Geohydrology of rocks penetrated by test well UE-25p#1, Yucca Mountain area, Nye County, Nevada
R. W. Craig, J. H. Robison
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4248
Test well UE-25pNo1 was drilled in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy in the southwestern part of the Nevada Test Site, for investigations related to the isolation of high-level nuclear wastes. Rocks penetrated in the well are predominantly ash-flow tuffs of Tertiary age to a depth of 1,244 meters...
Water use in Ohio, 1980
Michael Eberle, J.A. McClure
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4024
An estimated 13,389 million gallons of water per day were used in Ohio in 1980, in four major categories of water use. Of this total, 12,645 Mgal/d (million gallons per day) were taken from surface-water sources whereas 744 Mgal/d was ground water. Totals for each category (in Mgal/d) were: thermoelectric...

Assessment of selected ground-water-quality data in Montana
R. E. Davis, G.D. Rogers
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4173
Ground-water-quality data for Montana in the U.S. Geological Survey 's computer data file WATSTORE were evaluated for nine geohydrologic units in part of the State east of the Rocky Mountains and for two geohydrologic units in the western mountainous part of the stated region. The availability of data for inorganic,...
Ground-water conditions and shallow test-well information in the eastern half of Merced County, California, 1977-82
A. L. Elliott
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4081
The city of Merced, other municipalities, and irrigation in the vicinity of Merced in the San Joaquin Valley of California depend on ground water for water supply. Water-level data for 1977-81 show that there has been no significant change in water levels, indicating that during this period, recharge in the...

Geochemical maps of the Cornplanter Roadless Area, Warren County, Pennsylvania
Frank G. Lesure, Gordon W. Day
1984, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1510-B
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) made a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Cornplanter Roadless Area (fig. 1) to test for indistinct or unexposed mineral deposits that might be recognized by their geochemical halos or patterns formed by the distribution of trace elements. Lesure, assisted by Andrew E. Grosz, collected 22...

Cost-effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Nebraska
G.B. Engel, K.L. Wahl, J.A. Boohar
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4098
This report documents the results of a study of the cost-effectiveness of the streamflow information program in Nebraska. Presently, 145 continuous surface-water stations are operated in Nebraska on a budget of $908,500. Data uses and funding sources are identified for each of the 145 stations. Data from most stations have...
Literature review and need for additional study of surface-water quality in the Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area, Ohio
C.J. Childress
1984, Open-File Report 84-619
The Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area encompasses about 24 miles of the middle reach of the Cuyahoga River and parts of four major tributaries -- Furnace Run, Brandywine Creek, Chippewa Creek, and TInkers Creek. Water quality in this reach does not meet Ohio water-quality standards for dissolved oxygen, fecal bacteria,...
Quality of water from bedrock aquifers in the South Carolina Piedmont
G. G. Patterson, G.C. Padgett
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4028
The geographic distributions of 12 common water-quality parameters of ground water from bedrock aquifers in the Piedmont physiographic province of South Carolina are presented in a series of maps. The maps are based on analyses by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control of water samples taken during...
