Abstract
The principal map show geologic structures and lineaments that indicate fracture traces in sedimentary rocks in all or parts of Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. Fractures associated with geologic structures and lineaments may affect the potential fracture permeability of consolidated rocks. Divisions indicating differences in the potential fracture permeability are delineated on the map.
