TITLE: Virgin River survey of irrigated lands
DATES: c. 1910.
ARRANGEMENT: according to sections and according to diversion channels.

DESCRIPTION: While there are no dates on these books, they appear to be companions to the Virgin River Hydrographic Record of 1910. In 1909 the Legislature authorized the State Engineer to make hydrographic surveys of each stream system or water source within the state. Book A, provides information about irrigation on a township, range and section basis. For each location, it indicates water rights owners in that section, describes the watersource, and the number of acres both owned and irrigated. Book B provides the same information, but is organized according to the name of a ditch or diversion channel. A separate volume contains a name index to the entries in Book B.
