Water resources are abundant in Marion County, Indiana, and have been developed for public and industrial supply, energy generation, irrigation, and recreation. The largest water withdrawals are from surface water, and the two largest water uses are public supply and cooling water for electrical-generating plants. Water-resources programs in the county...

1990, Water Supply Paper 2368-A
This report describes the physical and human environment and coal-mining history of west-central Indiana, with emphasis on six small watersheds selected for study of the hydrologic effects of surface coal mining. The report summarizes information on the geology, geomorphology, soils, climate, hydrology, water use, land use, population, and coal-mining history...
Effects of surface coal mining and reclamation on the geohydrology of six small watersheds in West-Central Indiana
Jeffrey D. Martin, Richard F. Duwelius, Charles G. Crawford
1990, Water Supply Paper 2368-B
Six small watersheds in west-central Indiana were selected for study of the hydrologic effects of surface coal mining and reclamation. The watersheds include mined and reclaimed, mined and unreclaimed, and unmined agricultural land uses and are each less than 3 square miles in area. Surface-water, ground-water, and meteorologic data for...
Ground-water flow and solute movement to drain laterals, western San Joaquin Valley, California; I, Geochemical assessment
S. J. Deverel, J.L. Fio
1990, Open-File Report 90-136
A study was undertaken to quantitatively evaluate the hydrologic processes affecting the chemical and isotopic composition of drain-lateral water in a drained agricultural field in the western San Joaquin Valley, California. The results of chemical and isotopic analysis of the samples and analysis of hydraulic-head data and drain-lateral flow data...

Geohydrology and water quality of the Roubidoux Aquifer, northeastern Oklahoma
Scott C. Christenson, David L. Parkhurst, Roy W. Fairchild
1990, Open-File Report 90-570
The Roubidoux aquifer is an important source of freshwater for public supplies, commerce, industry, and rural water districts in northeastern Oklahoma. Ground-water withdrawals from the aquifer in 1981 were estimated to be 4.8 million gallons per day, of which about 90 percent was withdrawn in Ottawa County. Wells drilled at...
Plan of study for the Ohio-Indiana carbonate-bedrock and glacial- aquifer system
E. F. Bugliosi
1990, Open-File Report 90-151
The major aquifers of 35,000 sq mi area in western Ohio and eastern Indiana consist of Silurian and Devonian carbonate bedrock and Quaternary glacial deposits. These bedrock units and glacial deposits have been designated for study as part of the U.S. Geological Survey 's Regional Aquifer System Analysis program, a...
