National Water-Quality Assessment program: The Trinity River Basin
In 1991, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) began to implement a full-scale National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) program. The long-term goals of the NAWQA program are to describe the status and trends in the quality of a large, representative part of the Nation's surface- and ground-water resources and to provide a sound, scientific understanding of the primary natural and human factors affect

Work plan for regional reconnaissance for selected herbicides and nitrate in ground water of the mid-continent United States, 1991
An approach was developed to obtain a consistent, regional distribution of herbicide and nitrate data from near-surface aquifers in the corn and soybean producing region of the mid-continent. Near-surface aquifers are defined as those with the top of aquifer material within 50 feet of land surface, regardless of whether the material is saturated or unsaturated. Three hundred wells will be selected

Streamflow entering and leaving Lake Bemidji, Beltrami County, Minnesota, July 1987 through September 1989
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, operated three streamflow-gaging stations from July 1987 through September 1989 to determine the volume of streamflow entering and leaving Lake Bemidji. Suspended- and bottom-sediment data were also collected at the gaging stations. Two gaging stations were located upstream and one was located downstream
