Ground water in the Yelm area, Thurston and Pierce counties, Washington
Maurice John Mundorff, James M. Weigle, Glen D. Holmberg
1955, Circular 356
This report presents the results of an investigation of the ground-water resources of the Yelm area, Pierce and Thurston Counties, Wash. It was made at the request of the Division of Water Resources, Washington State Department of Conservation and Development, for the purpose of determining the availability of ground water...
Ground-water and drainage problems in the Whitney terrace area, Boise, Idaho
S. W. West
1955, Open-File Report 55-192
Ground-water levels in the Whitney terrace area, after many years of rise owing to downward percolation of water from irrigated land, became nearly stabilized by 1935.  Strong seasonal water-level fluctuations of 8 to 10 feet, however, are common in the Boise Valley.  In recent years, the Whitney terrace has been...
Floods in North Carolina, frequency and magnitude
H. C. Riggs
1955, Open-File Report 55-151
Recorded annual flood stages and discharges at 144 gaging stations are listed.  Also included are maximum known flood stages and discharges, both at gaging stations and at miscellaneous sites.  Using the annual flood discharge at gaging stations a regional analysis of flood magnitudes and frequencies in the state was made....
Hydraulics of wells
Thad G. McLaughlin
1955, Open-File Report 55-104
Although the subject of this lecture is supposed to be concerned primarily with the hydraulics of wells, Professor Weers has asked that I also discuss the effects tat geological formations have on the quantity and quality of water available to wells. I will discuss the geology of Colorado in relation...
Extending flood-frequency graphs by comparison with rainfall
W. B. Langbein
1955, Open-File Report 55-90
Flood discharge is the consequence of many contributing hydrologic events which may be presumed to occur fortuitously and independently, such that the probability of a given flood is the product of the probability of each independent contributing event.  Of the many factors that lead to a flood, the two most...
Preliminary report on the potential waterpower of Grant, Ptarmigan, Cooper and Crescent lakes on the Kenai Peninsula, near Seward, Alaska
Arthur Johnson
1955, Open-File Report 55-74
Grant, Ptarmigan, Cooper, and Crescent Lakes, located in the Kenai Mountains in the upper portion of the Kenai River Basin, approximately 25 miles to the north of Seward, present favorable opportunities for the development of waterpower. Grant and Ptarmigan Lakes can be made readily accessible by roads from the Seward-Anchorage...
Geology of two areas of pegmatite deposits in southeastern Alaska
C.L. Sainsbury
1955, Open-File Report 55-159
A pegmatite deposit about 600 feet in diameter crops on a high bluff less than one-half mile east of a small unnamed cove between Redfish and Byron Bays, on the west coast of Baranof Island, southeastern Alaska.The deposit which comprises several pegmatite bodies consists of quartz, albite-oligoclase, microcline and mica,...
Ore deposits on northwestern Chichagof Island, Alaska
Darwin L. Rossman
1955, Open-File Report 55-154
The area mapped includes most of northwestern Chichagof Island. The work, started in 1946, is a continuation of the geologic mapping done in the adjoining Chichagof mining district by Reed and Coats. The gold-bearing zone recognized by these writers continues through the area mapped by the writer to the northern...
The Garm-Lamoreaux mine, Lemhi County, Idaho
Frank Clarkson Armstrong, Paul L. Weis
1955, Open-File Report 55-2
The Garm-Lamoreaux property, Lemhi County, Idaho is known to have uranite and zippsite on two of its dumps. The property has been explored by five adits, two of which are now caved, and one of which is partly caved. The country rock is schistose micaceous quartzite and argillaceous quartzite of...
Geology and zinc-lead deposits in the Couler Valley area, Dubuque County, Iowa
C. Erwin Brown, L.G. Collins, Percy Crosby
1955, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 42
Geologic investigations were begun in the Iowa portion of the Wisconsin-Illinois-Iowa zinc-lead district to appraise its potentialities: (1) for zinc ore in strata that elsewhere in the mining district contain large zinc ore bodies and (2) for lead and zinc deposits of the type that were mined extensively in Dubuque...
