Model analysis of effects on water levels at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore caused by construction dewatering Model analysis of effects on water levels at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore caused by construction dewatering

Two computer models were developed to investigate possible hydrologic effects within the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore caused by planned dewatering at the adjacent Bailly Nuclear Generator construction site. The dewatering, which is scheduled to last for about 18 months, would cause ground-water levels to be drawn down 20 to 30 feet (6 to 9 metres) to an elevation of 4 ft (1.2 m)...

Statistical summaries of Indiana streamflow data Statistical summaries of Indiana streamflow data

Complete statistical analyses are presented in tabular form for all gaging stations in Indiana, regardless of length of record. Each station analysis includes lowest and highest mean daily discharges, flow duration, statistics on normal monthly means, statistics on normal annual means, statistics on log monthly means, statistics on log annual means, and annual peak discharges.

Digital-model analysis to predict water levels in a well field near Columbus, Indiana Digital-model analysis to predict water levels in a well field near Columbus, Indiana

Columbus, Indiana, obtains its water supply from six municipally owned wells southwest of the city. The wells are screened in an outwash sand and gravel aquifer that was deposited by glacial melt water in a preglacial bedrock valley. The well field is midway between the East Fork White River and the western edge of the valley. A digital model was used to determine the effects of two...

Availability of ground water near Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana Availability of ground water near Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana

A study of the hydraulic characteristics of the unconsolidated glacial deposits near the city of Carmel in central Indiana shows that 21.3 million gallons per day (933 litres per second) of additional water could be withdrawn from the aquifer for an indefinite period of time . This pumpage is approximately 5 million gallons per day (219 litres per second) above the projected water needs...

A technique for estimating the time of travel of water in Indiana streams A technique for estimating the time of travel of water in Indiana streams

Estimates of the traveltime of waterborne particles in streams is important for pollution studies and in the event of spills of contaminants. This report provides data for the 16 Indiana streams on which time-of-travel information has been obtained and a means for estimating the velocity of any naturally flowing stream in Indiana with a drainage area of 80 square miles (210 square...

Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources – Upper Mississippi region Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources – Upper Mississippi region

The Upper Mississippi Region in general is rich in water-surface water is plentiful, and ground water is a large, important, and manageable resource. Total potable water in storage in the outwash and alluvial aquifers of the Mississippi River valley and the subbasins is about 45,000 billion gallons. This is about 10 percent of the water in storage in Lake Ontario. Water in storage in...

Digital model simulation of the glacial-outwash aquifer at Dayton, Ohio Digital model simulation of the glacial-outwash aquifer at Dayton, Ohio

Dayton, Ohio and its environs obtain most of their water from wells which penetrate highly productive glacial-outwash deposits underlying the Great Miami River and its tributaries and receive recharge by induced streambed leakage. Combined municipal and industrial use of ground water in the 90-square-mile area has increased from about 180 cubic feet per second in 1960 to nearly 250 cubic...

An introduction to the processes, problems, and management of urban lakes An introduction to the processes, problems, and management of urban lakes

Lakes are bodies of water formed in depressions on the earth's surface, and as such, act as depositories for a variety of chemical and biological materials. The study of lakes has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. Lakes are a valuable resource, and their multiple uses have made them susceptible to water-quality problems such as algal blooms, sediment deposition and fish...

Availability of ground water in Marion County, Indiana Availability of ground water in Marion County, Indiana

County constitute the most extensive aquifers in the county. Four areally distinct sand and gravel aquifers were mapped in the drift during the course of this study. The aquifer of greatest economic importance consists of sand and gravel deposits of glacial-outwash origin which coincide with the courses of the White River and Fall Creek. Ground water in this aquifer is generally...

A water-quality assessment of the Rock Creek (Cass) watershed, Cass and Carroll counties, Indiana A water-quality assessment of the Rock Creek (Cass) watershed, Cass and Carroll counties, Indiana

A water-quality assessment of the Rock Creek (Cass) watershed was made June 12 and 13, 1974. Nutrients were resampled November 7, 1974. Surface waters within the watershed were calcium bicarbonate types with very similar concentrations of major dissolved constituents. Samples collected June 13 contained between 7.4 and 14 milligrams per litre dissolved nitrate (as N), between 0.05 and 1...
