Sedimentation of Williams Reservoir, Santa Clara County, California
John R. Ritter, William M. Brown III
1972, Open-File Report 72-315
Fifty-two acre-feet of sediment was ·deposited in Williams Reservoir between 1913 and 1971. From calculations of the sediment yields in other nearby drainage basins in Santa Clara County, it was determined that 24 to 38 acre-feet of sediment would have been transported to Williams Reservoir between 1961 and 1971 under...
Ground-water resources and geology of Cook County, Georgia
Charles W. Sever
1972, Open-File Report 72-345
Aquifer-performance tests and aquifer studies indicate that the limestone beneath the city of Adel and probably most of Cook County contains potable water to a depth of only about 400 to 500 feet and that "deep" wells that tap these limestones obtain most of their water from a few thin,...
Some effects of a heated pipeline on ground-water flow in Alaska
Charles E. Sloan, John D. Bredehoeft
1972, Open-File Report 72-349
The thaw bulb produced by a heated pipeline buried in a stream channel may intercept water confined in shallow unfrozen zones beneath a seasonally frozen layer. Resulting movement of ground water through the thaw bulb might produce quick conditions in the pipeline foundation materials. A digital model showed that such...
Regional draft-storage relationships for central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan
L.E. Stoimenoff
1972, Open-File Report 72-362
Regional draft-storage relationships for central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan are presented in this report. Storage requirements for the 5- and 20-year recurrence intervals were determined using the frequency-mass curve method and daily discharge records from 15 gaging stations. The relationships will be useful in making preliminary estimates of...
Water resources of part of Canyonlands National Park, southeastern Utah
C. T. Sumsion, E.L. Bloke
1972, Open-File Report 72-363
Canyonlands National Park is in about the center of the Canyon Lands section of the Colorado Plateaus physiographic province in southeastern Utah. The part of the park discussed embraces an area of about 400 square miles comprising isolated mesas, precipitous canyons, and dissected broad benches near the confluence of the...
Hydrograph simulation models of the Hillsborough and Alafia Rivers, Florida: a preliminary report
James F. Turner Jr.
1972, Open-File Report 72-382
Mathematical (digital) models that simulate flood hydrographs from rainfall records have been developed for the following gaging stations in the Hillsborough and Alafia River basins of west-central Florida: Hillsborough River near Tampa, Alafia River at Lithia, and north Prong Alafia River near Keysville. These models, which were developed from historical...
Compilation of hydrologic data, Little Elm Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1968
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1972, Open-File Report 72-420
The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the installation of flood and soil erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of "The Flood Control Act ot 1936 and 1944" and ''Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. In June 1968, the Soil Conservation...
Effects of urbanization on timing of flood peaks on Town Creek in Jackson, Mississippi
Billie E. Wasson
1972, Open-File Report 72-445
During the floods of March and April 1969 the flood crest on Town Creek occurred at Gallatin Street before crests occurred at some upstream points. Heavy urbanization in the downstream part of the basin probably caused the abnormal sequence of flood peaks in Town Creek. Flood flow at Gallatin Street is spread...
An evaluation of the use of drillers' logs in lithologic studies of the Ogallala Formation of the southern high plains of Texas, progress report, 1970-71
C.A. Wilson, Joe T. Smith, G.L. Thompson, W.M. Sandeen
1972, Open-File Report 72-451
Logs made by water-well drillers were analyzed in conjunction with test-hole drilling and geophysical logging to evaluate usefulness of the driller's log in delineating areas that would be suitable for artificial recharge of the Ogallala Formation. This preliminary study indicates that lack of detailed and accurate information in many drillers'...
Evaluation of the streamflow-data program in Hawaii
George Yamanaga
1972, Open-File Report 72-453
Streamflow data for Hawaii are evaluated and guidelines for planning future data programs are provided. Evaluation involved (1) definition of long-term goals of the data-collection program in quantitative form, (2) examination and analysis of all available data to determine which goals have been achieved, and (3) consideration of alternative programs...
A summary view of water supply and demand in the San Francisco Bay Region, California
Saul E. Rantz
1972, Open-File Report 72-462
This report presents a summary view of the water-supply situation in the nine counties that comprise the San Francisco Bay region, California, and thereby provides water data, based on 1970 conditions, that are needed for regional planning. For the purpose of this study the nine-county region has been divided into...
Records of water-level measurements in wells in the Oklahoma panhandle, 1971-72
Donald L. Hart Jr., George L. Hoffman, Robert L. Goemaat
1972, Open-File Report 72-464
Investigations of the ground-water resources of the Oklahoma panhandle by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water Resources Board includes collection of water-level records; the systematic collection of these records began in 1937. Records of many shallow wells were compiled in 1937 and periodic measurements were made...
Ground-water levels in observation wells in Oklahoma, 1969-70
R.L. Moore
1972, Open-File Report 72-463
The investigation of the ground-water resources of Oklahoma by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water Resources Board includes a continuing program to collect records of water levels in selected observation wells on a systematic basis. These water-level records: (1) provide an index to available ground-water supplies;...
Flood surveys along proposed TAPS route, Alaska, July 1971
Joseph M. Childers
1972, Open-File Report 73-45
The U.S. Geological Survey has a threefold responsibility along the proposed route of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS): to investigate possible hydrologic hazards to the pipeline, to investigate possible impacts of the pipeline system on water resources, and to develop a better understanding of Arctic hydrology. One of the major...
