Industry, commerce, and public utilities in 1954 withdrew about 1,500 mgd from surface- and groundwater sources in the New Orleans area. Most of the withdrawal was made from the Mississippi River. However, some withdrawal of surface water was made from Lake Pontchartrain. A large part of the withdrawal from both...

Donald R. Nichols
1956, Open-File Report 56-91
This report is an outgrowth of permafrost and geologic field studies now in progress in the southeastern Copper River basin, Alaska and is in response to inquiries for information on permafrost and ground-water conditions. Various private and governmental groups have encountered severe differential settlement of building foundations on permafrost, and...

The U. S. Bureau of Reclamation proposes to irrigate about 64, 000 acres, largely in southern Minidoka County north and west of the Snake River, with ground water from 175 wells; 13, 650 additional acres would receive surface water pumped to a high-line canal from Lake Milner. More than 20,000 additional...

An inferred relationship between some uranium deposits and calcium carbonate cement in southern Black Hills, South Dakota
Garland B. Gott
1956, Trace Elements Memorandum 1000
Evidence resulting from geologic mapping in the southern Black Hills indicates that the areas marginal to some of the larger carbonate-cemented sandstones constitute favorable geochemical environments for the localization of uranium deposits. To determine whether these favorable environments are predictable a limited experimental core-drilling program was carried out. An extensive...

Selected annotated bibliography of the geology of uraniferous and radioactive native bituminous substances, exclusive of coals, in the United States
Harriet Nell Jones
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 536
Native bituminous substances are divided into two groups, 1) bitumens and, 2) pyrobitumens. Bitumens are composed principally of hydrocarbons substantially free from oxygenated bodies, are fusible, and are soluble in carbon disulfide. Native bitumens occur in liquid and solid forms. The native liquid bitumens include all petroleums or crude oils....
