Richard M. O’Leary, Steven K. McDanal, Gordon W. Day, Christine McDougal, Keith Robinson
1976, Open-File Report 76-824
As an integral part of the Alaskan Mineral Resource Assessment Program, a geochemical reconnaissance survey was conducted in the McCarthy quadrangle during the summer of 1974. The investigation consisted of geochemical sampling, multielement chemical and spectrographic analyses, compilation of new and existing geochemical data, statistical evaluation of the total data...

Sediment discharge from an area of highway construction, Applemans Run basin, Columbia County, Pennsylvania
David A. Eckhardt
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-111
The effects of highway construction on stream sediment loads were studied in Applemans Run basin, Columbia County, Pa., from October 1971 to May 1974. During the investigations, about 5,200 tons of suspended-sediment were discharged from the basin. Of this amount, about 2,700 tons, or about half the total sediment discharge,...

Comprehensive monitoring of meteorology, hydraulics, and thermal regime of the San Diego Aqueduct, California
Harvey E. Jobson, Alex M. Sturrock
1976, Open-File Report 76-628
Water temperature, as well as meteorologic and hydraulic variables which influence the energy budget of the San Diego Aqueduct in southern California, were continuously monitored for a 1-year period beginning July 24, 1973. Incoming solar and atmospheric radiation, windspeed and direction, water temperature, and wet- and dry-bulb air temperatures were...

Phosphorite and other apatite-bearing sedimentary rocks in the Precambrian of northern Michigan
William F. Cannon, J. S. Klasner
1976, Circular 746
Phosphatic pebbles are widespread in basal units of the Marquette Range Supergroup (Precambrian X) in the central part of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. At one locality, a conglomeratic bed about 15 m thick averages about 15 percent P2O5, and many thinner beds are of comparable grade. This occurrence is...

Techniques for estimating flow characteristics of Wyoming streams
H. W. Lowham
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-112
This report presents relations for estimating peak flows and mean annual flow characteristics are: (1) The Channel-geometry method, whereby flow characteristics are related to channel dimensions; and (2) the basin-characteristics method, whereby flow characteristics are related to physiographic and climatic features of the drainage basin. Development of the channel-geometry method...

Potential for development of ground water at a test site near Truro, Massachusetts
J.H. Guswa, Clark J. Londquist
1976, Open-File Report 76-614
An aquifer test was carried out at a possible ground-water development site in Truro, Massachusetts. Average lateral hydraulic conductivity for material in the screened interval of the test well is 216 feet per day. Specific yield of the material at water-table depth is about 0.10. Anisotropy, or ratio of lateral...
Ground water favorability and surficial geology of the Portland area, Maine
Glenn C. Prescott
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 561
This hydrologic atlas describes the surficial geology and groundwater resources of about 240 square miles in Cumberland County, Maine. The most productive aquifers are outwash and ice-contact deposits. Their locations and the most favorable areas for obtaining large yields from them are indicated on the map. The largest reported yield...
Teton Dam flood of June 1976, Woodville quadrangle, Idaho
Howard F. Matthai, Herman A. Ray
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 576
The failure of the Teton Dam caused extreme flooding along the Teton River, Henrys Fork, and Snake River in southeastern Idaho on June 5-8, 1976. No flooding occurred downstream from American Falls Reservoir. The inundated areas and maximum water-surface elevations are shown in a series of 17 hydrologic atlases. The...

Historic water-level changes and pumpage from the principal aquifers of the Memphis area, Tennessee: 1886-1975
James H. Criner, William Scott Parks
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-67
The Memphis Sand ("500-foot" sand) supplies about 95 percent of the water used in the Memphis area for municipal and industrial purposes. In general, pumpage has increased at an irregular rate since the completion of the first well to this aquifer in 1886. These withdrawals are responsible for an almost...

Land and natural resource information and some potential environmental effects of surface mining of coal in the Gillette area, Wyoming
William Richard Keefer, R. F. Hadley
1976, Circular 743
Campbell County, along the east margin of the Powder River Basin in northeastern Wyoming, contains more coal than any other county in the United States. The principal deposit is the Wyodak-Anderson coal bed. The bed is 50-100 feet (15-30 meters) thick over large areas, lies less than 200 feet (60...
