Sediment data have been collected regularly in Georgia by the U.S. Geological Survey since 1957. The data were collected in cooperation with a number of State and Federal agencies. The frequency of data collection varied and several sampling methodologies were used. This report presents suspended-sediment-concentration data for 179 sites, suspended-sediment particle-size for 16 sites, and bed-mate

This report presents an analysis of data uses and funding for the stream-gaging program operated by the U.S. Geological Survey in Texas. Presently (1984), 391 continuous surface water stations are operated in Texas. Selected hydrologic data, data uses, and funding sources are presented for each of the 391 stations. This study is a part of a larger project to determine the cost-effectiveness of the

This report contains well data collected from 1979 to 1983 in a part of the Great Basin in western Utah (fig. 1). The area is characterized by a series of generally north-trending mountain ranges separated by alluviumfilled basins that are partially filled with sedimentary deposits eroded from the adjacent mountains and lacustrine sediments deposited by Lake Bonneville. Most of the intermountain b

Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. Studies are now in progress in Austin, and Houston. Studies have been completed in the Dallas, Fort Worth, and San Antonio areas. The Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Texas Department of Water Reources, began hydrologic studies in the Austin urban area in 1954. In cooperation with the

The Texas Water Plan (Texas Water Development Board, 1968) proposed development and utilization of water resources in Texas and included a provision for the use and preservation of water in the estuaries of the State. Management of estuarine waters requires knowledge of the hydrodynamics and of the continuing changes in the chemical and physical characteristics of water in the estuaries. In Septem

WHY COLLECT WATER-USE INFORMATION? Water used in Georgia increased from 5,560 to 6,765 million gallons per day (22 percent) between 1970 and 1980. In 1970 the population of Georgia was about 4,600,000. By 1980 it had rcached an estimated 5,500,000, a 20-percent increase. The amount of irrigated land in the State incrcased from 79,600 acres to nearly one million acres during the decade, which re

Governmental units that have been identified as having flood hazard areas but do not have detailed base flood information are required to use the ' best available data ' to regulate new development or expansion of existing development in flood prone areas. Information for flood plain management has been identified for 31 governmental units in North Dakota and includes the determination of what dat

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. Reported chem

The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, Office of Public Works, used geologic maps, soils maps, precipitation data, and low-flow data to define four hydrographic regions in Louisiana having distinct low-flow characteristics. Equations were derived, using regression analyses, to estimate the 7Q2, 7Q10, and 7Q20 flow rates for basic
