Hydrologic evaluation of a hypothetical coal-mining site near Chrisney, Spencer County, Indiana
John S. Zogorski, Daniel S. Ramey, Paul W. Lambert, Jeffrey D. Martin, Robert E. Warner
1980, Open-File Report 80-1107
Protecting the water resources of the Nation is a major emphasis of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act, PL 95-87. Permanent regulations established for this Act by the Office of Surface Mining (OSM) require the issuance of a permit before mining begins. An application for a mining permit must...
Cross sections of the Hudson River estuary from Troy to New York City, New York
D.A. Stedfast
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-24
Data on channel geometry of the Hudson River estuary at 125 cross sections between the Federal Dam at Troy and the norhtern limits of New York City (133 miles) are presented for use in hydraulic modeling, tidal studies, traveltime and water-quality studies, and other uses requiring knowledge of Hudson River...
Geochemical-exploration studies in the Coeur d'Alene district, Idaho and Montana
Garland Bayard Gott, John B. Cathrall
1980, Professional Paper 1116
The principal ore deposits in the Coeur d'Alene district are lead-zinc-silver replacement veins in Precambrian rocks of the Belt Supergroup. The main ore minerals are galena, tetrahedrite, and sphalerite. The host rocks are mainly quartzite, siltite, and argillite. Cretaceous quartz monzonite locally intrudes the Beltrocks. The geochemical investigations reported here...
Water quality of four lakes in Lakeville, Minnesota
L. H. Tornes, M.R. Have
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-66
Water-quality characteristics were determined for four selected lakes to provide background data for evaluating changes that may occur in the lakes because of urbanization. Precipitation of calcium carbonate is suggested by high pH values and a decrease in the calcium concentration when magnesium, sodium, and chloride concentrations increase. Pollution is...
Preimpoundment water quality of the Wild Rice River, Norman County, Minnesota
L. H. Tornes
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-79
Water samples have been collected at two sites on the Wild Rice River since September 1974 to establish baseline water-quality characteristics before construction of a reservoir for recreation and flood control near Twin Valley, Minn. A decline in water quality between the sites is shown by mean total phosphorus concentrations,...
Potentiometric map of the Winona-Tallahatta aquifer in northwestern Mississippi, fall 1979
B. E. Wasson
1980, Open-File Report 80-598
The potentiometric map of the Winona-Tallahatta aquifer is one of a series of maps, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Mississippi Department of Natural Resources , Bureau of Land and Water Resources, delineating the potentiometric surfaces of the major aquifers in Mississippi. In the outcrop area...
Geothermal gradients in the Missoula and Bitterroot Valleys, west-central Montana
Robert B. Leonard, Wayne A. Wood
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-89
Temperature-depth profiles of six cased test holes in the Missoula and Bitterroot Valleys, west-central Montana, consist of linear segments, the intersections of which commonly correspond with lithologic boundaries. Geothermal gradients commonly decreased with depth, probably as a result of compaction and higher quartz content of the deeper sedimentary deposits. There...
Chloroform contamination in part of the alluvial aquifer, Southwest Louisville, Kentucky
R. W. Davis, Edward W. Matthews
1980, Open-File Report 80-219
A well in the Ohio River alluvium at Louisville, Ky., has been yielding water with chloroform concentrations as high as 34.80 milligrams per liter since July 1975. A spill of 5,000 gallons of chloroform in 1970, 120 feet from the well, is probably the source of the contamination. The chloroform...
Quality of urban runoff, Tecolote Creek drainage area, San Diego County, California
James G. Setmire, Wesley L. Bradford
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-70
The quality of storm runoff from a 9.2-square-mile urbanized watershed, Tecolote Creek, San Diego County, Calif., was studied during nine storms from September 1976 through May 1977. Specific conductance reached 2,100 micromhos and total residue concentrations reached 2,770 milligrams per liter. The chemical oxygen demand concentration in 95% of the...
Water quality of Bear Creek basin, Jackson County, Oregon
Loren A. Wittenberg, Stuart W. McKenzie
1980, Open-File Report 80-158
Water-quality data identify surface-water-quality problems in Bear Creek basin, Jackson County, Oreg., where possible, their causes or sources. Irrigation and return-flow data show pastures are sources of fecal coliform and fecal streptococci bacteria and sinks for suspended sediment and nitrite-plus-nitrate nitrogen. Bear Creek and its tributaries have dissolved oxygen and...
Water resources and geology of the Los Coyotes Indian Reservation and vicinity, San Diego County, California
A.P. Ballog Jr., W. R. Moyle Jr.
1980, Open-File Report 80-960
The water resources of the Los Coyotes Indian Reservation, San Diego County, Calif., are sufficient to supply the limited domestic and stock-water needs of the present residents of the reservation. Surface-water runoff is derived from direct precipitation on the area and from intermittent spring flow. Groundwater occurs in the alluvial...
Ground water in the Piedmont Upland of central Maryland
Claire A. Richardson
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-18
Aquifers in a 130-square-mile area of the central Maryland and Piedmont, are shown to be the sole or principal source of water. The study area is underlain chiefly by crystalline rocks and partly by unaltered sandstones and siltstones. The groundwater is derived from local precipitation and generally occurs under water-table...
