Transport of agrichemicals to ground and surface water in a small central Indiana watershed Transport of agrichemicals to ground and surface water in a small central Indiana watershed

The occurrence, distribution, concentrations, and pathways of agrichemicals in water were investigated in the Sugar Creek watershed, a poorly drained agricultural watershed typical of many watersheds in the midwestern USA. Water samples from Sugar Creek, two tile drains, and 11 wells along a groundwater flowpath to Sugar Creek were collected between May 1992 and August 1996 and analyzed...

Trends in acetochlor concentrations in surface waters of the White River Basin, Indiana, 1994–96 Trends in acetochlor concentrations in surface waters of the White River Basin, Indiana, 1994–96

Corn herbicides are used extensively in the White River Basin and account for about 70 percent of the total agricultural pesticide use in the basin. Acetochlor, a corn herbicide registered for use in 1994, is expected to reduce the total amount of corn herbicides used because of its broad-spectrum weed control and low use rates. Acetochlor is considered to be a probable human carcinogen...

Characterization of fill deposits in the Calumet region of northwestern Indiana and northeastern Illinois Characterization of fill deposits in the Calumet region of northwestern Indiana and northeastern Illinois

In October 1993, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, began a study of the fill deposits in the Calumet region of northwestern Indiana and northeastern Illinois. Fill in this area is a mixture of steel-industry wastes, other industrial waste, municipal solid waste, dredging spoil, construction debris, ash, cinders, natural materials...

Modified level II streambed-scour analysis for structure I-465-131-5256 crossing Williams Creek in Hamilton County, Indiana Modified level II streambed-scour analysis for structure I-465-131-5256 crossing Williams Creek in Hamilton County, Indiana

Level II scour evaluations follow a process in which hydrologic, hydraulic, and sediment transport data are evaluated to calculate the depth of scour that may result when a given discharge is routed through a bridge opening. The results of the modified Level II analysis for structure 1-465-131-5256 on Interstate 465 crossing Williams Creek in Hamilton County, Indiana, are presented. The...
