Element concentrations in growth rings of trees near an abandoned wood-preserving plant site at Jackson, Tennessee
T.M. Yanosky, J. K. Carmichael
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 93-4223
Multielement analysis was performed on individual annual rings of trees growing at and near an abandoned wood-preserving plant site in Jackson, Tennessee, that operated from the early 1930's until 1981. Numerous organic compounds associated with the wood-preserving process have been detected in soils, ground water, and surface water within much...
Reconnaissance investigation of water quality, bottom sediment, and biota associated with irrigation drainage in and near Humboldt Wildlife Management Area, Churchill and Pershing Counties, Nevada, 1990-91
R. L. Seiler, G.A. Ekechukwu, R.J. Hallock
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 93-4072
A reconnaissance investigation was begun in 1990 to determine whether the quality of irrigation drainage in and near the Humboldt Wildlife Management Area, Nevada, has caused or has the potential to cause harmful effects on human health, fish, and wildlife or to impair beneficial uses of water. Samples of surface...
Estimated use of water in the United States in 1990
Wayne B. Solley, Robert R. Pierce, Howard A. Perlman
1993, Circular 1081
Water withdrawals in the United States during 1990 were estimated to average 408,000 million gallons per day (Mgal/d) of freshwater and saline water for offstream uses--2 percent more than the 1985 estimate. Total freshwater withdrawals were an estimated 339,000 Mgal/d during 1990, about the same as during 1985. Average per-capita...
Water-level changes and directions of ground-water flow in the shallow aquifer, Fallon area, Churchill County, Nevada
Ralph L. Seiler, Kip K. Allander
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 93-4118
The Truckee-Carson-Pyramid Lake Water Rights Settlement Act of 1990 directed the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to acquire water for wetland areas in the Carson Desert. The public is concerned that this acquisition of water rights and delivery of the water directly to the wetland areas would reduce recharge to...
Simulation of soluble waste transport and buildup in surface waters using tracers
F. A. Kilpatrick
1993, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A20
Soluble tracers can be used to simulate the transport and dispersion of soluble wastes that might have been introduced or are planned for introduction into surface waters. Measured tracer-response curves produced from the injection of a known quantity of soluble tracer can be used in conjunction with the superposition principle...
Ground-water conditions in Pecos County, Texas, 1987
T. A. Small, G. B. Ozuna
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 92-4190
A comparison of 1987 water levels with historical (1940-49) water levels in the Edwards-Trinity (Plateau) aquifer indicated that water levels declined more than 50 feet in three locations in the Leon-Belding irrigation area, in an area north of Fort Stockton, and in a well east of Bakersfield. Maximum measured declines...
Regionalization of harmonic-mean streamflows in Kentucky
Gary R. Martin, Kevin J. Ruhl
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 92-4173
Harmonic-mean streamflow (Qh), defined as the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of the reciprocal daily streamflow values, was determined for selected stream sites in Kentucky. Daily mean discharges for the available period of record through the 1989 water year at 230 continuous record streamflow-gaging stations located in and adjacent to...
Hydrology of the L.C. Holding coal-lease tract and adjacent areas, southwestern Utah, and potential effects of coal mining
G. E. Cordy, R. L. Seiler, Bernard J. Stolp
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 91-4111
The U.S. Bureau of Land Management recognized a need for baseline hydrologic data and an understanding of the hydrologic system in the L.C. Holding coal-lease tract in order to determine the potential effects of mining on the water resources of the area. The potential impacts of mining on the hydrology...
Reconnaissance of quality of water from farmstead wells in Tennessee, 1989-90
J. K. Carmichael, M. W. Bennett
1993, Water-Resources Investigations Report 92-4186
Data for fecal bacteria, nitrate, organic compounds, iron, manganese, and pH were collected during 1989-90 as part of a statewide reconnaissance of ground-water quality in 150 domestic farm wells in Tennessee. The biological and chemical data for each well were grouped according to eight of the nine principal aquifers in...
