Groundwater from Lower Cretaceous rocks in Kansas
Katherine M. Keene, Charles Knight Bayne
1976, Open-File Report 76-776
Sandstones in Lower Cretaceous rocks contain supplies, of water that may be adequate to meet increasing present and future demands for supplemental municipal and domestic use in central and western Kansas. An estimated 70 to 80 million acre-feet (86,000 to 99,000 cubic hectometers) of water containing less than 1,000 milligrams...
Chemical characteristics of the major thermal springs of Montana
Robert H. Mariner, T. S. Presser, William C. Evans
1976, Open-File Report 76-480
Twenty-one thermal springs in western Montana were sampled for chemical, isotope, and gas compositions. Most of the springs issue dilute to slightly saline sodium-bicarbonate waters of neutral to slightly alkaline pH. A few of the springs issue sodium-mixed anion waters of near neutral pH. Fluoride concentrations are high in most...

Limnological data for the major streams in Chester County, Pennsylvania
Bruce W. Lium
1976, Report
Limnological data on major streams in Chester County, Pennsylvania are tabulated to provide a base line as to the present stream conditions. As land-use patterns change and further urbanization takes place, it is anticipated that these data will serve as a basis for comparison of conditions in the future. The...

James J. Schneider
1976, Open-File Report 76-713
Test hole data, in Palm Beach County, Florida, include lithologic logs from 66 test wells and geophysical logs from 54 test wells. The purpose of the study is to provide the geohydrologic information needed for water management and land use decisions, with emphasis on the urbanized eastern part of the...
Simulations of water-level drawdowns in proposed well-field areas, Dade County, Florida
Howard Klein
1976, Open-File Report 76-651
Electrical analog model simulations of hydraulic conditions in the Biscayne aquifer were made at proposed inland well-field sites in Dade County, Florida. Simulated drawdowns of water levels after 7 months of continuous pumping at 50, 100, and 150 million gallons per day were obtained at each site. Simultaneous pumping of...
