From introduction: Salt occurs at depths less than 500 feet in six salt domes in Texas and Louisiana. Underground mining operations are being carried out in each of these domes. The following notes have been prepared in an effort to furnish data regarding chemical composition and structure of the rock salt in the shallow deposits.

The following report is the first volume documenting the radiometric and magnetic data taken during the month of October, 1979, by EG&G geoMetrics primarily in the state of Texas in the quadrangles: Tyler, Texarkana, and Waco. This volume contains the survey description, specifications, data processing methods, interpretation methods, interpretation methods, and regional geologic review.

This report is one part of the second volume containing data on quadrangles of Texas and Nebraska. This volume contains the detailed geologic summary, interpretation report, standard deviation maps, pseudo-contour maps, interpretation map, flight line and geologic base map, individual corrected profiles, computer map unit histograms and statistical tables for the Tyler quadrangle.

This report is one part of the second volume containing data on quadrangles of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana. This volume contains the detailed geologic summary, interpretation report, standard deviation maps, pseudo-contour maps, interpretation map, flight line and geologic base map, individual corrected profiles, computer map unit histograms and statistical tables for the Texarkana quadrangle.

Final report analyzing aerial gamma ray and magnetic data in the Baton Rouge quadrangle, including a detailed geologic summary, interpretation report, reduced scale copies of all maps and profiles, histograms, and statistical tables for the quadrangle.

Final report analyzing aerial gamma ray and magnetic data in the Mobile quadrangle, including a detailed geologic summary, interpretation report, reduced scale copies of all maps and profiles, histograms, and statistical tables for the quadrangle.

Final report analyzing aerial gamma ray and magnetic data in the New Orleans and Breton Sound quadrangles, including a detailed geologic summary, interpretation report, reduced scale copies of all maps and profiles, histograms, and statistical tables for the quadrangle.

Final report analyzing aerial gamma ray and magnetic data in the Lake Charles and Port Arthur quadrangles, including a detailed geologic summary, interpretation report, reduced scale copies of all maps and profiles, histograms, and statistical tables for the quadrangle.

From introduction: In this study on raw material sources of uranium the Southern Interstate Nuclear Board has catalogued all known occurrences of uranium and some references to thorium in a 17-state area (P1. 1). These occurrences have been evaluated as potential sources of uranium by the State Geological Surveys and the consultant group of SINB. Favorability guides have been applied to the known occurrences and recommendations have been made for future action by the states involved, federal agencies, or by industry. State recommendations are included in state-by-state summaries. The state reports were written either by personnel of the State Geological Surveys or were abstracted from State geological survey data by members of the consultant group...The purpose of this study was to compile information on and systematically assess uranium and other radioactive occurrences in the region. The SINB undertook the project because of its statutory, interstate capability as an extension of government in each of the 17 states, an arrangement that lends itself effectively to this cooperative undertaking.

The following report is the independent product of the Accident Investigation Committee which was commissioned by the Department of Energy following the accident on September 21, 1978, at the Strategic Petroleum Reserve site at West Hackberry, Louisiana.

From introduction: This report presents the findings of surveys of the extent of the oil fields in the gulf coastal plain.

Foldout poster detailing the physical setting and socioeconomics of the Chenier Plain ecosystem. Discussion of habitats including ridge, upland forest, wetlands, aquatic, agricultural, and urban.

This report describes the results of a series of tests on soil borings taken in Atchafalaya Test Section VI, a 2000-ft-long portion of the Atchafalaya Basin Protection Levee System in south-central Louisiana. The samples were tested to interpret the depositional layers in the foundations soils and to determine various engineering properties.

This report describes damage to structures by Hurricane Camille in qualitative terms, and with photographs. The investigation was carried out by a team sponsored by the Office of Civil Defense, and it includes conclusions and recommendations.

Series of pile loading tests performed on the Morganza Floodway control structure to determine the most economic way to support the foundation in the compressible underlying soils. The report also provides information about the structure and previous tests.

"The purpose of this report is to consolidate data gathered by the Corps of Engineers in various geologic investigations, and to augment this material with pertinent information garnered from the extensive investigations and studies [of the Mississippi River deltaic plain and its associated offshore area]" (p. 1). The report focuses primarily on those materials that are most important from an engineering standpoint.

Preface: The present paper is the first of a new series to be published by the Geological Survey under the title "Shorter contributions to general geology."

First report regarding geotechnical field investigations meant to apply current state-of-the-art knowledge and methods to assessing the in situ characteristics of susceptible point bar deposits below Baton Rouge.

Summary: "This report maps the distribution of soils which border the Mississippi between river mile 189 and Head of Passes in southeast Louisiana with special regard to their engineering significance. The subsurface disposition of depositional environments and their associated soil types are shown on 34 subsurface profiles. The text describes the physiographic and geologic development of the area studied, summarizes physical and engineering characteristics of the engineering soil types mapped, and discusses some of the effects of geologic factors on river migration" (p. vii).
