Bacteriological water quality of Tulpehocken Creek basin, Berks and Lebanon Counties, Pennsylvania
James L. Barker
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-53
A four month intensive study of the bacteriological quality of water in the Tulpehocken Creek basin indicates that (1) the streams locally contain high densities of bacteria indicative of fecal contamination, (2) nonpoint waste sources, particularly livestock, are the dominant influence in the excessive bacteriological-indicator counts observed, and (3) retention...
Preferred and observed conditions for sockeye salmon in Ozette Lake and its tributaries, Clallam County, Washington
Gilbert C. Bortleson, N. P. Dion
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-64
Ozette River and Ozette Lake and its tributaries in Washington have many of the water-quality and stream-hydraulic characteristics that are generally supportive of good sockeye salmon production. Ozette Lake is a large, deep lake and a natural rearing area and for young sockeye. In the summer of 1976 water temperatures...
The Energy Lands Program of the U.S. Geological Survey, fiscal year 1976
John O. Maberry (compiler)
1978, Circular 778
The Energy Lands Program of the U.S. Geological Survey comprises several projects that conduct basic and interpretive earth-science investigations into the environmental aspects of energy-resource recovery, transmission, and conversion. More than half the coal reserves of the United States occur west of the Mississippi River; therefore, the program concentrates mostly...
Interpretation of well logs in a carbonate aquifer
L.M. MacCary
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-88
This report describes the log analysis of the Randolph and Sabial core holes in the Edwards aquifer in Texas, with particular attention to the principles that can be applied generally to any carbonate system. The geologic and hydrologic data were obtained during the drilling of the two holes, from extensive...
Inflatable straddle packers and associated equipment for hydraulic fracturing and hydrologic testing
Eugene Shuter, Robert R. Pemberton
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-55
Independent aquifer testing is the only way to fully understand the hydrology encountered in boreholes intersecting multiple aquifers. The most feasible method to accomplish the testing of multiple aquifer wells is through the use inflatable packers. The straddle packers and associated equipment herein described arE valuable tools for making isolated...
Maps showing water-level declines, land subsidence, and earth fissures in south-central Arizona
R. L. Laney, R.H. Raymond, C.C. Winikka
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-83
From 1915 to 1975, more than 109 million acre-feet of ground water was withdrawn from about 4,500 square miles in Pinal and Maricopa Counties in south-central Arizona. The volume of water withdrawn greatly exceeds the volume of natural recharge, and water levels have been declining since 1923. As a result...
Effects of urban development on the flood-flow characteristics of the Walnut Creek Basin, Des Moines Metropolitan area, Iowa
Oscar G. Lara
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-11
This report deals with the probable impact of urban development on the magnitude and frequency of flooding in the lower reach of the Walnut creek Basin.Stream-modeling techniques, which include complete definition of unit hydroqraphs and precipitation loss-rate criteria, were utilized to evaluate the effects of urban development as measured by...
