This report provides the preliminary data for the Madison Limestone test well no. 1 in Crook County, Wyoming, including test-well history, geology of the test well, hydrologic testing, and geochemistry. The test well was drilled to a depth of 4,341 feet to determine the water-resource potential of the Madison Limestone...
Ground-water hydrology and subsurface migration of radioisotopes at a low-level solid radioactive-waste disposal site, West Valley, New York
David E. Prudic, Allan D. Randall
1977, Open-File Report 77-566
Burial trenches for disposal of solid radioactive waste at West Valley, N.Y., are excavated in till that has very low hydraulic conductivity (about 5 x 10 to the minus 8th power centimeters per second). Fractures and root tubes with chemically oxidized and (or) reduced soil in their walls extend to...

1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-4
This report presents the results of an investigation of ground-water resources in that part of the Yampa River basin between the towns of Craig and Steamboat Springs. The location of the study area is shown on the index map. The investigation was begun in 1975 by the U.S. Geological Survey...
Joints, fissures, and voids in rhyolite welded ash-flow tuff at Teton damsite, Idaho
Harold J. Prostka
1977, Open-File Report 77-211
Several kinds of joints, fissures, and voids are present in densely welded rhyolite ash-flow tuff at Teton damsite. Older fissures and voids probably were formed in the ash-flow sheet during secondary flowage, which probably was caused by differential compaction or settling over irregular topography. The younger, more abundant fissures are...
The National Water Data Exchange (NAWDEX)
Melvin D. Edwards
1977, Open-File Report 77-259
The National Water Data Exchange (NAWDEX) was established in 1976 to assist users of water data to identify, locate, and acquire needed data. NAWDEX is a confederation of water-oriented organizations working together to provide more timely and convenient access to their data. A directory of sources of water data and...

Summary of basic hydrologic data collected at Coso Hot Springs, Inyo County, California
W. R. Moyle
1977, Open-File Report 77-485
More than 200 wells and springs were visited within a 20-mile radius of Coso Hot Springs, Calif. Hydrologic and geothermal data were collected for each well or spring site. The data includes depth, chemical quality, temperature and specific conductance of water, quantity of flow, well construction, and well logs. These...

Availability of ground water in the Piscataqua and other coastal river basins southeastern New Hampshire
J. E. Cotton
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-70
This map (scale 1:125,000) is a preliminary assessment of the availability of ground water in the Piscataqua and coastal river basins in New Hampshire. It is a generalization of several hydrogeologic factors and provides a guide for ground-water exploration, which is useful in water- and land-use planning. The best aquifers...
Digital model analysis of the principal artesian aquifer, Savannah, Georgia area
H. B. Counts, R.E. Krause
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-133
A digital model of the principal artesian aquifer has been developed for the Savannah, Georgia, area. The model simulates the response of the aquifer system to various hydrologic stresses. Model results of the water levels and water-level changes are shown on maps. Computations may be extended in time, indicating changes...
Time of travel of solutes in the Tuscarawas River Basin, Ohio, August and September, 1974

1977, Open-File Report 77-23
A time-of-travel study was made on a 10.6-mile reach of the Tuscarawas River to determine average velocity and dispersion characteristics between selected points. The reach was divided into five subreaches, and a fluorescent dye used as a tracer material. At about the 50-percent flow-duration level, time-of-travel of the peak concentration...
