Report of a hydraulic model investigation "to determine the most economical method of providing protection for Cumberland and Ridgeley against floods somewhat greater than the flood of March 1936 Specifically, the model was used to determine: the proper sections and grades of channels required to pass the design flood with maximum reductions in flood stages; the minimum heights of levees and walls; and the channel treatment required at bridges to insure the safe passage of floodwaters with minimum alterations to the structures" (p. 4).

Report discussing radioactive coal in northern West Virginia. From Abstract: "The commercially important coal beds in the Monongahela series of Pennsylvanian age and coal and shale of the Dunkard series of Permian age were examined and sampled in eight counties in northern West Virginia."

The following report covers a reconnaissance study that was made of radioactivity of coal and associated rock in the coal fields of eastern Kentucky and Logan Mingo counties, W. Va. Samples of coal, carbonaceous shale, marine shale, flint clay, and dike rock were discovered and radioactivity within these samples were measured.

Report discussing radioactivity measurements of samples of coal and associated rock that were collected during a reconnaissance study in the coal fields of eastern Kentucky, as well as Logan and Mingo counties, West Virginia.

Report discussing the U.S. Geological Survey's investigation of uraniferous coals and shales found in southern West Virginia and southwestern Virginia. Information regarding the general area, stratigraphy, structural geology, radioactivity of measured sections, radioactivity of collected samples, and conclusions are included.

From Summary and Conclusions: "This report deals with upgrading to metal-lurgical standards of large reserves of high-sulfur Pittsburgh coal remaining in southwestern Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia."

From Forward: "This bulletin is the first of a new series, which includes analyses of only tipple and delivered coal. It covers samples collected throughout the United States from July 1, 1947 to June 30, 1950 (fiscal years 1948-50). It is planned that future publications of this series will cover a period of one fiscal year only and be issued as soon as possible after June 30 of each year."

From Introduction and Summary: "This report gives results of investigation of the carbonizing properties of coals from Pittsburgh bed, Jamison No. 9 mine, Marion County, W. Va., and from Upper Free-port bed, Bull Run No.1 mine, Preston County, W. Va.

From Introduction and Summary: "Reports from operating companies showed that 25,715 men worked at coke ovens in 1951, about 6 percent more than were employed in 1950 and, except in 1943, the largest work force since 1930, when 28,139 men were employed. The work time for all employees was 70,190,493 man-hours. The returns indicated an average of 344 work days per man as compared with 341 days in the previous year. Accidents at the ovens resulted in the death of 10 and injury to 768 workers, both of these figures representing fewer injuries than in 1950."

From Introduction and Summary: "This paper gives results of an investigation of the composition and carbonizing properties of coals from Pocahontas No.3 bed, Lake superior No.4 mine, McDowell County, W.Va.; Eagle bed, Cannelton No.3 mine, Fayette County, W.Va; and No.2 Gas bed, Cannelton No.100 mine, Kanawha County, W. Va."
