1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4127
Results are documented of a study of the cost effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in northeastern California. Data uses and funding sources were identified for the 127 continuous stream gages currently being operated in the study area. One stream gage was found to have insufficient data use to warrant cooperative...

Potential effects of surface coal mining on the hydrology of the Circle West coal tracts, McCone County, eastern Montana
M. R. Cannon
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4181
The Circle West coal tracts in McCone County, Montana, contain about 460 million tons of recoverable coal reserves. Estimates of coal reserves for the tract are based predominantly on the S coal bed, which averages about 16 ft in thickness. About 175 million tons, or 38%, of the recoverable coal...
Hydrology of a surface coal mined area in Randolph County, Illinois
J.V. Borghese, A. R. Klinger
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4256
Ground water was monitored from October 1980 to April 1983 and surface water was monitored from October 1980 to September 1982 in the 0.6-square-mile basin of Plum Creek Tributary in Randolph County, Illinois, to determine effects of surface mining for coal. During the study period, the basin was being surfaced...
Water-resources appraisal of the upper Arkansas River basin from Leadville to Pueblo, Colorado
T. M. Crouch, Doug Cain, P.O. Abbott, R.D. Penley, R. T. Hurr
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4114
Water used for agriculture and stock and municipal supplies in the upper Arkansas River basin is derived mostly from the Arkansas River and its tributaries. The flow regime of the river has been altered by increased reservoir capacities and importation of 69,200 acre-feet per year from the Colorado River drainage...
High-resolution seismic-reflection data collected on R/V S.P. LEE: L9-84-CP, Marshall Islands to Hawaii
William C. Schwab, Norman G. Bailey
1984, Open-File Report 85-24
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) R/V S.P. LEE (cruise L9-84-CP) left Majuro, Radak chain of the Marshall Islands on July 28, 1984, cruised over the Mid-Pacific Mountains, and reached Hawaii on August 15, 1984. The main objectives of the cruise were to study the distribution and composition of ferromanganese-oxide crusts...
Quantity and quality of streamflow in the White River basin, Colorado and Utah
J. M. Boyle, K.J. Covay, D. P. Bauer
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4022
The water quality and flow of existing streams in the White River basin, located in northwestern Colorado and northeastern Utah, are adequate for present uses, but future development (such as energy) may affect stream quality and quantity. Present conditions are described as a baseline to enable planners to allocate available...
Quality of ground water in agricultural areas of the San Luis Valley, south-central Colorado
Patrick Edelmann, David R. Buckles
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4281
The quality of ground water in the principal agricultural areas of the San Luis Valley, south-central Colorado was evaluated using chemical analyses of water collected from 57 wells completed in the unconfined aquifer and from 25 wells completed in the confined aquifer. Ground water in both aquifers generally contains dissolved-solids...
Impact of development on availability and quality of ground water in eastern Nassau County, Florida, and southeastern Camden County, Georgia
D.P. Brown
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4190
The primary sources of water in the area are from the surficial and Floridan aquifers. The surficial aquifer, consisting of thin permeable zones of sand, shell, and limestone, provides limited water supplies (10-50 gallons per minute). Its estimated transmissivity ranges from less than 100 to 10,000 feet squared per day....
Estimation of streamflow for selected sites on the Carson and Truckee rivers in California and Nevada, 1944-80
J. C. Blodgett, R.N. Oltmann, K.R. Poeschel
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4058
Daily mean and monthly discharges were estimated for 10 sites on the Carson and Truckee Rivers for periods of incomplete records and for tributary sites affected by reservoir regulation. On the basis of the hydrologic characteristics, stream-flow data for a water year were grouped by month or season for subsequent...

Test well DO-CE 88 at Cambridge, Maryland, penetrated 3,299 feet of unconsolidated Quaternary, Tertiary and Cretaceous sediments and bottomed in quartz-monzonite gneiss. The well was drilled to provide data for a study of the aquifer system of the northern Atlantic Coastal Plain. Twenty-one core samples were collected. Six sand zones...
