      note = {This report presents information concerning the water and  related land resources of the Middle Willamette River Basin  and is the result of a cooperative study by the U. S.  Department of Agriculture and the State Water Resources  Board of Oregon.  Upon request of the State Water Resources  Board, the U. S. Department of Agriculture cooperated in  this survey under the provisions of section 6 of the  Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act (Public Law  566, 83rd Congress, as amended).},
      abstract = {Excerpts from the report:  The Middle Willamette River  Basin is located in the northern portion of western Oregon  and includes the Willamette River and its tributaries from  approximately river mile 32.7 to river mile 145.8 (fig. 1).   The basin is bounded on the north and south by the Lower  Willamette and Upper Willamette Basins, respectively,  bounded on the west by the North Coast and Mid Coast  Basins, and bounded on the east by the Deschutes Basin.   The basin has a total area of about 5,426 square miles,  about 45 percent of the entire Willamette River Basin area  and about 5.6 percent of the total area of Oregon.  The  basin includes a major portion of five counties - Benton,  Linn, Marion, Polk, and Yamhill - and a minor portion of  five counties - Clackamas, Lane, Lincoln, Tillamook, and  Washington.  The broad objectives of the cooperative survey  were to gather basic information pertinent to the use and  control of water for agriculture in the area, to highlight  such major water related problems as erosion, flood  prevention, and drainage, and to outline a general program  for water and related land resource management to be used  as a background for future detailed study and planning.},
