Map showing general availability of ground water in the Salina quadrangle, Utah
Don Price
1972, IMAP 591-M
The general availability of ground water was determined from well records collected by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State, local, and Federal agencies. Data are for aquifers that in most places are less than 1,000 feet below the land surface. In areas of few or no wells, potential well...

Clay deposits of the Connecticut River Valley, Connecticut: a special problem in land management
William H. Langer
1972, Open-File Report 72-218
When man first settled the United States, two natural features favored settlement; flat land that was easy to build on and to farm, and a nearby river that could act as a source of water, transportation, and power. The Connecticut River Valley from Middletown, Ct. north past the Connecticut-Massachusetts state...

Physical, chemical, and biological aspects of the Duwamish River Estuary, King County, Washington, 1963-67
John F. Santos, J.D. Stoner
1972, Water Supply Paper 1873-C
This report describes the significant results to 1967 of a comprehensive study that began in 1963 to evaluate what changes take place in an estuary as the loads .of raw and partially treated industrial and municipal wastes are replaced by effluent from a secondary treatment plant. The study area is...
Tracer simulation study of potential solute movement in Port Royal Sound, South Carolina
F. A. Kilpatrick, T. Ray Cummings
1972, Water Supply Paper 1586-J
A tracer study was conducted in Port Royal Sound to simulate the movement and ultimate pattern of concentration of a solute continuously injected into the flow. A total of 750 pounds of Rhodamine WT dye was injected by boat during a period of 24.8 hours in a line across the...
Ground motion values for use in the seismic design of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline system
