Summary of tectonic and structural evidence for stress orientation at the Nevada Test Site
Wilfred James Carr
1974, Open-File Report 74-176
A tectonic synthesis of the NTS (Nevada Test Site) region, when combined with seismic data and a few stress and strain measurements, suggests a tentative model for stress orientation. This model proposes that the NTS is undergoing extension in a N. 50 ? W.-S. 50 ? E. direction coincident with...

Sediment characteristics of five streams near Harrisburg, Pa., before highway construction
Lloyd A. Reed
1974, Open-File Report 74-140
Rainfall, streamfiow, sediment, and turbidity data are being collected as part of a study to evaluate the effects of highway construction on sediment discharge. The study is also designed to determine the effectiveness of different erosion-control measures in reducing sediment discharges. The study area, near Enola, Pa., consists of five...

Gravel resources, urbanization, and future land use, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado
James M. Soule, Harold R. Fitch
1974, Open-File Report 74-178
An assessment of gravel needs in Front Range Urban Corridor markets to 2000 A.D., based on forecast population increases and urbanization, indicates that adequate resources to meet anticipated needs are potentially available, if future land use does not preclude their extraction. Because of urban encroachment onto gravel-bearing lands, this basic...
