In the Missouri River Basin a value of 002 was chosen for the alluvial deposits of the Missouri River mainstem based on the value shown on a map of specific yield by Bayne and Ward (1969). A value of 001 was used for the alluvial deposits of the tributaries to the Missouri River based on the same mapo A value of 0015 was used for the alluvial deposits in the Neosho, Verdigris and Walnut river basinS based on values used by Morton and Fader (1975) and Fader and Morton (1975b and 1975a), respectivelyo A value of 001 was used for the alluvial deposits in the Marais des Cygnes River Basin based on the map of Bayne and Ward (1969)0 In the Solomon River Basin a value of 002 was used for the north and south forks of the Solomon River and a value of 0015 was used below their confluence, based on values shown on a map of specific yield by Bayne and Ward (1969). . In the Smoky Hill-Saline River Basin a value of 0.15 was chosen for alluvial deposits of the mainstem streams based on a specific yield map of Bayne and Ward (1969)0 A value of 001 was used for the alluvial deposits of the tributaries to the Smoky Hill River below the Solomon River based on the map of Bayne and Ward (1969) and hydrologic jUdgment that tributaries should have lower specific yields than the mainstem streamo Except for the alluvial deposit in bheArkansas River Valley in Hamilton and Kearny counties, a value of 0015 was chosen for the alluvial deposits in the Cimarron and Upper and Lower Arkansas river basins based on the values used by Bayne and Ward (1969) and Fader and Morton (1975a), respectively. Values of 0015 and 002 were used for the alluvial deposits in the Arkansas River Valley in Hamilton and Kearny counties based on values in Barker and others (1983)0 Glacial Aquifers In the Kansas-Lower Republican River Basin a value of 0015 was chosen for all glacial deposits, with the exception of those in the Lower Republican River Basin, based on aqUifer tests reported in Reed and Burnett (1985) 0 A value of 002 was chosen for the glacial deposits of the Lower Republican River Basin based on the value used by Fader (1968) and shown on a map of specific yield by Bayne and Ward (1969)0 High Plains Aquifer Areas within the High Plains Aquifer were assigned specific yield values of 0005, 0015 and 0.2 based on a map by Stullken and others (1985) showing areas of three ranges of specific yield (0- 0.1, 001-0.2 and 002-0025) for the High Plains Aquifero 10
