M. A. Sabol, G. L. Turney, G.N. Ryals
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4045
Gas Works Park, in Seattle, Washington, is located at the site of an abandon gasification plant on Lake Union. Wastes deposited during 50 years of plant operations (1906-1956) have extended the shore line 100 ft and left the park soil contaminated with a number of hazardous material. Soil contaminants include...

Simulation of saltwater movement in the Floridan aquifer system, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina
Peter W. Bush
1988, Water Supply Paper 2331
Freshwater to supply Hilton Head Island, S.C., is obtained from the upper permeable zone of the Upper Floridan aquifer. Long-term pumping at Savannah, Ga., and the steadily increasing pumping on Hilton Head Island, have lowered Upper Floridan heads near the center of the island from about 10 feet above sea...
Methods for delineating flood-prone areas in the Great Basin of Nevada and adjacent states
D. E. Burkham
1988, Water Supply Paper 2316
The Great Basin is a region of about 210,000 square miles having no surface drainage to the ocean; it includes most of Nevada and parts of Utah, California, Oregon, Idaho, and Wyoming. The area is characterized by many parallel mountain ranges and valleys trending north-south. Stream channels usually are well...
Dissolved silica in the tidal Potomac River and Estuary, 1979-81 water years
Stephen F. Blanchard
1988, Water Supply Paper 2234-H
The Potomac River at Chain Bridge is the major riverine source of dissolved silica (DSi) to the tidal Potomac River and Estuary. DSi concentrations at Chain Bridge are positively correlated with river discharge; river discharge is an important factor controlling rates of supply, dilution, and residence time. When river flow...

Summary of the hydrology of the Floridan aquifer system in Florida and in parts of Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama
Richard H. Johnston, Peter W. Bush
1988, Professional Paper 1403-A
The Floridan aquifer system is one of the major sources of ground-water supplies in the United States. This highly productive aquifer system underlies all of Florida, southern Georgia, and small parts of adjoining Alabama and South Carolina, for a total area of about 100,000 square miles. About 3 billion gallons...
Sources of water-use data in Minnesota
L. C. Trotta
1988, Open-File Report 87-544
Since the 1976-77 drought in Minnesota, legislators, planners, and citizens have become aware of the need for water management based on knowledge of water availability and use in order to alleviate local water shortages. In addition to maintaining an adequate supply, information on the amount of water used, where it...

Preliminary appraisal of the effects of land use on water quality in stratified-drift aquifers in Connecticut
S. J. Grady, M. F. Weaver
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4005
The stratified-drift aquifers that underlie 7.9 sq mi of the Potatuck and 12.7 sq mi of the Pomperaug River valley, CT, consist primarily of sand and gravel deposits up to 150 ft thick. Average horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the stratified drift ranges from 20 to 170 ft/day, and groundwater flows...
