1980, Open-File Report 80-241
The growing need for the United States to find and develop new energy resources has led to interest in the petroleum potential of frontier areas of the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) seaward of the eastern seaboard state boundaries. These submerged lands are under federal jurisdiction. The authority to lease...

Protecting the water resources of the Nation is a major emphasis of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act, PL 95-87. Permanent regulations established for this Act by the Office of Surface Mining (OSM) require the issuance of a permit before mining begins. An application for a mining permit must...
Hydrologic monitoring program in Eldridge-Wilde and East Lake Road well-field areas, Pinellas and Hillsborough counties, Florida, 1977 water year
Boyd F. Joyner, James M. Gerhart
1980, Open-File Report 80-345
The observation-well network in the vicinity of the two well fields is described in detail. Data obtained from the network from October 1976 through September 1977, as well as rainfall and pumpage records, are presented and discussed. Below-normal rainfall caused the water table and potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer...

Long-term highwall stability in the northwestern Powder River basin, Wyoming and Montana
William K. Smith
1980, Open-File Report 80-1229
Time-dependent behavior of natural and and excavated slopes in sedimentary rocks is a subject that is poorly understood at present but that is now an important consideration in the design, operation, and reclamation of energy-extraction facilities, in part because of the environmental considerations mandated by the Surface Mining Control and...
Preliminary bathymetry of Aialik Bay and Neoglacial changes of Aialik and Pederson glaciers, Alaska
Austin Post
1980, Open-File Report 80-423
Preliminary bathymetry (at 1:20,000 scale) and scientific studies of Aialik Bay, Alaska, by the Research Vessel Growler in 1978 disclose that the head of the bay consists of a deep basin enclosed by a terminal-moraine shoal. A much smaller basin, into which Aialik Glacier discharges icebergs, is located west of...
Preliminary bathymetry of Blackstone Bay and Neoglacial changes of Blackstone Glaciers, Alaska
Austin Post
1980, Open-File Report 80-418
Preliminary bathymetry (at 1:20,000 scale) and scientific studies of Blackstone Bay Alaska, by the Research Vessel Growler in 1978 disclose that the head of the bay consists of two basins separated by Willard Island and a submarine ridge. Both basins are closed on the north by terminal-moraine bars where Blackstone...

Evaluation of water resources in the Reedsport area, Oregon
Joseph F. Rinella, F. J. Frank, A.R. Leonard
1980, Open-File Report 80-444
The water supply for the Reedsport area is obtained from Clear Lake, a 310-acre coastal lake that contains 16, 600 acre-feet of water at full-pool. The lake receives about 6,000 acre-feet of water annually from runoff and direct precipitation, and it loses about 600 acre-feet by evaporation. The 2,100 acre-feet...
