Ground-water resources of the Holloman Air Force Base well field area, 1967, New Mexico
W. C. Ballance, Robert E. Mattick
1976, Open-File Report 76-807
Water consumption at Holloman Air Force Base (HAFB), N. Mex., reached an all time high in 1964 and 1965. Further increases in withdrawal without expansion of pumping facilities will hasten the chemical deterioration of the ground water pumped from the well fields. Saline water in the well-field area is present...

Magnitude and frequency of floods in North Carolina, technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods on natural streams in North Carolina
N.M. Jackson Jr.
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-17
Methods are provided to estimate the magnitude and frequency of floods on natural North Carolina streams with drainage areas greater than 0.5 square mile (1.3 square kilometers). For 257 gaged sites, the magnitudes of floods having recurrence intervals from 2 to 100 years are provided in tables. For ungaged sites,...
Land and natural resource information and some potential environmental effects of surface mining of coal in the Gillette area, Wyoming
William Richard Keefer, R. F. Hadley
1976, Circular 743
Campbell County, along the east margin of the Powder River Basin in northeastern Wyoming, contains more coal than any other county in the United States. The principal deposit is the Wyodak-Anderson coal bed. The bed is 50-100 feet (15-30 meters) thick over large areas, lies less than 200 feet (60...

Ground-water quality in the Davie Landfill, Broward County, Florida
H. C. Mattraw Jr.
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-56
Ground-water adjacent to a disposal pond for septic tank sludge, oil, and grease at the Davie landfill, Broward County, Florida was tested for a variety of ground-water contaminants. Three wells adjacent to the disposal pond yielded water rich in nutrients, organic carbon and many other chemical constituents. Total coliform bacteria...
Ground water favorability and surficial geology of the Portland area, Maine
Glenn C. Prescott
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 561
This hydrologic atlas describes the surficial geology and groundwater resources of about 240 square miles in Cumberland County, Maine. The most productive aquifers are outwash and ice-contact deposits. Their locations and the most favorable areas for obtaining large yields from them are indicated on the map. The largest reported yield...
Technique for estimating magnitude and frequency of floods in Kentucky
Curtis H. Hannum
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-62
Flood magnitude and frequency relations applicable to unregulated stream in Kentucky are based on flood data at 117 gaging stations in Kentucky and 14 in adjacent states having 10 or more years of record. Equations that related flood magnitude and frequency to contributing drainage area in 16 geographic areas may...
Hydrologic relations between lakes and aquifers in a recharge area near Orlando, Florida
William F. Lichtler, G.H. Hughes, F. L. Pfischner
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-65
The three lakes investigated in Orange County, Florida, gain water from adjoining water-table aquifer and lose water to Floridan aquifer by downward leakage. Net seepage (net exchange of water between lake and aquifers) can be estimated by equation S = AX + BY, where S is net seepage, X represents...

Measurement and prediction of sediment yields in Wisconsin streams
S. M. Hindall
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-54
Sediment data of some form have been collected by the U.S. Geological Survey at 118 stream-gaging sites throughout Wisconsin, beginning in 1935. The average concentration of suspended sediment for Wisconsin streams is low in comparison with that of many streams in the United States—110 milligrams per litre for Wisconsin, as...
A model for calculating effects of liquid waste disposal in deep saline aquifer
Inc. Intercomp Resource Development and Engineering
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-61
Injection of liquid industrial wastes into confined underground saline aquifers can offer a good disposal alternative from both environmental and economic considerations. One of the needs in choosing from among several disposal alternatives is a means of evaluating the influence such an injection will have on the aquifer system. This...
Water-quality investigation, Eel River, California
George A. Irwin
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-5
This report summarizes selected water-quality data collected in the Eel River, Calif., during a reconnaissance study from November 1971 through January 1975. It also includes a summary of the major inorganic chemical data collected near Dos Rios, at South Fork, and at Scotia since the early 1950's. The recent reconnaissance...
Water-quality investigation, Salinas River, California
George A. Irwin
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-110
Concentrations of dissolved solids in the Salinas River are variable and range from 164 to 494 milligrams per liter near Bradley and from 170 to 1,090 milligrams per liter near Spreckels. Higher concentrations near Spreckels are caused mainly by sewage inflow about 150 feet (50 meters) upstream. Concentrations of nitrogen,...
