The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the implementation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of. "The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944" and "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. The Soil Conservation Service has found a...
Progress report on uranium investigations in the Zane Hills area, west-central Alaska
Thomas P. Miller, Raymond L. Elliott
1977, Open-File Report 77-428
The Zane Hills pluton underlies a mountainous area of about 460 km2 in west-central Alaska and is locally enriched in uranium and thorium (Miller and Ferrians, 1968; Miller, 1970; Staatz and Miller, 1976). While over 90 percent of the pluton consists of granodiorite with average contents of uranium and thorium,...
Equation for estimating regional flood depth-frequency relation for Virginia
E.M. Miller
1977, Open-File Report 77-396
A regional relation is defined for estimating the depth of flooding on natural-flow streams in Virginia having a recurrence interval of 100-years. Drainage area is the only independent variable required....

1976 water-quality data in Bear Creek basin, Medford, Oregon
Stuart W. McKenzie, Loren A. Wittenberg
1977, Open-File Report 77-90
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Rogue Valley Council of Governments, is studying surface-water-quality problems and their causes in the Bear Creek basin of southwestern Oregon. Two specific areas of investigation include: measurements of the quality and quantity of water in the irrigation canals and drainage system and...

Heavy metal discharges into Shasta Lake and Keswick reservoirs on the upper Sacramento River, California; a reconnaissance during low flow
D. Kirk Nordstrom, Everett A. Jenne, Robert C. Averett
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-49
Four out of seventeen streams entering the Shasta-Keswick Reservoir system in California contribute up to 94 percent of the heavy metal load into the upper Sacramento River under the low flow conditions which existed in the fall of 1974. Of these four streams, three contain acid mine drainage, with Spring...
Water resources of the Chehalis Indian Reservation, Washington
H. E. Pearson, G.T. Higgins
1977, Open-File Report 77-704
Ground water beneath the 6.6-square-mile Chehalis Indian Reservation, Wash., most of which lies on a flood plain, occurs in the alluvial and terrace sand and gravel deposits. Supplies available within the depth zone of water-level fluctuations are estimated to be between 20 and 60 times that being pumped at the...
Flood-plain delineation for Accotink Creek Basin, Fairfax County, Virginia

1977, Open-File Report 76-442
Water-surface profiles of the 25-year and 100-year floods maps on which the 25-, 50-, and 100-year flood limits are delineated for streams in the Accotink Creek basin are presented in this report. Excluded are segments of Accotink Creek within the Fort Belvoir Military Reservation. The techniques used in the computation...

Preliminary report on the quality of water in abandoned zinc mines in northeastern Oklahoma and southeastern Kansas
Stephen J. Playton, Robert Ellis Davis
1977, Open-File Report 77-163
On-site measurements of pH, specific conductance, and water temperature show that water in seven mine shafts in northeastern Oklahoma and southeastern Kansas is stratified, with pH decreasing and specific conductance and water temperature increasing as sampling depth increases. Concentrations of chemical constituents in mine-shaft water, such as dissolved solids, total...

Lithium in the brines of Fish Lake Valley and Columbus Salt Marsh, Nevada
C. L. Smith, Allen L. Meier, H.D. Downey
1977, Open-File Report 77-54
Analyses of waters-from springs in Nevada have led to the identification of an area containing anomalous amounts of lithium northwest of the Clayton Valley-area. Fish Lake Valley and Columbus Salt Marsh contain waters having, relatively high lithium and potassium concentrations. At least a part of these waters is probably derived...

Computer simulation of two-dimensional unsteady flows in estuaries and embayments by the method of characteristics : Basic theory and the formulation of the numerical method
Chintu Lai
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-85
Two-dimensional unsteady flows of homogeneous density in estuaries and embayments can be described by hyperbolic, quasi-linear partial differential equations involving three dependent and three independent variables. A linear combination of these equations leads to a parametric equation of characteristic form, which consists of two parts: total differentiation along the bicharacteristics...
