Streamgage at the Elizabeth Mine Site in Stratford, Vermont
Elizabeth Mine was added to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Superfund Program’s National Priority List in 2001. Since then, EPA and USGS have cooperated to investigate the nature and extent of contamination from weathering of waste rock rich in metals and sulfides.

40 Years Presenting Cape Cod Hydrology
USGS has studied the hydrology of Cape Cod and the Islands and demonstrated our science to the public for more than four decades. Many visitor groups from government agencies, universities, nonprofit organizations, and local communities have learned about our groundwater and surface water research in southeastern Massachusetts.

Hot Stream, Cold Stream – Measuring the impact of Groundwater on Stream Temperature
Groundwater that drains to surface water through seeps and springs is generally referred to as “discharge.” Groundwater discharge is a primary component of stream base flow, or streamflow that occurs between storms, periods of snowmelt runoff, and periods of quick soil drainage.
