1973, Open-File Report 73-142
A flood insurance study, made for the Federal Insurance Administration (FIA) of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is an analysis of flood inundation frequency for all flood plains within the corporate limits of the community being studied. The study is an application of surveying, hydrology, and hydraulics...
Hydrologic characteristics of Alder Creek, Iron County, Wisconsin
B. K. Holmstrom, W.A. Gebert, Ronald G. Borman
1973, Open-File Report 74-1049
The purpose of this study was to determine the hydrologic characteristics of Alder Creek, Iron County, Wisconsin, which are needed by water-resource planners to evaluate a reservoir site proposed by the Whitecap Mountain Corporation on Alder Creek. The hydrologic characteristics estimated were the mean flows, low flows, flood peaks, suspended-sediment...
Water resources of the Clinton River basin, southeastern Michigan

Artificial recharge in the Waterman Canyon-East Twin Creek area, San Bernardino County, California
J. W. Warner, J. A. Moreland
1973, Open-File Report 73-358
This is a study of the feasibility of recharging, in the Waterman Canyon-East Twin Creek area, imported water from northern California by way of the State Water Project beginning in 1972. The feasibility of recharging 30,000 acre-feet of water a year in the Waterman Canyon-East Twin Creek area will depend...

Geologic appraisal of Paradox basin salt deposits for water emplacement
Robert J. Hite, Stanley William Lohman
1973, Open-File Report 73-114
Thick salt deposits of Middle Pennsylvanian age are present in an area of 12,000 square miles in the Paradox basin of southeast Utah and southwest Colorado. The deposits are in the Paradox Member of the Hermosa Formation. The greatest thickness of this evaporite sequence is in a troughlike depression adjacent...
Preliminary photointerpretation map of landslide and other surficial deposits of the Concord 15-minute quadrangle and the Oakland West, Richmond, and part of the San Quentin 7 1/2-minute quadrangles, Contra Costa and Alameda Counties, California
T. H. Nilsen
1973, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 493
This map presents preliminary information about one aspect of the physical environment necessary to sound land-use planning- the nature and distribution of surficial deposits. Because surficial deposits are common and well developed in much of the bay region, it is useful to know how and why they have formed, as...
