Isidore Zietz, Roland G. Henderson
1949, Open-File Report 49-9
The eight attached maps were constructed from data taken on Project Volcano in the summer of 1947. The project was sponsored by the Office of Naval Research and conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Naval Ordnance Laboratory. Field work was done by Fred Keller, Jr., and...
Index of surface-water records, part 12, Pacific slope basins in Washington and upper Columbia River basin, to September 30, 1948
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1949, Circular 60
The groundwater resources of Wood County, Wisconsin, are described. Groundwater is pumped only from wells drilled in Precambrian rock in the northern two-thirds of the county. The generally low permeability of this rock limits the availability of groundwater in this area. Saturated deposits of sand and gravel yield more than...
Public water supplies in central and north-central Texas
Raymond W. Sundstrom, W. L. Broadhurst, B.C. Dwyer
1949, Water Supply Paper 1069
This report gives a summarized description of the public water supplies in 35 counties of central and north-central Texas, extending from the southern boundaries of Travis, Blanco, Gillespie, and Kerr Counties northward to the TexasOklahoma State line. It gives the available data as follows for each of the 145 communities:...
Progress report on the geology and ground-water hydrology of the lower Platte River Valley, Nebraska, with a section on the chemical quality of the ground water
Herbert A. Waite, Herbert A. Swenson
1949, Circular 20
The occurrence of abundant ground-water supplies in the lower Platte River Valley has made possible the present agricultural and industrial economy of the area. Likewise, the future development of the area is dependent on the wise use of this important resource. The current investigation, on which this report is based,...
Interpreting ground conditions from geologic maps
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1949, Circular 46
Intelligent planning for heavy construction, water supply, or other land utilization requires advance knowledge of ground conditions in the area. It is essential to know:the topography, that is, the configuration of the land surface;the geology and soils, that is, the deposits that compose the land and its weathered surface; andthe...
Ground-water supplies of the Ypsilanti area, Michigan
Charles L. McGuinness, O.F. Poindexter, E. G. Otton
1949, Water Supply Paper 1078
As of the date of this report (August 1945), the major water users in the Ypsilanti area are: (1) the city of Ypsilanti, (2) the Willow Run bomber plant, built by the Federal Government and operated by the Ford Motor Co., and (3) the war housing project of the Federal...
Petrology and habit of some diabase sheets in southeastern Pennsylvania
Preston Enslow Holtz
1949, Open-File Report 49-33
Small masses of granophyre occur in the upper part of diabase intrusions southeastern Pennsylvania. Diamond drill hole exploration of magnetite deposits near Dillsburg revealed a body of diabase beneath the sedimentary rocks in which the deposits occur. The drill core revealed a complete gradational sequence downward from a diabase chill...
Suggested correlation in Simpson seeps region
F. M. Robinson, Robert Thomas
1949, Geological Investigations, Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, Alaska 13
During the 1949 drilling season eight core tests were completed in the Simpson Seeps area up to October 25th„ This program, which is still in progress, was undertaken to provide an explanation for the surface seeps near Caps Simpson. The shallowest of the eight holes reached 800 feet; the deepest...
