Quality of water in the Black River near Dunn, North Carolina, and ground-water levels adjacent to the river prior to channel excavation in 1978-79
Clyde E. Simmons
1980, Open-File Report 80-425
During 1976-79 data were collected at three sites on the Black River, near Dunn, North Carolina, to define water-quality and other hydrologic conditions prior to channel excavation. Samples collected over a range in flow from 1.2 to 900 cubic feet per second contained 1 to 81 mg/L (milligrams per liter)...
Shorter contributions to stratigraphy and structural geology, 1979
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1980, Professional Paper 1126-A-J
PART A: A system of anticlines lies along the trend of the sinuous course of the Colorado River for a distance of 97 km in the central Grand Canyon. Similar anticlines occur in some perennially wet side canyons. The anticlines are most abundant and well developed along northeast-trending reaches of...
Geologic and hydrologic data from a test-monitor well at Fernandina Beach, Florida
David P. Brown
1980, Open-File Report 80-347
A 2,102-foot observation well was drilled at Fernandina Beach, Florida, to obtain geologic and hydrologic data. Drill cuttings, water samples, and water-level measurements were collected. Geologist's, driller's, and geophysical logs were completed. The well is constructed with 12-inch diameter casing to a depth of 515 feet and 6-inch diameter casing...
Effects of coal mine subsidence in the Sheridan, Wyoming, area
C. Richard Dunrud, Frank W. Osterwald
1980, Professional Paper 1164
Analyses of the surface effects of past underground coal mining in the Sheridan, Wyoming, area suggest that underground mining of strippable coal deposits may damage the environment more over long periods of time than would modern surface mining, provided proper restoration procedures are followed after surface mining. Subsidence depressions and...
Geohydrology of the Delta-Clearwater area, Alaska
Dorothy E. Wilcox
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-92
The alluvial aquifer in the Delta-Clearwater area, Alaska, is composed of lenticular, interbedded deposits of silt, sand, and gravel. Ground water occurs under both confined and unconfined conditions in the area. The potentiometric surface slopes approximately northward at gradients ranging from about 1 to 25 feet per mile. The aquifer...
Water quality of four lakes in Lakeville, Minnesota
L. H. Tornes, M.R. Have
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-66
Water-quality characteristics were determined for four selected lakes to provide background data for evaluating changes that may occur in the lakes because of urbanization. Precipitation of calcium carbonate is suggested by high pH values and a decrease in the calcium concentration when magnesium, sodium, and chloride concentrations increase. Pollution is...
Preimpoundment water quality of the Wild Rice River, Norman County, Minnesota
L. H. Tornes
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-79
Water samples have been collected at two sites on the Wild Rice River since September 1974 to establish baseline water-quality characteristics before construction of a reservoir for recreation and flood control near Twin Valley, Minn. A decline in water quality between the sites is shown by mean total phosphorus concentrations,...
Ground-water availability on the Kitsap Peninsula, Washington
Arnold J. Hansen Jr., E.L. Bolke
1980, Open-File Report 80-1186
Unconsolidated deposits on the Kitsap peninsula are of glacial and interglacial origin. These deposits were divided into three units on the basis of their lithology and hydraulic properties. Two of the three units are composed of layers of sand and gravel alternating with layers of silt and clay. The third...
Water resources data for Florida, water year 1979; Volume 1. Northeast Florida
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1980, Water Data Report FL-79-1
Water resources data for the 1979 water year for northeast Florida consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; elevation and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; water-levels and water quality of wells; and discharge and water quality of springs. Additional water data were collected at various...
Estimated water use in Mississippi, 1980
J.A. Callahan
1980, Open-File Report 83-224
Large quantities of good quality ground and surface water are readily available in nearly all parts of Mississippi, and there is also an abundant supply of saline water in the estuaries along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The total estimated water use in the State in 1980 from groundwater and surface...
Some chemical characteristics of mine drainage in Illinois
L.G. Toler
1980, Open-File Report 80-416
Surface mining for coal in Illinois has affected runoff from the mined areas and altered water quality in the streams. Average annual sulfate loads in streams are 3,000 to 4,000 tons per square mile of mined land in the Big Muddy and Saline River basins in southern Illinois. Relative high...
Thermal springs in the Payette River basin, west-central Idaho
R.E. Lewis, H.W. Young
1980, Open-File Report 80-1020
The Payette River basin, characterized by steep, rugged mountains and narrow river valleys, occupies an area of about 3 ,300 square miles in west-central Idaho. Predominant rock types in the basin include granitic rocks of the Idaho batholith and basalt flows of the Columbia River Basalt Group. Waters from thermal...
