Hydrologic characteristics of surface-mined land reclaimed by sludge irrigation, Fulton County, Illinois
G. L. Patterson, R.F. Fuentes, L.G. Toler
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-16
Analyses of water samples collected at four stream-monitoring stations, in an area surface mined for coal and being reclaimed by sludge irrigation, show the principal metals are sodium, calcium, and magnesium and principal non-metals are chloride, sulfate, and bicarbonate. Comparing yearly mean chemical concentrations shows no changing trends since reclamation...

Hydrologic effects of storing liquified sewage sludge on strip-mined land, Fulton County, Illinois
G. L. Patterson
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4047
The water table near four sewage storage basins in a strip-mined area of western Illinois, has risen about 10 feet since the basins were constructed in 1971. Two dimensional modeling of ground-water flow in the mine spoil indicates that the rise is caused by leakage from one storage basin. The...

Reconnaissance geologic map and mineral resource potential of the Gearhart Mountain Wilderness and Roadless Area (6225), Lake and Klamath counties, Oregon
George W. Walker, James Ridenour
1982, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1367
The Gearhart Mountain Wilderness, Lake and Klamath Counties, Oreg., is devoid of mines and mineral prospects and there are no known mining claims within the area. Furthermore, the results of this mineral appraisal indicate that there is little likelihood that commercial deposits of metallic minerals will be found in the...

Data on subsurface storage of liquid waste near Pensacola, Florida, 1963-1980
R. W. Hull, J.B. Martin
1982, Open-File Report 82-689
Since 1963, when industrial waste was first injected into the subsurface in northwest Florida, considerable data have been collected relating to the geochemistry of subsurface waste storage. This report presents hydrogeologic data on two subsurface waste storage. This report presents hydrogeologic data on two subsurface storage systems near Pensacola, Fla.,...

House bat management
Arthur M. Greenhall
1982, Resource Publication 143
The soundest long-term solution for the management of bats that enter buildings and cause a nuisance problem or present a public health hazard is by batproofing the structure. Chemical toxicants do not solve house bat problems and may create worse ones. This manual describes batproofing techniques that will provide effective...

Evaluation of the streamflow-data program in Pennsylvania
Herbert N. Flippo Jr.
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-21
The stream-gaging program in Pennsylvania is subject to budgetary constraints in the next several years. Elimination of those gaging stations that have no current-purpose use and little utility in providing regional flow-characteristic information is the most effective way to reduce costs. The efficient design of a network of gaging stations for obtaining regional information...
