Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia

Long-term pumping from the Upper Floridan aquifer in the Savannah, Georgia, area has lowered ground-water levels, resulting in increased salinity of ground water by seawater encroachment at Hilton Head Island, S.C., and by saltwater intrusion at Brunswick, Ga. Increased pumpage could cause further salinization of the ground-water resources. The Savannah and Ogeechee Rivers can be...

Selected water-quality and biological characteristics of streams in some forested basins of North Carolina, 1985-88 Selected water-quality and biological characteristics of streams in some forested basins of North Carolina, 1985-88

Selected physical, chemical and biological components of streams draining undeveloped, forested basins in North Carolina were characterized on the basis of samples collected at nine sites on streams in basins that ranged in size from 0.67 to 11.2 sq mi. Water analysis included specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, water temperature, suspended sediment, pH, major dissolved constituents...

The storm and flood of September 15, 1989, in Fayetteville, North Carolina The storm and flood of September 15, 1989, in Fayetteville, North Carolina

The storm of September 15, 1989, in and around the city of Fayetteville, North Carolina, produced the most extensive flooding of Fayetteville since 1945. The flood inundated 925 acres in the city along Cross Creek and Blounts Creek and their tributaries, flooded 338 buildings, caused damages in excess of $10 million and claimed the lives of 2 small children. Twenty-two roads and five...

Effects of land-management practices on sediment yields in northeastern Guilford County, North Carolina Effects of land-management practices on sediment yields in northeastern Guilford County, North Carolina

Streamflow, precipitation, and suspended-sediment data were collected from two small agricultural basins in the Piedmont province of North Carolina. The data were used to determine the effects of land-management practices on sediment yield. One basin of 7.4 acres represents best land-management practices with strip cropping, crop rotation, contour farming, and grassed waterways. The...
