Application of seismic-refraction techniques to hydrologic studies
F.P. Haeni
1986, Open-File Report 84-746
During the past 30 years, seismic-refraction methods have been used extensively in petroleum, mineral, and engineering investigations, and to some extent for hydrologic applications. Recent advances in equipment, sound sources, and computer interpretation techniques make seismic refraction a highly effective and economical means of obtaining subsurface data in hydrologic studies....

Description and results of test-drilling program at Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey, 1982-84
P. T. Harte, B. P. Sargent, E. F. Vowinkel
1986, Open-File Report 86-316
Picatinny Arsenal, located in north-central New Jersey, has a long history of explosives manufacturing. Past industrial activities and past waste-disposal practices have caused some groundwater contamination problems. In 1982, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Army, began a water resources investigation of the Arsenal. The test drilling...
