1987, Open-File Report 85-153
Hydrologic information and analysis aid in decisions to lease federally owned coal and to prepare necessary Environmental Assessments and Impact Study reports. This need has become even more critical with the enactment of Public Law 95-87, the "Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977." This act requires an appropriate...

Quality of water in mines in the Western Middle Coal Field, Anthracite Region, east-central Pennsylvania
L.A. Reed, M.M. Beard, D.J. Growitz
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4038
The quality of mine water in the 75 sq-mi Western Middle anthracite field, Pennsylvania was determined by sampling discharges and boreholes at 60 abandoned and flooded mines during 1975-78. The Vulcan-Buck Mountain mine, east-northeast of Mahanoy City, contains an estimated 6,100 acre-ft of water with a specific conductance of 380...
Hydrologic effects of artificial-recharge experiments with reclaimed water at East Meadow, Long Island, New York
B.J. Schneider, H. F. Ku, E. T. Oaksford
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4323
Artificial recharge experiments were conducted at East Meadow, Long Island, New York, from October 1982 through January 1984 to evaluate the degree of groundwater mounding and the chemical effects of artificially replenishing the groundwater system with tertiary-treated wastewater. More than 800 million gallons of treated effluent was returned to the...

Shore erosion as a sediment source to the tidal Potomac River, Maryland and Virginia
Andrew J. Miller
1987, Water Supply Paper 2234-E
The shoreline of the tidal Potomac River attained its present form as a result of the Holocene episode of sea-level rise; the drowned margins of the system are modified by wave activity in the shore zone and by slope processes on banks steepened by basal-wave erosion. Shore erosion leaves residual...

National and regional trends in water-well drilling in the United States, 1964-84
S. M. Hindall, Michael Eberle
1987, Open-File Report 87-247
Information on national and regional water well drilling activity is important for water resource planning and management and for water related equipment marketing. A study was conducted to analyze drilling trends on the basis of data for selected years from 1964 through 1984. The study focused primarily on the years...
