Floods of December 1966 in the Kern-Kaweah area, Kern and Tulare Counties, California; with section on Geomorphic Effects in the Kern River Basin
Willard W. Dean, Kevin M. Scott
1971, Water Supply Paper 1870-C
Past records of peak flow ,and 3-day ,storm-runoff volume in the Kern, Tule, and Kaweah River basins in California were greatly exceeded by the floods of December 1966. Streams rose rapidly following precipitation of as much as 15 inches in a 24-hour period on December 5-6 during a strong inflow...

Potential development and recharge of ground water in Mill Creek Valley, Butler and Hamilton Counties, Ohio, based on analog model analysis
Richard E. Fidler
1971, Water Supply Paper 1893
Mill Creek valley is part of the greater Cincinnati industrial area in southwestern Ohio. In 1964, nearly 30 percent of the water supply in the study area of about 27 square miles was obtained from wells in the glacial-outwash aquifer underlying the valley. Ground-water demand has increased steadily since the...
Summary of floods in the United States during 1966
J.O. Rostvedt
1971, Water Supply Paper 1870-D
This report describes the outstanding floods in the United States during 1966. The four most destructive floods occurred during March-April in the Red River of the North basin in northwestern Minnesota, during April-May in northeastern Texas, in August, in east-central Nebraska, and in December, in the Southwestern United States. For...
Hydrology and sedimentation of Corey Creek and Elk Run basins, north-central Pennsylvania
Lloyd A. Reed
1971, Water Supply Paper 1532-E
Analysis of data collected from two small agricultural basins in northcehtral Pennsylvania during the period May 1954 to September 1967 indicates that conservation measures reduced the quantity of suspended sediment leaving the Corey Creek basin as a result of frequent storms during the growing season. Extensive soil conservation treatments were...

Analysis of stream-temperature variations in the Upper Delaware River Basin, New York
Owen O. Williams
1971, Water Supply Paper 1999-K
The effect of climatologic conditions and reservoir releases on downstream conditions was determined by means of statistical and graphical analyses of stream-temperature variations measured in the upper Delaware River basin, May-September 1964-67. Climatologic conditions normally increase water temperatures from February through July and decrease them from August through January. Summer...
Availability of streamflow for recharge of the basal aquifer in the Pearl Harbor area, Hawaii
George Tokusuke Hirashima
1971, Water Supply Paper 1999-B
The Pearl Harbor area is underlain by an extensive basal aquifer that contains large supplies of fresh water. Because of the presence of a cap rock composed of sedimentary material that is less permeable than the basaltic lava of the basal aquifer, seaward movement of ground water is retarded. The...
Ground-water hydrology of the San Pitch River drainage basin, Sanpete County, Utah
Gerald B. Robinson Jr.
1971, Water Supply Paper 1896
The San Pitch River drainage basin in central Utah comprises an area of about 850 square miles; however, the investigation was concerned primarily with the Sanpete and Arapien Valleys, which comprise about 250 square miles and contain the principal ground-water reservoirs in the basin. Sanpete Valley is about 40 miles...

The water quality of Sam Rayburn Reservoir, eastern Texas
Jack Rawson, Myra W. Lansford
1971, Water Supply Paper 1999-J
Inflow of wastes to the Angelina River has caused some local deterioration of the quality of water downstream from Lufkin. However, the volume of flow in the Angelina River has been adequate to prevent serious deterioration of the quality of water in Sam Rayburn Reservoir. From March 1965 to September 1968,...
Analysis of current-meter data at Columbia River gaging stations, Washington and Oregon
John Savini, G. L. Bodhaine
1971, Water Supply Paper 1869-F
The U.S. Geological Survey developed equipment to measure stream velocity simultaneously with 10 current meters arranged in a vertical and to measure velocity closer to the streambed than attainable with conventional equipment. With the 10 current meters, synchronous velocities were recorded for a period of 66 minutes at 10 different...
Water resources of the Big Black River basin, Mississippi
B. E. Wasson
1971, Water Supply Paper 1899-F
Abundant supplies of water of good quality are available in the Big Black River basin from either ground-water or surface-water sources. For 90 percent of the time flow in the lower part of the Big Black River below Pickens is not less than 85 cfs (cubic feet per second), and...

Underground storage of imported water in the San Gorgonio Pass area, southern California
Richard M. Bloyd
1971, Water Supply Paper 1999-D
The San Gorgonio Pass ground-water basin is divided into the Beaumont, Banning, Cabazon, San Timoteo, South Beaumont, Banning Bench, and Singleton storage units. The Beaumont storage unit, centrally located in the agency area, is the largest in volume of the storage units. Estimated long-term average annual precipitation in the San...

Ground water for irrigation near Lake Emily, Pope County, west-central Minnesota
Wayne A. Van Voast
1971, Water Supply Paper 1899-J
In the Lake Emily area, thickness of the glacial drift ranges from about 200 feet to more than 400 feet. Within the drift are sand and gravel aquifers, some of which can yield adequate water supplies for irrigation. Outwash, as much as 60 feet thick, lies at the surface. The...
