Ground water in the Harrisburg-Halsey area, southern Willamette Valley, Oregon
F. J. Frank
1976, Water Supply Paper 2040
The Harrisburg-Halsey area lies between the Cascade and Coast Ranges in the southern Willamette Valley in northwestern Oregon. The area consists of approximately 350 square miles (910 km2) and includes a part of the lower foothills of the Coast and Cascade Ranges. Volcanic and marine sedimentary units exposed in the...

Reservoir-system model for the Willamette River basin, Oregon
James O. Shearman
1976, Circular 715-H
For nearly half a century the Willamette River in Oregon experienced severe dissolved-oxygen problems related to large loads of organically rich waste waters from industries and municipalities. Since the mid-1950 's dissolved oxygen quality has gradually improved owing to low-flow augmentation, the achievement of basinwide secondary treatment, and the use...

Stability of highwalls in surface coal mines, western Powder Ridge Basin, Wyoming and Montana
Fitzhugh T. Lee, William K. Smith, William Z. Savage
1976, Open-File Report 76-846
Preliminary results from the first part of a two-part investigation of the stability of highwalls in open-pit coal mines in the Fort Union Formation of the western Powder River Basin of Wyoming and Montana indicate that these highwalls are subject to time-dependent deformation. Field investigations and laboratory physical-properties tests of...
