Water consumption by nuclear powerplants and some hydrological implications
Ennio V. Giusti, E.L. Meyer
1977, Circular 745
Published data show that estimated water consumption varies with the cooling system adopted, being least in once-through cooling (about 18 cubic feet per second per 1,000 megawatts electrical) and greatest in closed cooling with mechanical draft towers (about 30 cubic feet per second per 1,000 megawatts electrical). When freshwater is...
Methods for determination of radioactive substances in water and fluvial sediments
Leland Lincoln Thatcher, Victor J. Janzer, Kenneth W. Edwards
1977, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 05-A5
Analytical methods for the determination of some of the more important components of fission or neutron activation product radioactivity and of natural radioactivity found in water are reported. The report for each analytical method includes conditions for application of the method, a summary of the method, interferences, required apparatus and...
Washington, D.C.'s vanishing springs and waterways
Garnett P. Williams
1977, Circular 752
This paper traces the disappearance or reduction of the many prominent springs and waterways that existed in Washington, D.C. , 200 years ago. The best known springs were the Smith Springs (now under the McMillan Reservoir), the Franklin Park Springs (13th and I Streets, NW.), Gibson 's Spring (15th and...
Estimated use of water in the United States in 1975
Charles Richard Murray, E. Bodette Reeves
1977, Circular 765
Estimates of water use in the United States in 1975 indicate that an average of about 420 bgd (billion gallons per day) about 1,900 gallons per capita per day was withdrawn for the four principal off-channel uses which are (1) publicsupply (for domestic, commercial, and industrial uses), (2) rural (domestic...
The United States Geological Survey in Alaska: Organization and status of programs in 1977
Kathleen M. Blean, editor(s)
1977, Circular 751-A
United States Geological Survey projects in Alaska include a wide range of topics of economic and scientific interest. Studies in 1976 include economic geology, regional geology, stratigraphy, environmental geology, engineering geology, hydrology, and marine geology. Discussions of the findings or, in some instances, narratives of the course of the investigations...
The United States Geological Survey in Alaska: Accomplishments during 1976
Kathleen M. Blean, editor(s)
1977, Circular 751-B
United States Geological Survey projects in Alaska include a wide range of topics of economic and scientific interest. Studies in 1976 include economic geology, regional geology, stratigraphy, environmental geology, engineering geology, hydrology, and marine geology. Discussions of the findings or, in some instances, narratives of the course of the investigations...
A synoptic survey of trace metals in bottom sediments of the Willamette River, Oregon
David A. Rickert, V. C. Kennedy, S. W. McKenzie, W. G. Hines
1977, Circular 715-F
For nearly half a century the Willamette River in Oregon experienced severe dissolved-oxygen problems related to large loads of organically rich waste waters from industries and municipalities. Since the mid-1950 's dissolved oxygen quality has gradually improved owing to low-flow augmentation, the achievement of basinwide secondary treatment, and the use...
Socioeconomic impacts of outer continental shelf oil and gas development; a bibliography
Malka L. Pattison
1977, Circular 761
The bibliography lists reports which are concerned primarily with the socioeconomic impacts of OCS oil and gas development or which, although not primarily concerned with such impacts, include sections that contain significant discussion of them. Several of the cited reports do not address socioeconomic issues directly, but have been included...
Dissolved-oxygen regimen of the Willamette River, Oregon, under conditions of basinwide secondary treatment
Walter G. Hines, S. W. McKenzie, D. A. Rickert, F. A. Rinella
1977, Circular 715-I
For nearly half a century the Willamette River in Oregon experienced severe dissolved-oxygen problems related to large loads of organically rich waste waters from industries and municipalities. Since the mid-1950 's dissolved oxygen quality has gradually improved owing to low-flow augmentation, the achievement of basinwide secondary treatment, and the use...
Preliminary data on some Precambrian deposits of zinc-copper-lead sulfides and zinc spinel (granite) in Colorado
Douglas M. Sheridan, William H. Raymond
1977, Open-File Report 77-607
Precambrian sulfide deposits in the Southern Rocky Mountains in Colorado are being studied and re-evaluated according to geologic concepts which were developed in recent years in other parts of the world during successful research regarding economic massive sulfide deposits. These studies, initiated in 1974 in Colorado by the U.S. Geological...
Ground-water resources and geology of Colquitt County, Georgia
E. A. Zimmerman
1977, Open-File Report 77-56
Limestone beds of Eocene, Oligocene, and lower Miocene age, called the principal artesian aquifer, are the chief source of ground water for Colquitt County. Because streams are small, undependable and relatively inaccessible to most users, ground water is the most important source for increased industrial and agricultural water use. Southeast...
Uranium mobility during interaction of rhyolitic glass with alkaline solutions: dissolution of glass
Robert A. Zielinski
1977, Open-File Report 77-744
This report concerns investigations designed to identify the important physical and chemical parameters influencing the rate of release of uranium from glass shards of rhyolitic air-fall ash. Oxidizing, silica undersaturated, alkaline solutions are eluted through a column of rhyolitic glass shards at a carefully controlled temperature, pressure, and flow rate....
