Recharge basins on Long Island are unlined pits of various shapes and sizes excavated in surficial deposits of mainly glacial origin. Of the 2,124 recharge basins on Long Island in 1969, approximately 9 percent (194) contain water 5 or more days after a 1-inch rainfall. Basins on Long Island contain...

Ground water in the alluvium along the Green River between its mouth and Woodbury, Kentucky
Paul D. Ryder
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-53
The are of investigation is that part of the Green River flood plain which is in the Western Coal Field region of Kentucky. It extends from the mouth at the Ohio River to river-mile 149 (river-kilometer 240) at Woodbury, Ky. The flood plain varies in width from 0.4 mile (0.6 kilometer)...
Dissolved-solids discharge to the oceans from the conterminous United States
Donald K. Leifeste
1974, Circular 685
Dissolved-solids data from 54 river basins for 1966-69 were used to compute the amount of dissolved material contributed to the oceans from the conterminous United States. The computations show that about 264,000,000 tons are discharged annually. The Gulf of Mexico receives the largest load, about 183,000,000 tons, of which about...
Large rivers of the United States

1974, Circular 686
Information on the flow of the 28 largest rivers in the United States is presented for the base periods 1931-60 and 1941-70. Drainage area, stream length, source, and mouth are included. Table 1 shows the average discharge at downstream gaging stations. Table 2 lists large rivers in order of average...
A special planning technique for stream-aquifer systems
C.T. Jenkins, O. James Taylor
1974, Open-File Report 74-242
The potential effects of water-management plans on stream-aquifer systems in several countries have been simulated using electric-analog or digital-computer models. Many of the electric-analog models require large amounts of hardware preparation for each problem to be solved and some become so bulky that they present serious space and access problems....
