1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4208
The James River, which originates in North Dakota and joins the Missouri River near Yankton, South Dakota, is about 747 miles long, with about 474 river miles located in South Dakota. The James River basin includes 21,116 sq mi, with 14,428 sq mi located in South Dakota. Bankfull capacity of...
A computer program incorporating Pitzer's equations for calculation of geochemical reactions in brines
Niel Plummer, D.L. Parkhurst, G.W. Fleming, S.A. Dunkle
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4153
The program named PHRQPITZ is a computer code capable of making geochemical calculations in brines and other electrolyte solutions to high concentrations using the Pitzer virial-coefficient approach for activity-coefficient corrections. Reaction-modeling capabilities include calculation of (1) aqueous speciation and mineral-saturation index, (2) mineral solubility, (3) mixing and titration of aqueous...
Ground-water flow near two radioactive-waste-disposal areas at the Western New York Nuclear Service Center, Cattaraugus County, New York: Results of flow simulation

1988, Open-File Report 88-333
Data were collected during a 4-yr study of sediment sources in four drainage basins tributary to Lake Tahoe, California-Nevada. The study areas include the Blackwood, General, Edgewood, and Logan House Creek basins. Data include changes in bank and bed positions at channel cross sections; results of stream-channel mapping; analyses of...
Iodine-129 in the Snake River Plain aquifer at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory, Idaho
L. J. Mann, E.W. Chew, J.S. Morton, R.B. Randolph
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4165
From 1953 to 1983, an estimated 0.01 to 0.136 Ci (curies)/year of iodine-129 were contained in wastewater generated by the ICPP (Idaho Chemical Processing Plant) at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory. The wastewater was directly discharged to the Snake River Plain aquifer through a deep disposal well until February 9,...

International strategic minerals inventory summary report; titanium
R.R. Towner, J.M. Gray, L.M. Porter
1988, Circular 930-G
Ilmenite and rutile are currently the most important titanium-bearing minerals, although anatase may be important in the future. Both ilmenite and rutile occur in hard-rock and placer deposits, but at present all rutile production and about half of the ilmenite production are from placer deposits. Anatase occurs in laterite deposits...

Alternative sources of large seasonal ground-water supplies in the headwaters of the Susquehanna River basin, New York
A. D. Randall, D. S. Snavely, T.P. Holecek, R.M. Waller
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4127
The northern divide of the Susquehanna River basin crosses 29 broad valleys that contain thick glacial deposits but are drained only by small headwater streams. Much groundwater could be withdrawn from sand and gravel deposits in these valleys with little immediate effect on streamflow. A digital model of the headwater...
Ground-water resources and simulation of flow in aquifers containing freshwater and seawater, Island County, Washington

1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4182
Aquifers in Island County, Washington, that are intruded by seawater from Puget Sound contain chloride concentrations that exceed 100 mg/L. Chloride concentrations exceeded 100 mg/L in 24 % of the wells that were drilled below sea level and sampled in August 1981, but most of the chloride concentrations did not...
Discharge ratings for control structures at McHenry Dam on the Fox River, Illinois
G. G. Fisk
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4226
Twenty-three measurement of discharge were used to determine discharge ratings for the five adjustable sluice gates, spillway and fish ladder at McHenry Dam on the Fox River in Illinois. Discharge ratings were determined for free weir, free orifice, and submerged orifice flow regimes. Hydraulic conditions that identify flow regimes at...

1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4038
Hydrologric data were used to determine the premining surface-water conditions in two small basins in the Fort Union coal region of Montana and North Dakota. The two streams. Hay Creek and West Branch Antelope Creek, are ephemeral. Most of the volume and peak discharges are due to snowmelt runoff. Little...
