Quality of rivers of the United States, 1975 water year; based on the National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN)
John C. Briggs, John F. Ficke
1977, Open-File Report 78-200
The National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) was established by the U.S. Geological Survey to provide a nationally uniform basis for continuously assessing the quality of U.S. rivers. Stations generally are at the downstream end of hydrologic accounting units in order to measure the quantity and quality of water flowing...
Technique for estimating depth of 100-year floods in Tennessee
Charles R. Gamble, James G. Lewis
1977, Open-File Report 77-668
Preface: A method is presented for estimating the depth of the loo-year flood in four hydrologic areas in Tennessee. Depths at 151 gaging stations on streams that were not significantly affected by man made changes were related to basin characteristics by multiple regression techniques. Equations derived from the analysis can...

1977, Open-File Report 77-583
Landfills operated by the towns of Babylon and Islip in southwest and central Suffolk County, N.Y., contain urban refuse , incinerated garbage, and scavenger (cesspool) waste; some industrial refuse is deposited at the Babylon site. The Islip landfill was started in 1933, the Babylon landfill in 1947. The landfills are...
Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1975
C.E. Ranzau
1977, Open-File Report 77-274
Detailed rainfall-runoff computations, including hydrographs and mass curves, are presented for nine storm periods during the 1975 water year in drainage basins in the Houston, Texas metropolitan area. The information will be useful in determining the extent to which progressive urbanization will affect the yield and mode of occurrence of...
Quantity and quality of drainage from the Argo Tunnel and other sources related to metal mining in Gilpin, Clear Creek and Park Counties, Colorado
Dennis A. Wentz
1977, Open-File Report 77-734
Eighteen metal-mine drainage sources have been located in that part of Gilpin, Clear Creek, and Park Counties, Colo., lying within the Missouri River basin. At least 13 of these sources are known to contain high acidity and (or) trace-element concentrations or to contribute water to adversely affected streams. From January...

Reconnaissance hydrology of Portage Glacier basin, Alaska
L.R. Mayo, Chester Zenone, Dennis Trabant
1977, Hydrologic Atlas 583
Early reports of conditions in Portage Pass, Alaska, provide evidence that Portage Glacier was formerly larger and thicker. Past conditions, recent history, current retreat, and possible future changes are summarized from an analysis of reports, photographs of the glacier (1939, 1950, and annually since about 1960), and data on snow...
