Ground-water and drainage problems in the Whitney terrace area, Boise, Idaho
S. W. West
1955, Open-File Report 55-192
Ground-water levels in the Whitney terrace area, after many years of rise owing to downward percolation of water from irrigated land, became nearly stabilized by 1935.  Strong seasonal water-level fluctuations of 8 to 10 feet, however, are common in the Boise Valley.  In recent years, the Whitney terrace has been...
Conglomeratic sandstone strata at the base of the Brushy Basin member of the Morrison formation as related to uranium-vanadium deposits, southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah
David A. Phoenix
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 565
In southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah strata of conglomeratic sandstone are localized at the base of the Brush Basin shale member of the Morrison formation of Jurassic age. These strata are discrete lithologic units that contain sedimentary structures oriented in a prevailing easterly direction, they locally rest upon sandstone in...
New storage on Snake River for irrigation use above Milner, Idaho
Lynn Crandall
1955, Open-File Report 55-32
With Palisades reservoir in operation there will be many years when the available water supply on Snake River above Milner will be fully utilized by storage in the then existing reservoirs under their established priority rights. Surplus water spilling to waste in past years is shown by the record of...
Statement on ground water in Connecticut
R.V. Cushman
1955, Open-File Report 55-35
Connecticut has a supply of ground water, most of it of good quality, which is largely undeveloped, and much of which would lend itself to industrial and other uses. Ground water is available in small quantities in nearly all parts of the State, and in moderate to large quantities in...
Ground water investigations in Oklahoma
Leon V. Davis
1955, Open-File Report 55-36
Prior to 1937, ground-water work in Oklahoma consisted of broad scale early-day reconnaissance and a few brief investigations of local areas. The reconnaissance is distinguished by C. N. Gould's "Geology and Water Resources of Oklahoma" (Water-Supply Paper 148, 1905), which covers about half of the present State of Oklahoma. Among...

Water supplies for irrigation in the Northeast
C.H. Hardison, O. M. Hackett
1955, Open-File Report 55-57
The subject of this paper as given on the program is "Water Supplies for Irrigation in the Northeast."  Both surface-water and ground-water resources are discussed, although with somewhat differing approaches.  First we discuss the use of streamflow data in estimating the surface-water supplies available for irrigation use.  Then we treat...
Ground-water conditions between Oracle and Oracle Junction, Pinal County, Arizona
L.A. Heindl
1955, Open-File Report 55-63
The development of the San Manuel copper prospect has greatly increased traffic along State Highway 77. Considerable interest in commercial possibilities along that road has resulted in a request by the Arizona State Land Department for information about the ground-water conditions between Oracle and Oracle Junction. This request came too...
Interim report on results of test drilling in the Savannah area, Georgia and South Carolina
Stephen M. Herrick, Robert L. Wait
1955, Open-File Report 55-65
The purpose of this investigation which is being made in cooperation with the Georgia Department of Mines, Mining and Geology, Chatham County, and the City of Savannah, is to determine whether salt-water encroachment has occurred in the principal limestone aquifer in the Savannah area, and, if so, to delimit the...
Computations of total sediment discharge, Niobrara River near Cody, Nebraska
Bruce R. Colby, C. H. Hembree
1955, Water Supply Paper 1357
A natural chute in the Niobrara River near Cody, Nebr., constricts the flow of the river except at high stages to a narrow channel in which the turbulence is sufficient to suspend nearly the total sediment discharge. Because much of the flow originates in the sandhills area of Nebraska, the...
