From introduction: The purpose of this report is to describe low-flow characteristics of streams in the lower Wisconsin River basin where streamflow data have been collected and to present equations for estimating low-flow characteristics and ungaged sites.

"This report summarizes published geotechnical properties of raw and retorted oil shales from the Green River Formation. Basic physical properties including gradation, specific gravity and Atterberg limits and engineering properties including compaction, permeability, settlement, soundness, and strength are summarized and discussed. Where appropriate, conclusions are drawn about the suitability of retorted oil shales as a geotechnical construction material. Appendix A discusses three retorting processes used to extract oil from oil shale" (abstract, para. 2-3).

From preface: "This report contains the results of investigations of the chemical and sedimentological characteristics of the James River Artificial Habitat Development Site and a reference marsh near Windmill Point, Virginia. Studies were conducted in the channel before dredging and during site construction as well as at specific time intervals after marsh development."

This report is Appendix A to the Buttermilk Sound marsh development summary report and presents the results of habitat development activities the marsh in Glynn County, Georgia. The activities were made between spring of 1975 and fall of 1977.

Appendix containing a survey of terrestrial ecology and preliminary botanical monitoring of Nott Island, Connecticut to accompany a report on habitat field investigations of the Nott Island Upland Habitat Development Site in Connecticut.

From Introduction: The purpose of this report is to provide geologic and mineral resource background information useful in evaluating the uranium potential of the Raleigh 1* X 20 sheet.

Information collected from the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) using the Information on Nuclear SITEs (INSITE) Information System. This document describes data for site location and description, population and population distribution, nearby facilities and institutions, nearby land usage, nearby water usage, transportation systems and pipelines, and historic, cultural, scientific, scenic and wildlife areas.

This conference covers various aspects of fossil-fuel power plants based on coal or coal-conversion products, as well as the process control equipment involved in the conversion or combustion processes.

From abstract: Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Plainview Quadrangle, Texas are reported. Field and laboratory data are presented for 969 groundwater samples and 571 stream sediment samples. Statistical and areal distributions of uranium and other possible uranium related variables are displayed. A generalized geologic map of the survey area is provided, and pertinent geologic factors which may be of significance in evaluating the potential for uranium mineralization are briefly discussed.

Data collected as part of the hydrogeological and stream sediment reconnaissance for the Sherman NTMS quadrangle including laboratory data on well water and stream sediments as well as field data.

The following report discusses the findings from the Red River Valley drilling project that began in early June, 1977 and completed in October.

Biweekly, comprehensive compilation of decisions, reports, public notices, and other documents of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission.

Quarterly newsletter of the Texas Department of Public Safety discussing a "list of dispositions of cases filed by the License and Weight Patrolmen of the Texas Department of Public safety during the current quarter." (p.1)

Appendix containing data on the recolonization of benthic macrofauna over a deep-water disposal site in the Duwamish River influenced portion of Elliott Bay. It accompanies a report on the chemical and physical effects of open-water disposal of dredged material from the Duwamish River into Elliot Bay as part of a study to determine the effects of disposal sites on organisms and the quality of surrounding water.

Newsletter of the Texas Department of Mental Health and Mental Retardation, discussing news and events and activities of the agency, as well as other related topics.

Report on survey of three North Carolina streams for width, depth, and substrate type at 50.4 meter intervals at low water. Monthly fish samples and rotenone samples also collected.

From summary: The procedure has been to search for areas in which nonpedogenic calcrete or gypcrete may have developed and where additional study or exploration might be justified.

Biweekly, comprehensive compilation of decisions, reports, public notices, and other documents of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission.

A report by the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) examining "current Federal policies and current medical practices to determine whether a reasonable amount of justification should be provided before costly new medical technologies and procedures are put into general use" (quoted from Foreword).

Appendix containing physical, chemical and biological studies of conditions at Miller Sands Island to accompany a report of the Miller Sands Marsh and Upland Habitat Development Site, Columbia River, Oregon.

The concept design for a small (less than 10 MWe) solar thermal electric generating plant was completed using projected 1985 technology. The systems requirements were defined and specified. The components, including an engineering prototype for one 15 kWe module of the generating plant, were conceptually designed. Significant features of the small solar thermal power plant were identified as the following: (1) 15-kWe Stirling-cycle engine/alternator with constant power output; (2) 10-meter point-focusing paraboloidal concentrator with cantilevered cellular glass reflecting panels; (3) primary heat pipe with 800/sup 0/C output solar cavity receiver; (4) secondary heat pipe with molten salt thermal energy storage unit; (5) electric energy transport system; and (6) advanced battery energy storage capability. The present emphasis for achieving cost reduction goals centers on improving conversion efficiency and reducing the cost of key components.
