  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Washington: A Guide to Geothermal Energy Development Author: Bloomquist, R.G. Year: 1980 A brief overview is given of the geological characteristics of each region of the state as they relate to potential geothermal development. Those exploration methods which can lead to the siting of a deep exploration well are described. Requirements and techniques needed for drilling deeper higher temperature exploration and production wells are presented. Electrical generation, direct utilization, and indirect utilization are reviewed. Economic factors of direct use projects are presented. A general guide to the regulatory framework affecting geothermal energy development is provided. The general steps necessary to gain access to explore, develop, distribute, and use geothermal resources are outlined (MHR) Title: Washington: A Guide to Geothermal Energy Development Author: Bloomquist, R.G.
