Hole-to-surface resistivity measurements at Gibson Dome (drill hole GD-1) Paradox basin, Utah
J.J. Daniels
1984, Open-File Report 82-320
Hole-to-surface resistivity measurements were made in a deep drill hole (GD-1), in San Juan County, Utah, which penetrated a sequence of sandstone, shale, and evaporite. These measurements were made as part of a larger investigation to study the suitability of an area centered around the Gibson Dome structure for nuclear...

Water-quality investigations of the Jordan River, Salt Lake County, Utah, 1980-82
D. W. Stephens
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4298
Water-quality studies were conducted on the Jordan River, Utah, to investigate specific problems: dissolved oxygen, toxic substances, sanitary quality, and turbidity and suspended sediment. The dissolved oxygen decreased from 8 milligrams per liter at the Jordan Narrows to less than 5 milligrams per liter at 500 North Street. Chemical oxygen...
Reconnaissance of the shallow-unconfined aquifer in Salt Lake Valley, Utah
R. L. Seiler, K.M. Waddell
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4272
The shallow-unconfined aquifer in Salt Lake (Jordan) Valley, Utah, seldom is used for domestic or industrial purposes because it yields water slowly and is readily contaminated. The water in the aquifer, however, can flood basements and is a potential source of contamination to other water supplies. In about one-half of...
Quality of water in the alluvial aquifer, American Bottoms, East St. Louis, Illinois
David C. Voelker
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4180
Ground-water levels in the American Bottoms regions around East St. Louis, Illinois, have risen several feet since the early 1970's. Artificial dewatering of the aquifer by increased pumping is being investigated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to alleviate economic and health concerns resulting from elevated ground-water levels. A...

The U.S. Geological Survey project designed to study the availability and quality of water in glacial aquifers in the States of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ohio is scheduled for completion in 1986. It will focus on general principles that define...
Evaluation of the surface-water data network, Suwannee River basin, Florida, 1982
Roger P. Rumenik, J.E. Coffin
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4245
In the 9,950 square mile area of the Suwannee River basin in Florida and Georgia, a network of 33 surface-water gaging stations operated for different periods of time from 1927 to 1982 was evaluated for its capability to provide program information for floodplain mapping, floodplain management, forecasting of flow extremes,...
Water-resources investigations of the U.S. Geological Survey in Wyoming, fiscal year 1984

1984, Open-File Report 84-622
This report contains lists and location maps of streamflow and reservoir stations, crest-stage partial-record stations, water-quality stations, sediment stations, and ground-water observation wells that are currently being operated. Water-resources appraisal projects in Wyoming are also described , including many that are related to development of energy resources. The general locations...

Sediment concentrations and loads in the Loxahatchee River estuary, Florida, 1980-82
Wayne H. Sonntag, Benjamin F. McPherson
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4157
This study was conducted to estimate the magnitude of sediment loads and the general spatial and temporal patterns of sediment transport in the Loxahatchee River estuary, Florida. Mean concentrations of suspended sediment generally were higher in the Jupiter Inlet area than in the remainder of the embayment area. Concentrations of...
Subsurface storage of freshwater in south Florida; evaluation of surface-water discharge data at selected sites
W. H. Sonntag
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4008
Canal discharge in south Florida may consist of a potential source of freshwater for deep-well injection. Discharge data for the 1970-81 water years at 27 canal and river sites were analyzed. Flow was analyzed for 30-, 60-, 90-, 120-, and 183-consecutive-day low-mean discharges during the periods of highest flow to...
Floods in south-central Oklahoma and north-central Texas, October 1981

1984, Open-File Report 84-65
Heavy rains fell over south-central Oklahoma and north-central Texas during October 11-14, 1981, causing record flooding in both States. Six lives were lost, many people were temporarily left homeless, and damages amounted to nearly $115 million. The maximum rainfall of 23 inches occurred 5 miles north of Clyde, Texas, in...

Analysis of flood hazards for a 9-mile reach of Fortymile Wash and three of its tributaries was undertaken to aid in determining possible sites for the storage of radioactive wastes. Data from 12 peak-flow gaging stations adjacent to the Test Site were used to develop regression relations that permit an...
