Potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer in the Suwannee River Water Management District, north Florida, May 1980
J.C. Rosenau, R.S. Milner
1981, Open-File Report 81-211
A May 1980 potentiometric surface map of the Suwannee River Water Management District area, Florida, depicts water levels in wells tapping the Floridan aquifer. Compared to the May 1976 potentiometric map of the area, there are no significant differences in the general appearance of the contours. Water levels, however, are...
Potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer in the Northwest Florida Water Management District, May 1980
J.C. Rosenau, R.S. Milner
1981, Open-File Report 81-205
A May 1980 potentiometric surface map of the Northwest Florida Water Management District depicts water levels in wells tapping the Floridan aquifer prior to summer pumpage. Compared to earlier potentiometric maps of the area, there are no significant differences in the 1980 map that are the result of hydrologic conditions....
Water-resources investigations of the U.S. Geological Survey in Wyoming, fiscal year 1980
S. L. Green
1981, Open-File Report 81-201
This report contains lists and location maps of streamflow and reservoir stations, ground-water stations, water-quality stations, sediment stations, and peak-flow partial-record stations that are currently being operated in Wyoming. Water-resources appraisal projects are also described, including many that are related to development of energy resources. The general locations of the...

Quality of water in the Tallahatchie River near New Albany, Mississippi
Stephen J. Kalkhoff
1981, Open-File Report 80-1187
The quality of water in the Tallahatchie River was somewhat affected by municipal wastes as it flowed through a 5-mile stretch near New Albany, Miss. Specific conductance, biochemical oxygen demand, nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations, and densities of bacteria in the river increased in a downstream direction. At site 1 (upstream)...
Geophysical reconnaissance of Lemmon Valley, Washoe County, Nevada
Donald H. Schaefer, Douglas K. Maurer
1981, Open-File Report 80-1123
Rapid growth in the Lemmon Valley area, Nevada, during recent years has put increasing importance on knowledge of stored ground water for the valley. Data that would fill voids left by previous studies are depth to bedrock and depth to good-quality water beneath the two playas in the valley. Depths...
Changes in quality of ground water in the Lincoln area, Montana, 1974-79
Robert B. Leonard, Wayne A. Wood, Arnold J. Boettcher
1981, Open-File Report 80-1108
Water samples from representative shallow wells in the vicinity of Lincoln, Montana, were collected during March and June 1979 for analysis to evaluate changes in quality since 1974-75 and possible contamination by domestic or agricultural waste. All samples were suitable for drinking water with respect to the constituents tested. Tests...
