Detergents and associated contaminants in ground water at three public-supply well fields in southwestern Suffolk County, Long Island, New York
Nathaniel M. Perlmutter, A.A. Guerrera
1970, Water Supply Paper 2001-B
Sampling of groups of small-diameter shallow observation wells and nearby public-supply wells screened in the upper glacial aquifer at three well fields showed that detergents (MBAS) were distributed through almost the entire saturated thickness of the aquifer. Concentrations of MBAS in water from all the wells sampled ranged from less...
Water resources of the Redwood River watershed, southwestern Minnesota
Wayne A. Van Voast, L.A. Jerabek, R.P. Novitzki
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 345
The Redwood River watershed contains 739 square miles underlain by glacial drift and sedimentary and crystalline rocks. The land surface slopes gently northeastward and eastward from altitudes greater than 1900 feet at the southwestern edge to less than 850 feet at the mouth of the Redwood River in the east. The...

Schmidt hammer test method for field determination of physical properties of zeolitized tuff
John R. Ege, Danny R. Miller, Walter Danilchik
1970, Open-File Report 70-117
The L-type Schmidt hammer is a hand-carried impact instrument that was originally designed and developed to test the compressive strength of concrete. When properly impacted against a stiff material the device measures the amount of rebound of a spring-loaded hammer, with the rebound of the hammer being directly proportional to...
Economic evaluation of a marble deposit and a kyanite deposit northeast of Al Lith, southern Hijaz quadrangle, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia - Part I, Marble deposit on Wadi Minsah: Part II, Kyanite deposit near Wadi Ad Arj
David L. Gaskill
1970, Open-File Report 70-133
Nearly pure, white and gray banded calcite marble, 40 to 170 meters thick, crops out in three hogback ridges aggregating about 1200 meters in length, located 155 kilometers southeast of Jiddah. The ridges are aligned along a belt over 2.5 kilometers long. The marble is steeply inclined and folded between...
Geologic map of the Arvada quadrangle, Colorado
Robert M. Lindvall
1970, Open-File Report 70-198
Many of the engineering-geologic problems in the Arvada quadrangle are related to the unconsolidated surficial deposits, which mantle the bedrock to depths of as much as 40 or 50 feet. In this report most of the emphasis is placed on the map distribution of these materials and on a description...

Hydraulic tests in hole UA-1 and water inflow into an underground chamber, Amchitka Island, Alaska
Wilbur C. Ballance
1970, Open-File Report 70-16
Hole UA-1 was center punched (a small-diameter exploratory hole drilled ahead of the large-diameter emplacement hole) from 1,524.0 to 1,981.2 meters (5,000 to 6,500 feet) and hydraulically tested to determine an ideal location for mining a chamber. Fifteen zones were tested; minor amounts of water bypassed the packers during five...
