Diuron, fenuron, monuron, neburon, and TCA mixtures as aquatic herbicides in fish habitats Diuron, fenuron, monuron, neburon, and TCA mixtures as aquatic herbicides in fish habitats
The substituted urea herbicides were rated according to their effectiveness as aquatic herbicides in this order: diuron [3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea], monuron [3-(p-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea], neburon [1-butyl-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methlyurea] and TCA(trichloroacetic acid) mixtures with them. They showed greatest potential in controlling certain aquatic plants in pre...

Ground and surface water in the Mesabi and Vermilion Iron Range area, northeastern Minnesota Ground and surface water in the Mesabi and Vermilion Iron Range area, northeastern Minnesota
Within the Mesabi-Vermilion Iron Range area, water of good quality is available from the Biwabik Iron-Formation, from stratified drift, and from lakes and streams. About 700 bgy (billion gallons a year) leaves the area as surface water, of which about one-third comes from ground water. Leached, oxidized, and fractured parts of the Biwabik Iron-Formation yield as much as 1,000 gpm...

Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the central Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the central Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities on the central Mesabi Iron Range. Ground water presents the greatest potential yield, and most of the productive aquifers are in the Biwabik Iron-Formation and the stratified glacial drift. /k single body of ice-contact stratified drift underlies parts of all but one of the five municipality areas mapped. Surface-water...

Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the west-central Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the west-central Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities or the west-central Mesabi Iron Range. The largest sources are the ground-water aquifers in the Biwabik Iron-Formation and the stratified glacial drift. Areas of stratified drift that probably have good water potential have been outlined. Surface-water supplies are negligible in the eastern part of this area but increase...

Hydrology of the Little Plover River basin, Portage County, Wisconsin, and the effects of water resource development Hydrology of the Little Plover River basin, Portage County, Wisconsin, and the effects of water resource development
The Little Plover River basin is in the sand-plain area of central Wisconsin. The basin and the surrounding sand-plain area provide a good fish and wildlife habitat and is a popular locale for sport fishing. Good yields may be obtained in the area from irrigated crops, and the irrigated acreage has been increasing rapidly in recent years. Sportsmen and conservationists are concerned...

Summary of ground-water conditions in Michigan in 1964 Summary of ground-water conditions in Michigan in 1964
The purpose of this report is to make available records of groundwater level changes in the principal aquifers of the State during 1964 and compile other related data, such as ground-water pumpage, data on municipal, public and industrial water supply facilities, and the effects of precipitation on ground-water levels. Records of water level changes in areas of heavy pumpage and in areas...
