Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1973, Water Supply Paper 2090
Publication of ground-water level data for the United States in watersupply papers was begun by the Geological Survey in 1935. From 1935 through 1939, a single water-supply paper for each year covering the entire Nation was issued (Water-Supply Papers 777, 817, 840, 845, and 886). Since then water-supply papers have...

Cost analysis of ground-water supplies in the North Atlantic region, 1970
Dagfin John Cederstrom
1973, Water Supply Paper 2034
The cost of municipal and industrial ground water (or, more specifically, large supplies of ground water) at the wellhead in the North Atlantic Region in 1970 generally ranged from 1.5 to 5 cents per thousand gallons. Water from crystalline rocks and shale is relatively expensive. Water from sandstone is less...

Hydrogeology of glacial drift, Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
Thomas C. Winter
1973, Water Supply Paper 2029-A
Stratified fluvial sediments occur within the glacial drift at many places in the Mesabi Iron Range area. These sediments, which are important aquifers, occur extensively between the three main till units. The thickest and most extensive aquifer consists of glaciofluvial sediments that lie between the surficial till and the middle...

Effects of coal mining on the water resources of the Tradewater River Basin, Kentucky
Hayes F. Grubb, Paul D. Ryder
1973, Water Supply Paper 1940
The effects of coal-mine drainage on the water resources of the Tradewater River basin, in the Western Coal Field region of Kentucky, were evaluated (1) by synthesis and interpretation of 16 years of daily conductance data. 465 chemical analyses covering an 18-year period, 28 years of daily discharge data, and...

Preparative free-flow electrophoresis as a method of fractionation of natural organic materials
J.A. Leenheer, Ronald L. Malcolm
1973, Water Supply Paper 1817-D
Preparative free-flow electrophoresis was found to be an efficient method of conducting large-scale fractionations of the natural organic polyelectrolytes occurring in many surface waters and soils. The method of free-flow electrophoresis obviates, the problem of adsorption upon a supporting medium and permits the use of high potential gradients and currents...
Appraisal of ground water for irrigation in the Little Falls area, Morrison County, Minnesota
John O. Helgesen
1973, Water Supply Paper 2009-D
Anticipated irrigation on sandy soils has prompted evaluation of ground-water supply potential in the Little Falls area. Geologic conditions cause ground-water availability to vary widely in the area. The largest and most readily available groundwater source is the glacial outwash sand and gravel from which the soils were derived. Test augering...
Surface water supply of the United States, 1966-70, Part 6, Missouri River basin, v. 3, Missouri River basin from Sioux City, Iowa to Nebraska City, Nebraska

Fractionation and characterization of natural organic matter from certain rivers and soils by free-flow electrophoresis
J.A. Leenheer, Ronald L. Malcolm
1973, Water Supply Paper 1817-E
Soluble river organic matter and soil fulvic acids from a variety of environments were compared by examining the free-flow electrophoretic fractionation curves of organic carbon, color, and polysaccharides. Significant amounts of virtually colorless organic material were found in both the soil and the river preparations. Polysaccharides comprised 20-75 percent of...
Water resources of the Big Sioux River Valley near Sioux Falls, South Dakota
Donald G. Jorgensen, Earl A. Ackroyd
1973, Water Supply Paper 2024
The major sources of water in the Big Sioux River valley between Sioux Falls and Dell Rapids, S.Dak., are the Big Sioux River and the glacial outwash aquifer beneath the flood plain. The river and the aquifer are hydraulically connected. The Big Sioux River has an average annual discharge of 246...
