Appraisal of shallow ground-water resources, Pueblo Army Depot, Colorado
Frank A. Welder, R. Theodore Hurr
1972, Open-File Report 72-447
The water supply for the Pueblo Army Depot, 15 miles wast of Pueblo, Colo., is obtained from wells that tap an aquifer in terrace alluvium. Withdrawals have resulted in a water-level decline of 27 feet, which adversely affects the discharge rate of individual wells. Furthermore, excessive pumpage has resulted in...

The hydraulic geometry of some Alaskan streams south of the Yukon River
William W. Emmett
1972, Open-File Report 72-108
Channel geometry surveys were conducted to determine bankfull stage, discharge, and other hydraulic parameters at 22 locations along the proposed route of the trans-Alaska pipeline corridor south of the Yukon River. Combined with the records from gaging stations located at some of the sites, the data are sufficient to describe...
Floods in the summer of 1971 in south-central Alaska
Robert D. Lamke
1972, Open-File Report 72-215
Floods and high water occurred throughout the summer of 1971 in south-central Alaska. Snow cover, 150 percent of average, in the mountains on May 1 caused local snowmelt floods from mid-May to mid-July. The peak discharge of 265,000 cfs (cubic feet per second) on July 15 at Copper River near...
The nature and extent of peat deposits and possible effects of peat mining on manmade features and springs near Mescalero, New Mexico
F. P. Lyford
1972, Open-File Report 72-238
A study was made during May 1971 by the U.S. Geological Survey to: (1) determine the nature and extent of peat deposits near Mescalero, N. Mex. ; (2) determine whether mining of the peat will affect the stability of three manmade features near the deposits; (3) determine whether peat mining...

Water in St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands
O. J. Cosner
1972, Open-File Report 72-78
Water for domestic and municipal supply on St. John, in the past, has been obtained from rain catchments, dug wells, and barge shipments from St. Thomas and Puerto Rico. As a result of this study, small ground-water supplies have been developed for the Virgin Islands National Park. Ground water occurs...

Potential transport of sediment from Enloe Reservoir by the Similkameen and Okanogan rivers, Washington
L. M. Nelson
1972, Open-File Report 72-269
This study was undertaken to determine the probable effects on the Similkameen and Okanogan Rivers of the removal, transport, and deposition of sediment now deposited behind Enloe Dam on the Similkameen River, if the dam were removed. Under existing conditions of sediment transport, the average annual suspended-sediment discharges at three streamflow-measuring...
