Ground-water quality data for the Atlantic Coastal Plain: New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina Ground-water quality data for the Atlantic Coastal Plain: New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina
This report is a compilation of chemical analyses of ground-water samples in the Atlantic Coastal Plain from North Carolina through New Jersey. It contains records of 3,616 chemical analyses of ground water selected from more than 15,000 analyses in WATSTORE. These analyses serve as the data base for interpreting the geochemistry of the northern Atlantic Coastal Plain aquifer system...

Hydrologic and geochemical data for the Big Brown lignite mine area, Freestone County, Texas Hydrologic and geochemical data for the Big Brown lignite mine area, Freestone County, Texas
Lignite mining in east and east-central Texas is increasing in response to increased energy needs throughout the State. Associated with the increase in mining activities is a greater need to know the effects of mining activities on the water quantity and quality of near-surface aquifers. The near-surface lignite beds mined at the Big Brown Lignite Mine are from the Calvert Bluff...

Water quality of North Carolina streams – Water-quality characteristics for selected sites on the Cape Fear River, North Carolina, 1955-80 – Variability, loads, and trends of selected constituents Water quality of North Carolina streams – Water-quality characteristics for selected sites on the Cape Fear River, North Carolina, 1955-80 – Variability, loads, and trends of selected constituents
Historical water-quality data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey from the Cape Fear River at Lock 1, near Kelly, North Carolina, show increasing concentrations of total-dissolved solids, specific conductance, sulfate, chloride, nitrite plus nitrate nitrogen, magnesium, sodium, and potassium during the past 25 years. Silica and pH show decreasing trends during the same 1957-80 period...

Ground-water flow in the Coastal Plain aquifers of South Carolina Ground-water flow in the Coastal Plain aquifers of South Carolina
The characteristics of the Coastal Plain aquifers of South Carolina are being studied as a part of the Regional Aquifer System Analysis program of the United States Geological Survey. Potentiometric maps were constructed for the Middendorf aquifer of Cretaceous age and for the Floridan aquifer system and its sand facies equivalent, Tertiary sand aquifer, prior to development. Also...

Potential impacts of discharging tertiary-treated wastewater into Port Royal Sound, South Carolina Potential impacts of discharging tertiary-treated wastewater into Port Royal Sound, South Carolina
An assessment of physical characteristics of Port Royal Sound was combined with the results of a dye tracer study and with data collected from a previous environmental study to describe the impact on the water quality from discharging tertiary treated wastewater into the sound. Calculated velocities for the time of maximum velocity in the tidal cycle ranged from 2.32 ft/sec near the...

Trend analysis of weekly acid rain data, 1978-83 Trend analysis of weekly acid rain data, 1978-83
There are 19 stations in the National Atmospheric Deposition Program which operated over the period 1978-83 and were subsequently incorporated into the National Trends Network in 1983. The precipitation chemistry data for these stations for this period were analyzed for trend, spatial correlation, seasonality, and relationship to precipitation volume. The intent of the analysis was to...

Ground-water data for Georgia, 1984 Ground-water data for Georgia, 1984
Continuous water-level records from 155 wells and more than 800 water-level measurements made in Georgia during 1984 provide the basic data for this report. Selected wells illustrate the effects that changes in recharge and pumping have had on the various ground-water resources in the State. Daily mean water levels are shown in hydrographs for 1984. Monthly means are shown for the 10...

Selected hydrologic data from a wastewater spray disposal site on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina Selected hydrologic data from a wastewater spray disposal site on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina
This study presents data collected during a study of the effects on the water table aquifer from wastewater application at rates of up to 5 inches per week on a wastewater spray disposal site on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The study was conducted from April 1982 through December 1983. The disposal site covers approximately 14 acres. Water level and water quality data from organic
