A large part of western Alaska has been included in a uranium- thorium metallogenic province (Clark and others, 1974; Miller and Bunker, 1976; Miller, 1976) chiefly because of the occurrence of uraniferous plutonic rocks with local concentrations of uranium minerals. Recently, however, anomalous amounts of uranium and thorium have been found by the Geological Survey in volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks near the headwaters of the West Fork of the Buckland River in the central Candle quadrangle (fig. 1). This occurrence is apparently in a different geologic environment than previously noted uranium occurrences in western Alaska. An increase in radioactivity was noted in this general area and three airborne gamma-ray survey traverses, done as part of an ERDA-sponsored reconnaissance survey of western Alaska, cross the area (figs. 1, 2) and confirm the existence of a radioactivity anomaly (U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration, 1975, report GJO-1653).

Most of the measurements were made in January 1977; a few were made in December 1976 and in February 1977. The measurements were made in mid-winter when pumping was minimal and water levels had recovered from the effects of pumping during the previous irrigation season. This report also contains basic hydrologic data for 1950-77 that are provided for consideration in relation to the January 1977 water-level measurements.
The annual water-level measurements are made by personnel of the Division of Water Resources of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture and of the U.S. Geological Survey. State-agency support for this program is provided through the Kansas Geological Survey.
Wells in this report are numbered according to the Bureau of Land Management's system of land subdivision. In this system, the first set of digits of a well number indicates the township; the second set, the range east or west of the sixth prinicipal meridian; and the third set, the section in which the well is situated. The first letter denotes the 160-acre tract, the second, the 40-acre tract, and the third, the 10-acre tract. The letters are designated in a counterclockwise direction beginning in the northeast quarter of the section. Where there is more than one well in a 10-acre tract, consecutive numbers, beginning with \"2\", are added in the order in which the wells are inventoried.
The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the implementation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of. \"The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944\" and \"Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act\" (Public Law 566), as amended. The Soil Conservation Service has found a total of approximately 3,500 floodwater~retarding structures to be physically and economically feasible in Texas. As of September 30, 1975, 1,680 of these structures had been built.

While over 90 percent of the pluton consists of granodiorite with average contents of uranium and thorium, zones of porphyritic to gneissic monzonite along the southern and eastern margins of the pluton (fig. 1) contain as much as 100 ppm (parts per million) uranium and 269 ppm thorium (Staatz and Miller, 1976; table 1, this report). This report presents information obtained in 1976 on the relationship of the uraniferous monzonite to the granodiorite and on uranium enrichment outside the pluton as part of an on-going study of the area.

High-gradient channels, which generally exhibit low variability for most factors influencing the width-discharge relation, were selected to define a standard exponent in the power-function equation. Regression analysis of silt-clay channels of Kansas gave an exponent similar to that determined for high-gradient streams, thus supporting the use of a standard exponent.
To account for the effect of sediment on channel morphology, silt-clay percentages of bed and bank material from 98 perennial streams of the western and midwestern United States were introduced into the standard width-discharge relations. Bed and bank cohesiveness, as indicated by silt-clay content, is considered a measure of channel resistance to erosion. Multiple-regression analysis of data limited to Kansas streams yielded an equation more typical of stable conditions than that of the larger area, because widespread destructive flooding and channel widening have not occurred in Kansas recently. The regression equations provide refinement to the channel-geometry technique of estimating discharge characteristics of ungaged basins. The equations also provide a means of anticipating changes in channel morphology resulting from hydraulic structures.

The solubility of chalcedony appears to control the silica concentration in most of the spring waters. Fales Hot Springs may be associated with a higher temperature aquifer, 150 degrees Celsius or more, in which quartz is controlling the silica concentration. Carbon dioxide is the predominant gas escaping from Fales Hot Springs, the unnamed hot spring on the south side of Mono Lake, and the two thermal springs near Bridgeport. Most of the other thermal springs issue small amounts of gas consisting principally of nitrogen. Methane is the major component of the gas escaping from the unnamed spring on Paoha Island in Mono Lake. The deuterium and oxygen isotopic composition of most of the thermal waters are those expected for local meteoric water which has undergone minor water-rock reaction. The only exceptions are the hot spring on Paoha Island in Mono Lake and perhaps the unnamed warm spring (south side of Mono Lake) which issues mixtures of thermal water and saline lake water.

