Variation in concentration of selected water-quality constituents in the Sacramento River at Bend Bridge, California
Linda J. Britton, R. C. Averett
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-14
During an intensive water-quality study of the Sacramento River at Bend Bridge, Calif., from September 4 to 7, 1973, differences in selected water-quality constituent concentrations were evaluated at three locations at a single site in the river for two 24-hour periods. Water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance, selected major...

Preliminary investigation of the elemental variation and diagenesis of a tabular uranium deposit, La Sal Mine, San Juan County, Utah
Robert A. Brooks, John A. Campbell
1976, Open-File Report 76-287
Ore in the La Sal mine, San Juan County, Utah, occurs as a typical tabular-type uranium deposit of the-Colorado Plateau. Uranium-vanadium occurs in the Salt Wash Member of the Jurassic Morrison Formation. Chemical and petrographic analyses were used to determine elemental variation and diagenetic aspects across the orebody. Vanadium is...

Outline of the water resources of the Status Creek basin, Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington
Dee Molenaar
1976, Open-File Report 76-808
On the Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington, only about 5 percent of the Satus Creek basin--in the relatively flat eastern lowland adjacent to and including part of the Yakima River lowland--is agriculturally developed, mostly through irrigation. Because the basin 's streams do not contain adequate water for irrigation, most irrigation is...
Teton Dam flood of June 1976, Parker quadrangle, Idaho
Cecil Albert Thomas, Herman A. Ray
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 567
The failure of Teton Dam caused extreme flooding along the Teton River, Henrys Fork, and Snake River in southeastern Idaho on June 5-8, 1976. No flooding occurred downstream from American Falls, Reservoir. The inundated areas and maximum water-surface elevations are shown in a series of 17 hydrologic atlases. The area...
Effects of drain wells on the ground-water quality of the western Snake Plain Aquifer, Idaho
Joe A. Moreland, Harold R. Seitz, Albert Mario LaSala
1976, Open-File Report 76-673
Approximately 3,100 drain wells injects irrigation waste water, urban runoff, septic-tank effluent, and industrial waste water into the Snake Plain aquifer in Minidoka, Gooding, Jerome, and Lincoln Counties, Idaho. About 29,000 acre-feet of irrigation waste water, 100 acre-feet of urban runoff, 400 acre-feet of septic-tank effluent, and 1,000 acre-feet of...

Documentation of programs that compute 1) static tilts for a spatially variable slip distribution, and 2) quasi-static tilts produced by an expanding dislocation loop with a spatially variable slip distribution
Stuart McHugh
1976, Open-File Report 76-578
The material in this report is concerned with the effects of a vertically oriented rectangular dislocation loop on the tilts observed at the free surface of an elastic half-space. Part I examines the effect of a spatially variable static strike-slip distribution across the slip surface. The tilt components as a...

Water resources of the Bighorn basin, northwestern Wyoming
Marlin E. Lowry, H. W. Lowham, Gregory C. Lines
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 512
This 2-sheet map report includes the part of the Bighorn Basin and adjacent mountains in northwestern Wyoming. Water-bearing properties of the geologic units are summarized. The hydrogeologic map illustrates the distribution of wells in the different units and gives basic data on the yields of wells, depth of wells, depth...
Quality-of-water data, Palm Beach County, Florida, 1970-1975
Wesley L. Miller, Arthur C. Lietz
1976, Open-File Report 76-784
One of the most pressing problems of Palm Beach County, Florida, is the present and potential contamination of the surface and ground-water resources. The canals which dissect the urban and agricultural areas are convenient receptacles for storm-water runoff, sewage effluent, and agricultural wastes. Contaminants in the canals may enter the...
Water resources of the Big Fork River watershed, north-central Minnesota
