Salinity studies in East Glades Agricultural Area, southeastern Dade County, Florida

The proposed water-quality network for the Sabine River Basin of Texas and Louisiana consists of nine monitoring stations, a central control station, a slave-central station, and a leased-line telecommunications system. This monitoring network would provide continuous transmission of water-quality data to the office of the water manager. Level I operations at a proposed site would...

Flood peaks with magnitudes from 2 to 3 times the SO-year flood occurred on streams in the Little Maquoketa River basin for the flood of August 2, 1972. Up to nine inches of rain fell in the headwater of the Middle Fork tributary with six to seven inches occurring over most of the Little Maquoketa River basin. The flood peak elevation at the gaging station near Durango exceeded the 1925...

Deep-well injection has been selected by the Dade County Water and Sewer Authority as a means of disposing treated waste water in southeast Dade County. Preliminary plans call for the construction of a county-owned sanitary sewage treatment plant and several 3,000-foot deep injection wells at 1,000-foot intervals on Levee 31E. As a first stage, drilling of seven wells, capable of...

Because of increasing concern about the continuing decline of water levels in the Houston area, an electric analog model was used to determine the effects on the potentiometric surfaces resulting from recharging water through wells along the Houston Ship Channel into the two major aquifers, the Chicot and Evangeline. The model conditions simulated for this study are too complex to be...

This report contains flood information for the Rock River basin in Iowa, it updates and supersedes the 1967 report "Floods in Rock River basin, Iowa" by P. J. Carpenter. The occurrence of an outstanding flood in 1969 and the acquisition of additional flood data in the basin prompted the preparation of this report. The 1969 flood, the greatest flood on the Rock River in at least 45 years...

Flood information is reported for 207 miles of the main stem, 23 miles on the West Branch, and 23 miles on the East Branch, of the Iowa River. The information will be of use to those concerned with the design of bridges and other structures and the conduct of various operations on the flood plains of the streams. Included in the report are flood-peak records, gaging-station records, and...

Water resources data for the 1972 water year for Georgia include records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and records of water-quality data on the chemical and physical characteristics of surface-water as well as records for a few pertinent gaging and water-quality stations in bordering States. The records were collected and computed by the...
