An assessment of the hydrologic information required for the U.S. Bureau of Land Management-U.S. Geological Survey coal-hydrology program in the West
Richard A. Herbert
1983, Open-File Report 82-1012
In 1974, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management began the Energy Minerals Rehabilitation Inventory and Analysis (EMRIA) Program, now known as the Coal Hydrologic Investigations Program, to collect detailed information on water and other resources of proposed coal-lease areas. The U.S. Geological Survey has been collecting water-resource information for the...
Ground-water quality data for Oklahoma, 1981
Dale M. Ferree
1983, Open-File Report 83-686
The U.S. Geological Survey has collected data on Oklahoma's ground-water resources since 1934. Most of these data were collected as part of specific ground-water studies conducted in cooperation with various Federal, State, and local agencies. Ground-water quality data, as well as data on construction, yield, water levels, and other physical...
Estimation of nonpoint sources of phosphorus for lakes in the Puget Sound region, Washington
Robert J. Gilliom
1983, Open-File Report 82-161
Control of eutrophication of lakes in watersheds undergoing development is facilitated by estimates of the amounts of phosphorus (P) that reach the lakes from areas under various types of land use. Using a mass-balance model, the writer calculated P loadings from present-day P concentrations measured in lake water and from...

Microcumpter computation of water quality discharges
Dennis R. Helsel
1983, Open-File Report 82-901
A fully prompted program (SEDQ) has been developed to calculate daily and instantaneous water quality (QW) discharges. It is written in a version of BASIC, and requires inputs of gage heights, discharge rating curve, shifts, and water quality concentration information. Concentration plots may be modified interactively using the display screen....

John E. Fish, Carmen R. Causaras, T.H. O’Donnell
1983, Open-File Report 83-134
To provide water-resource information for Hendry County, Florida , geologic test holes were drilled in the surficial aquifer, and an extensive inventory was compiled of wells in the surficial aquifer and deep artesian aquifers. This report provides: (1) records for 788 selected wells and test holes including location , construction,...
Water-resources investigations of the U.S. Geological Survey in the Souris-Red Rivers basin in Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota
J. E. Heisel
1983, Open-File Report 83-218
Information obtained on water resources by Federal and State agencies in the Souris-Red Rivers basin along the Canadian border in the midwestern United States is available for analysis to address flood, drought, and supply problems. It consists of streamflows, ground water measurements, and quality of water determinations. This summary contains...
Garnet peridotites from Williams kimberlites, north-central Montana, U.S.A
