Hydrologic data for a subsurface waste-injection site at Mulberry, Florida; 1972-77
William Edward Wilson, David C. Parsons, R. M. Spechler
1979, Open-File Report 79-683
Since October 1972, industrial liquid waste has been injected into a brine aquifer of limestone and dolomite in Mulberry, FL., at a depth of more than 4,000 feet below land surface. During 1977, the injection rate was about 8.8 million gallons per month. To determine what effect the injected waste...
Preliminary hydrogeologic investigation of the Maxey Flats radioactive waste burial site, Fleming County, Kentucky
Harold H. Zehner
1979, Open-File Report 79-1329
Burial trenches at the Maxey Flats radioactive waste burial site , Fleming County, Ky., cover an area of about 0.03 square mile, and are located on a plateau, about 300 to 400 feet above surrounding valleys. Although surface-water characteristics are known, little information is available regarding the ground-water hydrology of...

Effects of converting sagebrush cover to grass on the hydrology of small watersheds at Boco Mountain, Colorado
Gregg C. Lusby
1979, Water Supply Paper 1532-J
Changes in runoff and sediment yield caused by changing sagebrush cover to grass cover were studied at four small watersheds in western Colorado during a 9-year period, from 1965 to 1978. Measurements of runoff and sediment yield from the four watersheds were made for 8 years, at which time two...
Hydrology and surface morphology of the Bonneville Salt Flats and Pilot Valley Playa, Utah
Gregory C. Lines
1979, Water Supply Paper 2057
The Bonneville Salt Flats and Pilot Valley are in the western part of the Great Salt Lake Desert in northwest Utah. The areas are separate, though similar, hydrologic basins, and both contain a salt crust. The Bonneville salt crust covered about 40 square miles in the fall of 1976, and...
Selected water resources data, Clarion River and Redbank Creek basins, northwestern Pennsylvania: Part 2
Theodore F. Buckwalter, Clifford H. Dodge, George R. Schiner
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-19
This report presents selected basic data collected during a study of the water resources of the Clarion River and Redbank Creek basins in northwestern Pennsylvania. Hydrologic information including data on aquifers, water levels, and yields is presented for 1,304 wells. Records for 51 springs are also given. The report contains...
Environmental features, general hydrology, and external sources of nutrients affecting Wilderness Lake, King County, Washington
N. P. Dion
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-63
A water budget prepared for Wilderness Lake, a candidate for lake-quality restoration, indicates that of the 530 acre-feet of water that enters the lake each year, 170 acre-feet is from precipitation and 360 acre-feet is from groundwater inflow. An equal amount leaves the lake, and of this, 380 acre-feet is...
Hydrology of major estuaries and sounds of North Carolina
G. L. Giese, Hugh B. Wilder, Garald G. Parker Jr.
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-46
Hydrology-related problems associated with North Carolina's major estuaries and sounds include contamination of some estuaries with municipal and industrial wastes and drainage from adjacent intensively-farmed areas, and nuisance-level algal blooms. In addition, there is excessive shoaling in some navigation channels, saltwater intrusion into usually fresh estuarine reaches, too-high or too-low...
Interim data report on the geohydrology of the proposed waste isolation pilot plant site, southeast New Mexico
Jerry W. Mercer, R.B. Orr
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-98
Data collected at the proposed Waste Isolation Pilot Plant site in southeast New Mexico through September 1977 help define hydrologic conditions at the contact between the Permian Rustler and Salado Formations, and Culebra and Magenta Dolomite Members of the Rustler Formation. Preliminary calculations of transmissivity along the Rustler-Salado contact range...
Tree rings as indicators of hydrologic change in the Great Dismal Swamp, Virginia and North Carolina
Richard L. Phipps, D.L. Ierley, C.P. Baker
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-136
Analyses of tree rings of large, canopy loblolly pines (Pinus taeda L.,) growing near a drainage ditch in the Great Dismal Swamp have indicated that the tree rings are datable and hydrologically (climatically) sensitive. Climatic and prior growth factors in regression explained 87 and 71 percent of the variance of...
Effect of Surface Coal Mining on the Hydrology of Crooked and Turkey Creek Basins, Jefferson County, Alabama
Celso Puente, John G. Newton
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-91
Streamflow, sediment yield, and water quality were monitored from October 1975 through May 1977 to determine the impact of surface coal mining on the hydrology of Crooked and Turkey Creek basins in Jefferson County, Alabama. The basins are in the northeast part of the Warrior coal field. Coal is and...
Ground-water conditions and potential for artificial recharge in Lucerne Valley, San Bernardino County, California
Donald H. Schaefer
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-118
The water level in two areas of Lucerne Valley has declined more than 100 feet since 1917, including 60 feet from 1954 to 1976. These declines are the result of pumping for the irrigation of alfalfa. The lowering of water levels has caused many shallow domestic wells to go dry....
Ground-water quality in Bannock, Bear Lake, Caribou, and part of Power counties, southeastern Idaho
Harold R. Seitz, Ralph F. Norvitch
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-14
This report provides information about the current quality of ground waters in southeastern Idaho and discusses the natural and manmade environmental controls on that quality. This information will be useful in planning and monitoring the development and use of the ground-water resources of southeastern Idaho.The southeastern corner of Idaho, as...
