T.B. Dover
1957, Open-File Report 57-40
One of the first requisites for intelligent planning of the utilization and control of water and for the administration of laws relating to its use, is data on the quantity, quality, and mode of occurrence of water supplies.

The deep channel and alluvial deposits of the Ohio Valley in Kentucky
Eugene H. Walker
1957, Water Supply Paper 1411
The alluvial deposits of Pleistocene age in the Ohio Valley form a ground-water reservoir of large storage capacity and yield. In this region it is the only source of large supplies of water that are both cool and of good quality the year round. The reservoir is heavily drawn upon,...

It has no serious groundwater problem at present, but the county is important as a recharge area for the principal aquifers supplying water to Brown County and industrial Green Bay to the east. The county is covered by glacial drift and lake deposits of the...
A field method for the determination of calcium and magnesium in limestone and dolomite
Leonard Shapiro, Walter Wallace Brannock
1957, Open-File Report 57-99
The method is an adaptation of a procedure described by Betz and Noll1 in 1950. Calcium and magnesium are determined by visual titration using Versene (disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate) with Murexide (ammonium purpurate) as the indicator for calcium and Eriochrome Black T as the indicator for magnesium....

Drainage area data for Alabama streams
J.S. Stallings, L.B. Peirce
1957, Open-File Report 57-106
The drainage area of a river basin is an important parameter in many engineering equations used for hydrologic design. It is not a parameter, however, that always requires precise measurement. Factors in the hydrologic cycle such as rainfall, runoff, transpiration, and infiltration cannot be measured nearly as closely as drainage...
Surface water supply of eastern and central North Carolina
Edward B. Rice
1957, Open-File Report 57-96
None of the many factors that influence the economic growth of eastern and central North Carolina plays a more important role than water. Adequate water supply for municipal, rural domestic, industrial, and agricultural uses, is a basic need of any region....
