This report summarizes existing knowledge on the geohydrology of the Soquel-Aptos area, near, and including the eastern part, of Santa Cruz, California, and outlines work necessary for making a complete appraisal of the water resources of the area.The area is underlain mostly by marine and continental sedimentary deposits of Tertiary and Quaternary age. A small section in the northeastern part of

Water supplies for Pinnacles National Monument are obtained from a collection gallery in alluvium and from a flowing well which obtains water from fractured breccia and tuff near a fault.Rocks other than alluvium, in all but the northern fourth of the monument, are dense igneous or metamorphic types that, unless fractured, have little potential for development of ground water. However, in some are

This report is the fourth in a series of annual reports that describe ground-water conditions in Utah. Reports in this series are prepared cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Division of Water Resources and are designed to provide data to enable interested parties such as legislators, administrators, and planners to keep abreast of changing ground-water conditions.This report,

An extensive aquifer test in southern Utah Valley, Utah County, Utah, was made during January-March 1967 by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer. The purpose of the test was to obtain data about the hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer in the valley and to determine whether pumping large-diameter wells decreased artesian pressures and resulting flow from the n

This report presents data collected during the first part of an investigation that was started in 1963 by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey. The investigation has the purpose of providing information about the chemical quality of water in western Utah that will help interested parties to evaluate the suitability of the water for various use

This report gives the results of an investigation of the ground-water resources of northern Juab Valley, Utah, that was carried out between June 1964 and July 1966, by the U. S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer. The study was made in order to provide water users, administrators, and other interested parties with information on the character and extent of the water-bear

This study of the ground-water conditions in Cedar Valley, Utah, was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer during the period July 1965-July 1966. The purposes of the study were to estimate the recharge to and the yield of the ground-water reservoir and to determine the direction of ground-water movement through Cedar Valley.

The Two Rivers watershed includes two physiographic areas a lake plain and a till plain – within its 1,232 square miles. It lies in parts of Kittson and Roseau counties and includes the drainage basins of the Two Rivers and Joe River. The flat lake plain which extends 15 to 20 miles east of the Red River of the North is extensively cultivated for small grains and sugar beets. The gently undulating

This atlas presents data pertaining to the regimen of flooding along White Rock Creek and its tributaries, Spanky Branch, Floyd Branch, and Cottonwood Creek at Dallas, Texas. The map and flood data were prepared to aid those concerned with, and responsible for, the safe and yet extensive use of the floodplain along White Rock Creek and its tributaries. The flood map is shown in two parts—A, north

The drainage area of the Roseau River consists of 2,060 square miles above its confluence with the Red River of the North. About 1,150 square miles lie in the United States and 910 square miles in Canada. This report deals only with that portion within the United States, except for a detailed analysis of low flow characteristics of tributary streams. Most of the area is within Roseau County, but s
