1978, Open-File Report 78-868
Problems besetting the development of State Critical Environmental Areas Programs were discussed at a series of six workshops sponsored by the Resource and Land Investigations (RALI) Program and Office of Land Use and Water Policy (OLUWP) of the Department of the Interior. The major problems were determined to be: program...
Chemical and biological quality of Lakes Faith, Hope, and Charity at Maitland, Florida, with emphasis on the effects of storm runoff and bulk precipitation, 1971-1974
Neville G. Gaggiani, A. G. Lamonds
1978, Open-File Report 77-491
Located in a closed basin, near Orlands, Fla., Lake Faith, Hope, and Charity cover a combined area of 132 acres and are surrounded by residential, citrus grove and undeveloped areas. All of these areas affect the water quality of the lakes through storm runoff and transport of windborne material. During...

Seismic model study of Patrick Draw field, Wyoming: a stratigraphic trap in the Upper Cretaceous Almond Formation
Robert C. Anderson, Robert T. Ryder
1978, Open-File Report 78-496
The Patrick Draw field, located on the eastern flank of the Rock Springs uplift in the Washakie basin of southwestern Wyoming, was discovered in 1959 without the use of geophysical methods. The field is a classic example of a stratigraphic trap, where Upper Cretaceous porous sandstone units pinch out on...

Transit losses and traveltimes of reservoir releases along the Arkansas River from Pueblo Reservoir to John Martin Reservoir, southeastern Colorado
Russell K. Livingston
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-75
The need for accurate information regarding the transit losses and traveltimes associated with releases from Pueblo Reservoir has been stimulated by construction of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's Fryingpan-Arkansas Project and a proposed winter-water storage program in Pueblo Reservoir. To meet this need, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with...

Release of trace elements from a burning bituminous culm bank
Robert B. Finkelman
1978, Open-File Report 78-864
A burning bituminous coal waste-bank at Mather, PA was studied in order to determine if trace elements are being released into the environment in substantial concentrations. Samples of the minerals forming on the surface of the bank, the gases escaping from vents, and the water and sediment from a nearby...

Low-flow characteristics of small streams in proposed Public Law 566 basins
Stephen J. Field
1978, Open-File Report 78-664
Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams in basins considered for work under Public Law 566 are presented in this report. The low-flow characteristics presented are the annual minimum 1-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 2 years (Q7,2) and the annual minimum 7-day...

Preliminary geologic report on the Harris Lake area, northeastern Minnesota
M. P. Foose, Roger W. Cooper
1978, Open-File Report 78-385
Intense faulting and fracturing in the Harris Lake area) northeastern Minnesota are documented by detailed field studies. Faults are identified chiefly by the disruption of mappable layers within sequences of plagioclase and plagioclase-olivine cumulates. Most layers grade from olivine-rich bottoms to plagioclase-rich tops and were probably deposited by density currents....
