H.W. Young
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-82
Ground-water pumpage in Camas Prairie, Idaho, for irrigation and municipal supplies totaled nearly 9,500 acre-feet in 1977. Declines of pressure head in the artesian aquifer have ranged from 3 to 12 feet since 1974 when increased ground-water pumping began. A comparison of water-level measurements made in September 1957 and September...
Ground-water resources of the Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina
M. D. Winner Jr.
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-52
Fresh groundwater in the Cape Lookout National Seashore in North Carolina occurs in the unconfined aquifer, an upper confined aquifer, and a lower limestome aquifer. The unconfined aquifer beneath dunes on the barrier islands is estimated to yield as much as 30 gallons per minute of freshwater to a horizontal...
Evaluation of the geologic and hydrologic factors related to the waste-storage potential of Mesozoic aquifers in the southern part of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, South Carolina and Georgia
Philip M. Brown, D.L. Brown, M.S. Reid, O. B. Lloyd Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-292
This report describes the subsurface distribution of rocks of Cretaceous to Late Jurassic(?) age in the Atlantic. Coastal Plain, South Carolina and Georgia, and examines their potential for deep-well waste storage. For mapping purposes a waste-storage "operational unit" is established and defined. It is a sand or sandstone layer, 20...

Potential potable-water supplies in Redwood National Park, California
J. P. Akers
1978, Open-File Report 78-970
An evaluation was made of the potential for potable-water supplies at 13 sites in or near Redwood National Park, Calif. The National Park Service is planning for the development of visitor facilities at these sites. At some sites, the report recommends using surface-water diversions. At other sites, locations are given...
