Water levels in observation wells in Nebraska during 1954
C.F. Keech, R.L. Case
1955, Open-File Report 55-80
The observation well program, begun in 1934 in cooperation with the Conservation and Survey Division, University of Nebraska, was continued during 1954.  The United States Geological Survey began a series of ground-water investigations in Nebraska during the fall of 1945, as part of the program for development of the Missouri...
Magnitude and frequency of summer floods in western New Mexico and eastern Arizona
F.W. Kennon
1955, Open-File Report 55-82
Numerous small reservoirs and occasional water-spreading structures are being built on the ephemeral streams draining the public and Indian lands of the Southwest as part of the Soil and Moisture Conservation Program of the Bureau of Land Management and Bureau of Indian Affairs.  Economic design of these structures requires some...
Ground-water hydraulics - A summary of lectures presented by John G. Ferris at short courses conducted by the Ground Water Branch, part 1, Theory
D.B. Knowles
1955, Open-File Report 55-85
The objective of the Ground Water Branch is to evaluate the occurrence, availability, and quality of ground water.  The science of ground-water hydrology is applied toward attaining that goal.  Although many ground-water investigations are of a qualitative nature, quantitative studies are necessarily an integral component of the complete evaluation of...
Ground-water program in Alabama
P.E. LaMoreaux
1955, Open-File Report 55-87
Several recent years of drought have emphasized the importance of Alabama's ground-water supplies, a matter of concern to us all.  So far we have been blessed in Alabama with ample ground-water, although a combination of increased use, waste, pollution, and drought has brought about critical local water shortages.  These problems...
Extending flood-frequency graphs by comparison with rainfall
W. B. Langbein
1955, Open-File Report 55-90
Flood discharge is the consequence of many contributing hydrologic events which may be presumed to occur fortuitously and independently, such that the probability of a given flood is the product of the probability of each independent contributing event.  Of the many factors that lead to a flood, the two most...
Records of wells and water-level fluctuations in the Aberdeen-Springfield area, Bingham and Power counties, Idaho in 1954
Harold G. Sisco
1955, Open-File Report 55-165
This report contains records of observation wells and water-level fluctuations for the calendar year 1954 in the Aberdeen-Springfield area, Bingham and Power Counties, Idaho.  Systematic observations in the Aberdeen-Springfield area were begun by the Geological Survey in 1952. Each year a progress report is issued and this report is number 3...
New storage on Snake River for irrigation use above Milner, Idaho
Lynn Crandall
1955, Open-File Report 55-32
With Palisades reservoir in operation there will be many years when the available water supply on Snake River above Milner will be fully utilized by storage in the then existing reservoirs under their established priority rights. Surplus water spilling to waste in past years is shown by the record of...
Statement on ground water in Connecticut
R.V. Cushman
1955, Open-File Report 55-35
Connecticut has a supply of ground water, most of it of good quality, which is largely undeveloped, and much of which would lend itself to industrial and other uses. Ground water is available in small quantities in nearly all parts of the State, and in moderate to large quantities in...
Ground water investigations in Oklahoma
Leon V. Davis
1955, Open-File Report 55-36
Prior to 1937, ground-water work in Oklahoma consisted of broad scale early-day reconnaissance and a few brief investigations of local areas. The reconnaissance is distinguished by C. N. Gould's "Geology and Water Resources of Oklahoma" (Water-Supply Paper 148, 1905), which covers about half of the present State of Oklahoma. Among...
Hydraulics of wells
Thad G. McLaughlin
1955, Open-File Report 55-104
Although the subject of this lecture is supposed to be concerned primarily with the hydraulics of wells, Professor Weers has asked that I also discuss the effects tat geological formations have on the quantity and quality of water available to wells. I will discuss the geology of Colorado in relation...
