Gravel resources, urbanization, and future land use, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado
James M. Soule, Harold R. Fitch
1974, Open-File Report 74-178
An assessment of gravel needs in Front Range Urban Corridor markets to 2000 A.D., based on forecast population increases and urbanization, indicates that adequate resources to meet anticipated needs are potentially available, if future land use does not preclude their extraction. Because of urban encroachment onto gravel-bearing lands, this basic...

1974, Water Data Report GA-73-1
Water resources data for the 1973 water year for Georgia include records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial record stations, miscellaneous sites, and records of water-quality data on the chemical and physical characteristics of surface-water as well as records for a few pertinent gaging and water-quality stations...
Search for geothermal seismic noise in the East Mesa area, Imperial Valley, California
Hariharaiyer Mahadeva Iyer
1974, Open-File Report 74-96
The U. S. Geological Survey made seismic noise measurements in the East Mesa area of Imperial Valley, California, to find out if a noise anomaly was associated with the Mesa thermal anomaly. Thirty-three locations were occupied in the area using slow-speed tape-recording seismic systems. One of the stations (CEN) was...

The 1971 drought in South Florida and its effect on the hydrologic system
Manuel A. Benson, Richard Alfred Gardner
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-12
The 1971 dry season rainfall in south Florida was low enough that the public media and concerned public officials unanimously characterized the event as a severe drought.Rainfall over all of south Florida during the 1970 wet season and the 1970-71 dry season was less than 85 percent of normal, as...
Effects of land use and retention practices on sediment yields in the Stony Brook basin, New Jersey
Lawrence J. Mansue, Peter W. Anderson
1974, Water Supply Paper 1798-L
The average annual rate of suspended-sediment discharge of the Stony Brook at Princeton, N.J. (44.5 square miles) is about 8,800 tons, or 200 tons per square mile. Annual yields within the basin, which is in the Piedmont Lowlands section of the Piedmont physiographic province in west-central New Jersey, range from...
Estimated permeabilities for soils in the Sacramento Valley, California
Gilbert L. Bertoldi
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-51
Analysis of engineering and hydrologic data from 15 previous soil studies, analysis of particle-size distribution, and analysis of descriptions of soil profiles show that 50 percent of the Sacramento Valley area has soils having permeabilities characterized by infiltration rates of less than 2 feet per day (0.6 meter per day)....

1974, Water Supply Paper 1850-D
Maximum discharges during the floods of June 1965 in the Arkansas River basin in Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexico were greater than those previously known at 49 of the 137 locations where flood information was obtained. Property damage exceeded $60 million, and 16 lives were lost. At many sites, peak...
Hydrologic analysis of the Mojave River, California, using a mathematical model
Timothy J. Durbin, W. F. Hardt
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-17
The channel of the Mojave Rive'r in California is normally dry and is highly permeable over much of its length, and large quantities of water from natural floodflows in the channel infiltrate through the channel bed to the underlying ground-water body. From 1930 to 1972 only 18 floods at The...