Results suggest that at least locally, sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age contain oil and gas source and reservoir rocks capable of generating and accumulating liquid and gas hydrocarbons. Paleogene strata rich in organic carbon are immature. However, strata in offshore basins to the north and south may have been subjected to a more productive thermal environment. Total organic carbon content of fine grained Neogene strata appears to be significantly lower than in Paleogene rocks, possibly reflecting nonmarine or brackish water environments of deposition. Neogene sandstone beds locally yield high values of porosity and permeability to depths of about 8,000 feet (2,439 m). Below this depth, reservoir potential rapidly declines. \r\n\r\nThe General Petroleum, Great Basins No. 1 well drilled along the shore of Bristol Bay reached granitic rocks. Other wells drilled closer to the axis of the present volcanic arc indicate that both Tertiary and Mesozoic sedimentary rocks have been intruded by dikes and sills of andesite and basalt. Although the Alaska Peninsula has been the locus of igneous activity throughout much of Mesozoic and Tertiary time, thermal maturity indicators such as vitrinite reflectance and coal rank suggest, that on a regional scale, sedimentary rocks have not been subjected to abnormally high geothermal gradients.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr77813","usgsCitation":"McLean, H.J., 1977, Organic geochemistry, lithology, and paleontology of Tertiary and Mesozoic rocks from wells on the Alaska Peninsula: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 77-813, ii, 63 leaves :ill., maps ;28 cm.; (68 p. - PGS), https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr77813.","productDescription":"ii, 63 leaves :ill., maps ;28 cm.; (68 p. - PGS)","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":144065,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1977/0813/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":38143,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1977/0813/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ae5e4b07f02db68ad48","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"McLean, Hugh James","contributorId":99559,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McLean","given":"Hugh","email":"","middleInitial":"James","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":161145,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":10067,"text":"ofr7765C - 1977 - Audio-magnetotelluric data log and station location map for Fly Ranch Northeast Known Geothermal Resource Area, Nevada","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2012-02-02T00:06:36","indexId":"ofr7765C","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1977","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":330,"text":"Open-File Report","code":"OFR","onlineIssn":"2331-1258","printIssn":"0196-1497","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"77-65","chapter":"C","title":"Audio-magnetotelluric data log and station location map for Fly Ranch Northeast Known Geothermal Resource Area, Nevada","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr7765C","usgsCitation":"Long, C.L., and Senterfit, R.M., 1977, Audio-magnetotelluric data log and station location map for Fly Ranch Northeast Known Geothermal Resource Area, Nevada: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 77-65, 5 leaves :map ;28 cm., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr7765C.","productDescription":"5 leaves :map ;28 cm.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":144460,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/usgs_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4aaae4b07f02db669308","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Long, Carl L.","contributorId":32128,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Long","given":"Carl","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":160760,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Senterfit, R.

The possibility of both horizontal and vertical ground movement--subsidence, fissuring, growth faulting--in the Gulf Coast region, caused by the withdrawal of large volumes of deep formation fluids, is of major concern.
Although widespread subsidence has resulted from intensive pumping of ground water, huge withdrawals from shallow oil and gas fields, and mining of sulfur and salt, little information is available on possible subsidence caused by deep fluid extractions. As far as is known, none of the major fields in the Gulf Coast region has subsided appreciably as a result of deep oil and gas production. Of special concern in this study are field evidence of or specific research regarding subsidence directly related to geopressured-fluid withdrawals. If deep reservoirs have the same general stress-strain characteristics as shallower reservoirs, appreciable subsidence could accompany major extraction of deep fluid.
A reconnaissance of the type and extent of background data available for such a subsidence appraisal was made as a first step in investigating the possibility of land subsidence associated with the exploitation of geopressured reservoirs in the Gulf Coast. This study was limited to the Texas Gulf Coast south of the landward boundary of Miocene deposits. Visits were made to offices of Federal and State agencies and industries, to determine the type and extent of data available for interpreting subsidence potential in the Texas Gulf Coast.
This report summarizes the findings of this reconnaissance investigation, including the names and agencies of those contacted and the nature and extent of pertinent data available. Although a tremendous amount of basic data is available in governmental and private files, the task of collecting and interpreting these data and the limitations or lack of some types of data, in terms of subsidence prediction, create major problems.
