Fecal-indicator bacteria in surface waters of the Santee River Basin and coastal drainages, North and South Carolina, 1995-98 Fecal-indicator bacteria in surface waters of the Santee River Basin and coastal drainages, North and South Carolina, 1995-98
Introduction High levels of fecal-indicator bacteria in rivers and streams can indicate the possible presence of pathogenic (disease-causing) microorganisms. Cholera, typhoid fever, bacterial dysentery, infectious hepatitis, and cryptosporidiosis are some of the well known waterborne diseases that spread through water contaminated and fecal matter. Eye, ear, nose, and throat infections...

Pesticides in surface waters of the Santee River basin and coastal drainages, North and South Carolina Pesticides in surface waters of the Santee River basin and coastal drainages, North and South Carolina
Introduction This report summarizes the available pesticide data for surface waters in the Santee River Basin and coastal drainages (SANT) study area, as part of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) Program. Data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Storage and Retrieval database and data collected by the USGS in the SANT NAWQA study area...

Ground-water recharge to and storage in the regolith-fractured crystalline rock aquifer system, Guilford County, North Carolina Ground-water recharge to and storage in the regolith-fractured crystalline rock aquifer system, Guilford County, North Carolina
Quantitative information concerning recharge rates to aquifers and ground water in storage is needed to manage the development of ground- water resources. The amount of ground water available from the regolith-fractured crystalline rock aquifer system in Guilford County, North Carolina, is largely unknown. If historical patterns seen throughout the Piedmont continue into the future, the...

Water-resources data for the 1997 water year for Georgia consists of discharge records for 123 gaging stations; stage for 23 gaging stations; stage and contents for 18 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 202 continuing-record stations; and peak stage and discharge only for 77 crest-stage partial-record stations; and water levels of 24 observation wells. The data for the Gulf of...

Water quality in the Georgia-Florida coastal plain, Georgia and Florida, 1992-96 Water quality in the Georgia-Florida coastal plain, Georgia and Florida, 1992-96
This report is intended to summarize major findings that emerged between 1992 and 1995 from the water-quality assessment of the Georgia-Florida Coastal Plain Study Unit and to relate these findings to water-quality issues of regional and national concern. The information is primarily intended for those who are involved in water-resource management. Yet, the information contained here may...

Simulation of ground-water flow and stream-aquifer relations in the vicinity of the Savannah River Site, Georgia and South Carolina, predevelopment through 1992 Simulation of ground-water flow and stream-aquifer relations in the vicinity of the Savannah River Site, Georgia and South Carolina, predevelopment through 1992
Ground-water flow and stream-aquifer relations were simulated for seven aquifers in Coastal Plain sediments in the vicinity of the U.S. Department of Energy, Savannah River Site (SRS), in Georgia and South Carolina to evaluate the potential for ground water containing hazardous materials to migrate from the SRS into Georgia through aquifers underlying the Savannah River (trans-river flow...

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
Surface- and ground-water resources in the Savannah, Georgia, area were evaluated for potential water-supply development. Stream-discharge and water-quality data were analyzed for two major streams considered to be viable water-supply sources. A ground-water flow model was developed to be used in conjunction with other previously calibrated models to simulate the effects of additional...
