Environmental survey of the B-3 and Ford's Farm ranges.

Description: The Army has been firing depleted-uranium (DU) projectiles into targets on the Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. An environmental survey was conducted of two areas known as the B-3 range and the Ford's Farm range to determine the location of DU in their environments. The survey included ground survey measurements and some environmental sampling. Several special studies were also conducted, including analyses of the isotopic composition of uranium in a limited number of samples and a dissolutio… more

Assessing impacts of oil-shale development on the Piceance Basin mule deer herd

Description: Development of energy resources on big game ranges generally negatively impacts these important wildlife resources. Although habitat disturbance is generally important, this impact is overshadowed by the negative impacts due to an increasing human population in the area. Increased human activities particularly stress animals during winter periods when inadequate nutrition levels may have already severely impacted the population. Increased road traffic and poaching causes additional deaths, whic… more

CHNTRN: a CHaNnel TRaNsport model for simulating sediment and chemical distribution in a stream/river network

Description: This report presents the development of a CHaNnel TRaNsport model for simulating sediment and chemical distribution in a stream/river network. A particular feature of the model is its capability to deal with the network system that may consist of any number of joined and branched streams/rivers of comparable size. The model employs a numerical method - an integrated compartment method (ICM) - which greatly facilitates the setup of the matrix equation for the discrete field approximating the cor… more

Water quality in the vicinity of Fenton Hill. Progress report 1981 and 1982

Description: As part of a continuing program of environmental studies, water quality data have been collected from established surface and ground water stations and from ponds and pond discharges at Fenton Hill Site located in the Jemez Mountains. Most of these stations were established in 1973, and water quality data have been collected since that time. There have been slight variations in the chemical quality of water from the surface and ground water locations; however, these variations are within normal… more

Small-scale hydroelectric power in Watauga County, North Carolina

Description: We have completed both the installation of the demonstration project and the assessment of the stream flows in Watauga County, North Carolina. The 17 kW, high head (178'), project on Laurel Creek in Watauga County has produced about 60,000 kWh over its first nine months of operation despite some electrical and other problems. It is currently producing 16 to 17 kW on a steady basis and is functioning as a popular site for visits by people who plan to install their own similar plants in area… more

Unsteady flow model of Priest Rapids Dam releases at Hanford Reach, Columbia River, Washington

Description: A model was developed to simulate water levels at three locations on the Columbia River between Priest Rapids Dam River Mile 396.1 (River Kilometer 639.0) and River Mile 361.50 (River Kilometer 581.7). The model was calibrated and verified over a range of flows. The results of calibration and verification indicate that the model, with reasonable accuracy, simulates stages to within +-0.08 m (+- 0.25 ft) and surface wave timing to within +-20 min. The model can be used by researchers, river syst… more

Impacts of Water Level Fluctuations on Kokanee Reproduction in Flathead Lake; Effects of Operation of Kerr and Hungry Horse Dam on Reproductive Success, 1983 Annual Report.

Description: Koktneesalmon (Oncorhvnchusnerka), the land-locked form of sockeye salmon, were originally introduced to Flathead Lake in 1916. My 1933, kokanee had become established in the lake and provided a popular summer trolling fishery as well as a fall snagging fishery in shoreline areas. Presently, Flathead Lake supports the second highest fishing pressure of any lake or reservoir in Montana (Montana Department of Fish and Game 1976). During 1981-82, the lake provided 168,792 man-days of fishing press… more

Empirical characterization of oil-shale cratering experiments. [RDX, ANFO, PETN, TNT]

Description: Numerous small- and intermediate-size cratering experiments have been conducted in Piceance Creek Basin oil shale at the Colony and Anvil Points oil shale mines near Rifle, Colorado. The purpose of these experiments was to evaluate scaling as a tool to infer the behavior of large-scale tests from small-scale experiments, to calibrate the hydrodynamic computer codes used to model explosive fragmentation of oil shale, and to investigate the influence of bedding plane orientation, natural joints, … more

The 1983 Temperature Gradient and Heat Flow Drilling Project for the State of Washington

Description: During the Summer of 1983, the Washington Division of Geology and Earth Resources carried out a three-hole drilling program to collect temperature gradient and heat flow information near potential geothermal resource target areas. The project was part of the state-coupled US Department of Energy Geothermal Program. Richardson Well Drilling of Tacoma, Washington was subcontracted through the State to perform the work. The general locations of the project areas are shown in figure 1. The first ho… more

Magnitude and Frequency of Floods in Eastern Oregon

Description: From purpose and scope: This report describes methods for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods at ungaged sites on streams with unregulated flow in eastern Oregon. The purpose is to provide a method to estimate flood magnitude and frequency and to present the supporting data. The report is based on data from nearly all unregulated streams (or data from regulated streams prior to their regulation) where gaging stations have been operated.

Time of Travel of Selected Arkansas Streams

Description: From introduction: The purpose of this report is (1) to present the results of time-of-travel and dispersion measurements made on selected streams in Arkansas from 1971 to 1981, and (2) to present a graphical method for quickly predicting traveltime, peak concentration, and duration of an accidentally spilled contaminant for those streams where enough data are available.

Water Resources of the Santa Fe River Basin, Florida

Description: From purpose and scope: The purpose of this report is to present an analysis of the stream-aquifer system of the Santa Fe River basin, including the quantity and quality of water available from each source and their interrelation. Much information is available in previously published reports, but the basin has not been previously evaluated as a hydrologic unit.

Reconnaissance of Benthic Invertebrates from Tributary Streams of the Yampa and North Platte River Basins, Northwestern Colorado

Description: From purpose and scope: The study was designed to describe and quantify the benthic invertebrate communities in selected streams in coal mining areas. A secondary purpose was to compare the results with other data collected prior to this study and to assess possible changes in water quality reflected in the composition of the benthic invertebrate community.
