Susceptibility of coastal plain aquifers to contamination, Fairfax County, Virginia; a computer composite map
Richard H. Johnston, J. Nicholas Van Driel
1978, Open-File Report 78-265
A map is presented that classifies the Coastal Plain of Fairfax County, Virginia according to the susceptibility of the principal sand aquifers to contamination from surface sources. The following classification is used: (1) areas where leachate can readily enter the principal sand aquifers, (2) areas offering great natural protection against...
Water-level declines in the Madison area, Dane County, Wisconsin
R.S. McLeod
1978, Open-File Report 78-936
The water supply for the city of Madison, Wisconsin, and for surrounding municipalities is obtained from the ground-water reservoir that underlies the area. This ground-water reservoir is composed of an upper aquifer and an underlying sandstone aquifer. High-capacity water-supply wells pump from the sandstone aquifer. Pumping from the sandstone aquifer has...
Flood-plain delineation for Occoquan River, Wolf Run, Sandy Run, Elk Horn Run, Giles Run, Kanes Creek, Racoon Creek, and Thompson Creek, Fairfax County, Virginia
Pat LeRoy Soule
1978, Open-File Report 79-215
Water-surface profiles of the 25-year and 100-year floods and maps on which the 25-, 50-, and 100-year flood boundaries are delineated for streams in southwestern Fairfax County tributary to the Occoquan River, that part of the Occoquan River within Fairfax County and those streams on Mason Neck tributary to the...
Ore deposits of the Gilman District, Eagle County, Colorado
T. S. Lovering, Ogden Tweto, T.G. Lovering
1978, Professional Paper 1017
The Gilman mining district, known also in the past as the Red Cliff district, is in the mountains of southeastern Eagle County, west-central Colorado. The district is the leading source of zinc in Colorado and one of the major base-metal mining districts in the State. As valued at the time...
A seismic refraction experiment performed in the Melones Reservoir region of the metamorphic belt, central California
James N. Murdock, John C. Roller
1978, Open-File Report 78-131
A seismic refraction experiment was conducted in the metamorphic belt of central California during May 1972. Seven charges were fired during the experiment. Three seismic refraction lines, 75 to 125 km long, were made in the belt. Also, data were gathered for regional travel-time calibrations. The experimental data are presented....
An instrument system for long-term sediment transport studies on the continental shelf
Bradford Butman, David W. Folger
1978, Open-File Report 78-1019
A bottom-mounted instrument system has been designed and built to monitor processes of bottom-sediment movement on the Continental Shelf. The system measures bottom current speed and direction, pressure, temperature, and light transmission, and photographs the bottom. The instrument operates in a burst sample mode. The system can be deployed for...
Hydrologic evaluation of part of central Volusia County, Florida
P. W. Bush
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-89
Municipal wells close to the Atlantic Coast cannot be expected to supply the steadily increasing population of Volusia County, Florida, indefinitely without causing saltwater intrusion problems. Therefore, new wells will be drilled away from the coast. The source of water for the planned artesian aquifer well field will be leakage...
Chemical analyses of surface water in Illinois, 1958–74—Volume III, Ohio River tributaries and Mississippi River tributaries south of the Illinois River basin
R. W. Healy, L.G. Toler
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-24
Samples of surface water were collected and analyzed by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and its predecessor, the Stream Pollution Control Bureau of the Illinois Department of Public Health. The results for the period 1958 to 1974 are presented in tabular form and the history of sampling and analytical methods...
Documentation for alinement arrays, Motagua fault, Guatemala
R.C. Bucknam
1978, Open-File Report 78-880
The following brief report documents the locations and surveying data for four alinement arrays (fig. 1, p.-7-19) across the Motagua fault, Guatemala, which were installed to measure afterslip occurring along the fault. The arrays represent new monuments installed in areas where displacements had been measured as early as four days...
Fission-track dating of the Climax and Gold Meadows stocks, Nye County, Nevada
Charles W. Naeser, Florian Maldonado
1978, Open-File Report 78-419
Fission-track ages indicate an age of 101 m.y. for the Climax stock and a minimum age of 93.6 m.y. for the Gold Meadows stock, both at the Nevada Test Site, Nye County, Nevada. Younger fission-track ages for apatite concentrates suggest that the stocks have been within 4 km of the...
Principal facts for a gravity survey of the Gerlach Extension Known Geothermal Resource Area, Pershing County, Nevada
Donald L. Peterson, Harold E. Kaufmann
1978, Open-File Report 78-107-B
During July 1977, fifty-one gravity stations were obtained in the Gerlach Extension Known Geothermal Resource Area and vicinity, northwestern Nevada. Elevations for twenty-seven stations were estimated from lake bed topographic contours. Horizontal positions for these stations were determined from topographic maps and vehicle odometer....
ADEPT: a program to estimate depth to magnetic basement from sampled magnetic profiles
Jeffrey D. Phillips
1978, Open-File Report 79-367
A fortran program computes depth to magnetic basement from the spatially varying autocorrelation function of a sampled magnetic profile. The depth calculation assumes a particular form for the autocorrelation function, and this assumption is tested against the measured autocorrelation function in order to reject invalid depth estimates....
Hydrologic data for Mountain Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1976
H.D. Buckner
1978, Open-File Report 77-800
The total drainage area of Mountain Creek, Texas, is 304 sq mi. The stream-gaging stations on Mountain Creek near Cedar Hill and Walnut Creek near Mansfield provide hydrologic data to define runoff characteristics from small drainage basins. They also serve as index stations for inflow into the reservoir and provide...
The structure and stratigraphy of the Pen Argyl Member of the Martinsburg Formation in Lehigh and Berks counties, Pennsylvania
Gary George Lash
1978, Open-File Report 78-391
The Pen Argyl Member, the upper claystone slate member of the Martinsburg Formation, was studied in three quadrangles in Lehigh and Berks Counties, Pennsylvania. Graptolites collected from the Pen Argyl Member at Lehigh Gap indicate a lower Upper Ordovician (Edenian-Maysvillian) age for the Pen Argyl Member. The Pen Argyl Member...
