Geology and ground-water resources of the Bristol-Plainville-Southington area, Connecticut Geology and ground-water resources of the Bristol-Plainville-Southington area, Connecticut
The Bristol-Plainville-Southington area straddles the boundary between the New England Upland and the Connecticut Valley Lowland sections of the New England physiographic province. The western parts of Bristol are Southington lie in the New England Upland section, an area of rugged topography underlain by metamorphic rocks of Palezoic age. The eastern part of the area, to the east of a...

Statement on ground water in Connecticut Statement on ground water in Connecticut
Connecticut has a supply of ground water, most of it of good quality, which is largely undeveloped, and much of which would lend itself to industrial and other uses. Ground water is available in small quantities in nearly all parts of the State, and in moderate to large quantities in many areas, chiefly along the major stream. However, specific and detailed information on the ground...

Possibilities of obtaining an additional water supply near Hingham, Massachusetts Possibilities of obtaining an additional water supply near Hingham, Massachusetts
In February 1942 the War Production Board requested the U.S. Geological Survey to furnish information on the possibilities of obtaining additional water supply near the shore at Hingham, Mass. It was estimated that 300,000 to 500,000 gallons a day was needed. On February 25 and 26, 1942, a brief field study of the ground-water conditions was made in an area about 2 miles wide along the...
