Land-surface subsidence in the Houston-Galveston region, Texas
R.K. Gabrysch, C.W. Bonnet
1974, Open-File Report 74-123
The pumping of large amounts of ground water in the Houston-Galveston region, Texas, has resulted in water-level declines of as much as 200 feet (61 metres) in wells completed in the Chicot aquifer and as much as 325 feet (99 metres) in wells completed in the Evangeline aquifer during 1943-73....
Review of waterpower classifications and withdrawals, Pit River basin, California
Sterling R. Osborne
1974, Open-File Report 74-64
The purpose of this report is to evaluate the existing waterpower classifications of the Geological Survey in the Pit River basin relative to the most recent water resources information and planning. A detailed description of Geological Survey classifications is given on pages 40 and 41. In a following section each...
Flood of October 1973 in Enid and vicinity, north-central Oklahoma
Roy H. Bingham, DeRoy L. Bergman, Wilbert O. Thomas Jr.
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-27
Heavy and intense rainfall of October 10 and 11, 1973, caused wide-spread flooding along many streams in north-central Oklahoma.  This report shows the distribution and amounts of rainfall, and the magnitude and frequency of flood discharges at several sites in the area (sheet 1) and the extent of flooding in...
Limnological study of Lake Shastina, Siskiyou County, California
Alex E. Dong, Kenneth W. Beatty, Robert C. Averett
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-19
Lake Shastina provides water for irrigation in Shasta Valley, as well as recreation. Presently, its shoreline is being developed for summer homes. Surface water constituted more than 90 percent of the approximately 50,000 acre-foot (62-cubic hectometre) inflow to Lake Shastina in the 1972 water year. Controlled outflow is via the...
Special techniques for determining chemical properties of geothermal water
T. S. Presser, Ivan Barnes
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-22
A reliable determination of the chemical composition of geothermal fluids may require special sampling and preservation techniques. A sample collected without pretreatment is usually adequate for the analysis of sodium, potassium, and chloride. Other constituents may require further treatment or even analysis in the field, depending on the data requirements....
Water supply at Painted Canyon Overlook, Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit), southwestern North Dakota
M.G. Croft
1974, Open-File Report 74-136
A 1,930-foot (588-metre) water-supply well was constructed at the Painted Canyon Overlook, Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit), southwestern North Dakota. Aquifers underlying the site are in rocks of Late Cretaceous and Tertiary age. These rocks have an aggreqate thickness of about 2,000 feet (610 metres). The well screen...
Hydrologic data of the Hoosic River basin, Massachusetts
Bruce P. Hansen, Frederick B. Gay, L.G. Toler
1974, Open-File Report 74-368
The Hoosic River has its headwaters in northwestern Massachusetts and southern Vermont and flows northwestward through southern Vermont into New York, where it is tributary to the Hudson River. Upstream from the Massachusetts State line the Hoosic River drains a total of 205 mi2 (531 km2) of which 164 mi2...
Seismic hazards and land-use planning
Donald R. Nichols, Jane M. Buchanan-Banks
1974, Circular 690
Basic earth-science data are necessary for a realistic assessment of seismic hazards and as a basis for limiting corrective land-use controls only to those areas of greatest hazard. For example, the location, character, and amount of likely displacement and activity of surface faulting can be predicted if detailed geologic maps...
