Chemical quality of surface water in the Allegheny River basin, Pennsylvania and New York
Edward F. McCarren
1967, Water Supply Paper 1835
The Allegheny River is the principal source of water to many industries and to communities in the upper Ohio River Valley. The river and its many tributaries pass through 19 counties in northwestern and western Pennsylvania. The population in these counties exceeds 3 million. A major user of the Allegheny...
Geology and ground-water resources of Laramie County, Wyoming
Marlin E. Lowry, Marvin A. Crist, John R. Tilstra
1967, Water Supply Paper 1834
Laramie County, an area of 2,709 square miles, is in the southeast corner of Wyoming. Rocks exposed there range in age from Precambrian to Recent. The most extensive aquifers in the county are the White River Formation of Oligocene age, which is as much as 500 feet thick and consists...
A simple mercury vapor detector for geochemical prospecting
William W. Vaughn
1967, Circular 540
The detector utilizes a large-volume atomic-absorption technique for quantitative determinations of mercury vapor thermally released from crushed rock. A quartz-enclosed noble-metal amalgamative stage, which is temperature controlled and is actuated by a radio-frequency induction heater, selectively traps the mercury and eliminates low-level contamination. As little as 1 part per billion...
Swatara Creek basin of southeastern Pennsylvania: An evaluation of its hydrologic system
Wilbur Tennant Stuart, William J. Schneider, James W. Crooks
1967, Water Supply Paper 1829
Local concentrations of population in the Swatara Creek basin of Pennsylvania find it necessary to store, transport, and treat water because local supplies are either deficient or have been contaminated by disposal of wastes in upstream areas. Water in the basin is available for the deficient areas and for dilution...
Reconnaissance of the chemical quality of surface waters of the Neches River basin, Texas
Leon S. Hughes, Donald K. Leifeste
1967, Water Supply Paper 1839-A
The kinds and quantities of minerals dissolved in the surface water of the Neches River basin result from such environmental factors as geology, streamflow patterns and characteristics, and industrial influences. As a result of high rainfall in the basin, much of the readily soluble material has been leached from the...

Analysis of aquifer tests in the Punjab region of West Pakistan
Gordon D. Bennett, Ata-Ur-Rehman, Ijaz Ahmed Sheikh, Sabire Alr
1967, Water Supply Paper 1608-G
The results of 141 pumping tests in the Punjab Plain of West Pakistan are reported. Methods of test analysis are described in detail, and an outline of the theory underlying these methods is given. The lateral permeability of the screened interval is given for all tests; the specific yield of...

Flood information for flood-plain planning
Conrad D. Bue
1967, Circular 539
Floods are natural and normal phenomena. They are catastrophic simply because man occupies the flood plain, the highwater channel of a river. Man occupies flood plains because it is convenient and profitable to do so, but he must purchase his occupancy at a price-either sustain flood damage, or provide flood-control...

Cenozoic Volcanic Rocks of the Devils Postpile Quadrangle, Eastern Sierra Nevada, California
N. King Huber, C. Dean Rinehart
1967, Professional Paper 554-D
Cenozoic volcanic rocks of the Devils Postpile quadrangle are of late Pliocene to Recent age and are divided into 11 map units. The suite is alkalic-calcic and ranges in composition from basalt to rhyolite. It includes a rhyolitic welded ash-flow tuff which is probably correlative with the Bishop Tuff, although...
