  supply summer demands uses
                                                 water from a  creek.  Sufficient water is available to supply the
                                                 projected  1985 demands.  However,  a satisfactory system must
                                                 be built.

                                                 The city takes water from the Molalla River through an infiltra-
                                                 tion gallery  with a  pumping capacity of 1.3 MGD.  The surface
                                                 water right is for 4.5 MGD.  The source is adequate to satisfy
                                                 projected  1985 demands with the addition of treatment for  2.5 MGD.

                                                 The Mulino area is served from  wells and springs having a  combined
                                                 capacity of 0.19 MGD.  Additional  capacity of 0.65 MGD from wells
                                                 will be  required by  1985 to meet projected demands.

Forest Grove has a system with a 6.53 MGD water right and
4 MGD capacity which may be reduced to 1.5 MGD during dry
periods. Assuming a critical period from mid- June to mid-
October storage of 775 MG will be required to meet projected
demands. Additional treatment facilities for 7 MGD is indicated.
The city has expressed an interest in the USBR Scoggins Creek
Project and in single purpose diversion from coastal streams.
Hillsboro takes water from Seine Creek and the Tualatin River
to supply the city, and whole or partial supplies to Cornelius,
Gaston and the Aloha-Huber Water District. Water rights total
                                                9 MGD and July-October critical supply is 370 MG.  Storage for
                                                1,500 MG will be required to meet projected 1985 demands.
                                                Treatment capacity of 25 MGD will be required to meet peak demands.

                         of Water Works, has made plans to develop the Bull Run water-
                         shed  to provide an annual average of 185 MGD with 7-day peaks
                         of 425 MGD.  The supply is adequate to supply projected 1985
                         demands.   The City of Portland and the U.S. Forest Service
                         control the entire watershed and essentially all of the flow.
                         Future plans include storage on the Little Sandy River and
                         diversion  to the Bull Run system.  Industrial use of the
                         present supply accounts for only about 1/5 of the annual sales.

The surface water right of 2.6 MGD on the Clackamas River and
ground water rights of 2.6 MGD will satisfy projected 1985
demands .
The city uses ground water with rights for 1.8 MGD. Satisfaction
of projected 1985 demands will require an additional 6 MGD well
capacity and rights.
New districts and expansion of small districts will account for
this projected demand. It is anticipated that this will be
satisfied primarily from wells.

Tualatin uses ground water from two wells to satisfy the needs

ments will be satisfied from ground water. Additional ground
water of 0.1 MGD will be required.
It is assumed that many small water districts will be formed
to supply water to this growing portion of the urban population.
Most all of them will satisfy their 1985 requirements from
                                                 ground water.  A  few of  them will undoubtedly connect to
                                                 existing  systems  with adequate water available to satisfy their
                                                 requirements.  Ground water development of 15 MGD will be
                                                 required.
