Rita Whitney 1994 The U.S. Geological Survey collected and analyzed water samples from June 1987 through February 1990 as part of a study of the ground-water quality in the Carson River Basin. The Carson River Basin is one of seven national pilot projects conducted by the Geological Survey as part of a National Water-Quality Assessment Program. The data from the sampling program include analyses of 110 different constituents and properties of ground water in 400 separate samplings of 230 domestic, public-supply, irrigation, and shallow monitoring wells and one spring. The water-quality data include: field measurements, major constituents, nutrients, minor constituents, radionuclides, stable isotopes, and synthetic organic compounds. application/pdf 10.3133/ofr9439 en U.S. Geological Survey ; USGS Earth Science Information Center, Open-File Reports Section [distributor], Data on ground-water quality in the Carson River basin, western Nevada and eastern California, 1987-90 reports
