Suitability of irrigation water and changes in ground-water quality in the Lompoc subarea of the Santa Ynez River Basin, Santa Barbara County, California
R. E. Evenson
1965, Water Supply Paper 1809-S
Analyses of water samples collected since 1934 from some of the irrigation wells in the Lompoc subarea of the Santa Ynes River valley have shown a gradual deterioration in the chemical quality of the water. Most of the ground water pumped in the subarea has a dissolved-solids contents ranging from about...
Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the east-central Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
R. D. Cotter, H. L. Young, L. R. Petri, C. H. Prior
1965, Water Supply Paper 1759-E
Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities on the east-central Mesabi Iron Range. Both ground water and surface water offer good potential supplies. For the ground-water supplies, the most productive aquifers are the Biwabik Iron Formation and the stratified glacial drift. Surface-water supplies are variable. Streams in the...
Hydrology of melt-water channels in southwestern Minnesota
Gerald L. Thompson
1965, Water Supply Paper 1809-K
Melt-water channel deposits are among the most important aquifers in southwestern Minnesota, but permeable zones within the deposits are difficult to locate. Interpretation of the depositional history of proglacial channel deposits from aerial photographs and test-hole samples indicates the position of the permeable zones. Generally, the coarse-grained deposits are in...

Geology and water resources of Portage County, Wisconsin
Charles Lee Roy Holt
1965, Water Supply Paper 1796
Portage County has abundant resources of generally good quality water and, although water problems exist locally, depletion or general scarcity of water is not likely in the foreseeable future. The county receives annually about 31 inches of precipitation, of which about 21 inches is lost as evaportranspiration. The average annual water...
Geology and hydrology of the Claiborne Group in western Tennessee
Gerald K. Moore
1965, Water Supply Paper 1809-F
The area of western Tennessee underlain by the Claiborne Group is about 7,200 square miles and lies on the east flank of the syncline that forms the Mississippi embayment. It includes the Mississippi Alluvial Plain and part of a dissected upland plateau. The Claiborne Group dips to the northwest at...

Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities or the west-central Mesabi Iron Range. The largest sources are the ground-water aquifers in the Biwabik Iron-Formation and the stratified glacial drift. Areas of stratified drift that probably have good water potential have been outlined. Surface-water supplies are negligible in the...

Identification and measurement of chlorinated organic pesticides in water by electron-capture gas chromatography
William L. Lamar, Donald F. Goerlitz, LeRoy M. Law
1965, Water Supply Paper 1817-B
Pesticides, in minute quantities, may affect the regimen of streams, and because they may concentrate in sediments, aquatic organisms, and edible aquatic foods, their detection and their measurement in the parts-per-trillion range are considered essential. In 1964 the U.S. Geological Survey at Menlo Park, Calif., began research on methods for...
