Quality of water resources of the Ouachita National Forest, Arkansas
Elizabeth F. Cole, E. E. Morris
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4166
Surface water and groundwater quality was documented in the Ouachita National Forest by collecting surface water quality data at 15 points and groundwater quality data at 11 sites from April 1984 through August 1985. The data were compared to drinking water standards and the results are tabulated. Surface water in...
Hydrogeology of the eastern part of the Salt River Valley area, Maricopa and Pinal Counties, Arizona
R. L. Laney, Mary Ellen Hahn
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4147
The Salt River Valley is a major agricultural and metropolitan area in semiarid south-central Arizona. Groundwater in the permeable sedimentary deposits underlying the area is a major water supply for agricultural, municipal, and industrial users. Groundwater levels have declined as much as 400 ft in recent years. Management of the...
Potentiometric surface, ground-water withdrawals, and recharge area for the Lisbon aquifer in Alabama, fall 1982
John S. Williams, Michael Planert, Sydney S. DeJarnette
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4120
The U.S. Geological Survey began a nationwide program in 1978, termed Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA), to study a number of the major aquifer systems that provide a significant part of the country 's water supply. One of the aquifer systems chosen for study was the thick and extensive sequence of...

Maps showing altitude of the potentiometric surface and changes in water levels in the aquifer in the Sparta and Memphis Sands in eastern Arkansas, spring 1985
Joe Edds, D. J. Fitzpatrick
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4084
Aquifers in the Tertiary Sparta and Memphis Sands are a major source of water supply for much of eastern and south-central Arkansas. Major withdrawals occur from the aquifer for industrial and public supply, with generally lesser but locally significant amounts withdrawn for agricultural uses. Water level data from wells tapping...
Potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer system in the Northwest Florida Water Management District, May 1985
Jack C. Rosenau, Paul E. Meadows
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4183
The potentiometric surface map of the Floridan aquifer system in the northwest Florida Water Management District depicts the level to which water rose in tightly cased wells that tap the Floridan aquifer system in May 1985. The surface was mapped by determining the altitude of water levels in a network...
