Ground-water quality and geochemistry of aquifers associated with coal in the Allegheny and Monongahela formations, southeastern Ohio
A. C. Razem, A. C. Sedam
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4034
Ground water from aquifers associated with coal beds in the Allegheny and Monongahela Formations in southeastern Ohio is predominantly a calcium magnesium bicarbonate type. Sodium bicarbonate type water is less common. Isolated areas of sodium chloride and calcium sulfate types also are present. The water is predominantly very hard, and...

Geohydrology and water resources of the Papago Farms-Great Plain area, Papago Indian Reservation, Arizona, and the upper Rio Sonoyta area, Sonora, Mexico
Kenneth J. Hollett
1985, Water Supply Paper 2258
The Papago Farms-Great Plain and upper Rio Sonoyta study area includes about 490 square miles in south-central Arizona and north-central Sonora, Mexico. The area is characterized by a broad, deep, sediment-filled basin bounded by low, jagged fault-block mountains. The climate is arid to semiarid. The climate and abundant ground water...
Dissolved constituents including selenium in waters in the vicinity of Kesterson National Wildlife Refuge and the west grassland, Fresno and Merced Counties, California
T. S. Presser, Ivan Barnes
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4220
Analyses were made for dissolved constituents including selenium (Se) in waters associated with subsurface agricultural drainage from the western San Joaquin Valley of California. In the vicinity of Kesterson National Wildlife Refuge and the Grassland wetlands area Se was found to be mobilized in water. As a consequence of this...

1985, Open-File Report 85-641
During the past few years, water-resource management in Kansas has undergone reorientation with the creation of the Kansas Water Authority and the Kansas Water office. New thrusts toward long-term goals based on the Kansas State Water plan demand strong communication and coordination between all water-related agencies within the State. The...

Discharge and water quality of springs in Roan and Parachute Creek basins, northwestern Colorado, 1981-83
D. L. Butler
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4078
This report is a compilation and interpretation of discharge, water-quality, and radiochemical data collected at springs in the oil-shale regions of Roan and Parachute Creek basins, Colorado, from 1981 to 1983. Springs located on upland plateaus and ridges are mixed-cation bicarbonate water types with 216 to 713 milligrams per liter...

Calculating sediment discharge from a highway construction site in central Pennsylvania
L.A. Reed, J. R. Ward, K. L. Wetzel
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4216
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, the Federal Highway Administration, and the U.S. Geological Survey have cooperated in a study to evaluate two methods of predicting sediment yields during highway construction. Sediment yields were calculated using the Universal Soil Loss and the Younkin Sediment Prediction Equations. Results...
Quality of the Arkansas River and irrigation-return flows in the lower Arkansas River Valley, Colorado
Doug Cain
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4273
Irrigation-return flows in the lower Arkansas River valley of Colorado were investigated using one-time data at 59 sites, monthly data at 4 sites, and intensive data in a small irrigated area. Specific conductance of return flows increased downstream, paralleling specific conductance of irrigation water. During July 1977, Arkansas River streamflow...
Effects of sanitary sewers on ground-water levels and streams in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, New York; part 3: Development and application of southern Nassau County model
T. E. Reilly, H. T. Buxton
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4210
By 1990, sanitary sewers in Nassau County Sewage Disposal Districts 2 and 3 and Suffolk County Southwest Sewer District will discharge to the ocean 140 cu ft of water per second that would otherwise be returned to the groundwater system through septic tanks and similar systems. To evaluate the effects...
Cost-effectiveness of the U.S. Geological Survey's stream-gaging programs in Massachusetts and Rhode Island

Simulated effects of projected pumping on the availability of freshwater in the Evangeline Aquifer in an area southwest of Corpus Christi, Texas
George E. Groschen
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4182
This study is an investigation of the continued availability of freshwater in the Evangeline aquifer along the Texas Gulf Coast and the potential for degradation of the water quality by salinewater intrusion. Recharge to the aquifer occurs by the infiltration of precipitation in the outcrop area and by cross-formational flow...

Water resources of the Cottonwood Wash Watershed, Ute Mountain Ute Indian Reservation, southwestern Colorado
A. L. Geldon
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4027
Cottonwood Wash, near Towaoc, Colorado, is a 16-square-mile watershed with an estimated average annual precipitation influx of 14,600 acre-feet. Most of this water is consumed by evapotranspiration. Except for snowmelt in the spring months and infrequent rain storms, all flow in the wash is from springs issuing from talus, block...
