Constant-head pumping test of a multiaquifer well to determine characteristics of individual aquifers
Gordon D. Bennett, E.P. Patten
1962, Water Supply Paper 1536-G
This report describes the theory and field procedures for determining the transmissibility and storage coefficients and the original hydrostatic head of each aquifer penetrated by a multiaquifer well. The procedure involves pumping the well in such a manner that the drawdown of water level is constant while the discharges of...

Ground-water reconnaissance in Round Valley, Custer County, Idaho
E. G. Crosthwaite
1962, Open-File Report 62-33
Round Valley in central Idaho contains alluvial deposits of Pleistocene and Recent age which yield adequate supplies of ground water for stock and domestic wells. The alluvial deposits are underlain by Challis Volcanics of Oligocene or Early Miocene age and a few wells obtain domestic and stock water from the...
Ground-water reconnaissance of the Sailor Creek area, Owyhee, Elmore, and Twin Falls Counties, Idaho
E. G. Crosthwaite
1962, Open-File Report 62-34
This reports evaluates the ground-water resources of about 1,000 square miles in the semiarid uplands south of the Snake River between Bruneau River and Salmon Falls Creek. The outcropping rocks are the Idavada Volcanics of Pliocene age, and the Idaho Group of Pliocene and Plieistocene age, consisting of the Banbury...

Evolution of methods for evaluating the occurrence of floods
M. A. Benson
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-A
A brief summary is given of the history of methods of expressing flood potentialities, proceeding from simple flood formulas to statistical methods of flood-frequency analysis on a regional basis. Current techniques are described and evaluated. Long-term flood records in the United States show no justification for the adoption of a...

Geology and ground-water resources of the Ahtanum Valley, Yakima County, Washington
B. L. Foxworthy
1962, Water Supply Paper 1598
The Ahtanum Valley covers an area of about 100 square miles in an important agricultural district in central Yakima County, Wash. Because the area is semiarid, virtually all crops require irrigation. Surface-water supplies are inadequate in most of the area, and ground water is being used increasingly for irrigation. The...

Floods in Nebraska on small drainage areas, magnitude and frequency
Emil W. Beckman, Norman E. Hutchison
1962, Circular 458
Flood hazard information is needed for small streams as well as for large ones. This report explains methods of defining the magnitude and frequency of floods in Nebraska on uncontrolled and unregulated streams which have about 300 square miles or less of drainage area contributing to surface runoff. Composite frequency...

1962, Open-File Report 62-115
The southern Williston basin, which underlies about 110,000 square miles #n North Dakota, South Dakota, and eastern Montana, is part of a large structural and sedimentary basin. Its surface is a flat to gently rolling plain, standing about 1,500 to 3,500 feet above sea level and locally studded by a...
