Report regarding an airborne gamma-radioactivity survey that took place in the 2,800 square mile area around the Los Angeles region in California. Topics include the types of bedrock noted in the area as well as their levels of radioactivity.

This report follows an aeroradioactivity survey that took place in the San Francisco region, California.

"An Aerial Radiographic Measuring Survey (ARMS) of the Arguello area was made for the Civil Effects Test Operations, Division of Biology and Medicine, U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, by Edgerton, Germeshausen & Grier, Inc.(EG&G), between Apr. 5 and Apr. 29, 1962. The survey was part of a nationwide program to measure the present environmental levels of gamma radiation" (p. 5).

From foreward: "This is another of a series of reports designed to present accounts of progress on saline water conversion with the expectation that the exhange of such data will contribute to the long range development of economical processes applicable to large scale desalination plants for conversion of sea and other saline waters." This particular report describes various aspects of a demonstration plant in San Diego, California.

From Introduction: "The present report describes the condition of all of the porcelain enamels after exposure for 3 yr."

From abstract: "This report summarizes the geology of a shaft excavated for the proposed nuclear reactor and discusses geologic features on Bodega Head and on Point Reyes peninsula that relate to geologic aspects of earthquake-resistant design."

The following report covers the study of the site adjacent to Campbell Cove on Bodega Head, Sonoma County, California, focusing on questions such as: 1) its position relative to the San Andreas fault zone; 2) the possibility that minor faults, related to the San Andreas fault, might actually pass through the site; and 3) the seismic hazards posed by the nearby San Andreas fault zone.

From introduction: This report describes the geology of the area only to the extent necessary for preliminary evaluation of the possibilities for the disposal of liquid radioactive waste by injection through deep wells. Their value will increase with development of extensive commercial production of atomic power and attendant creation of radioactive waste from the processing of spent fuel elements. The disposal of liquid waste in deep reservoirs is only one of several possibilities that must be considered.

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing mining methods and operations of mercury at the New Idria Mine. As stated in the introduction, "the purpose of this report is to promote the development and conservation of our mineral resources by dissemination of technological information on mining and processing procedures, and related practices at operating mines" (p. 1). This report includes maps, tables, illustrations, and photographs.

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing mining methods and costs from Abbott Mine in Lake County, California. As stated in the introduction, "this report summarizes past operations and describes, in detail, the geology and ore deposits; exploration and mining methods; and furnacing and condensing operations. It covers the entire operation from initial exploration to the actual production of mercury" (p. 1). This report includes maps, tables, illustrations, and photographs.

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing mining costs and methods of the Black Rock Tungsten Mine in Mono County, California. As stated in the summary, "this report is one of a series prepared by the Bureau of Mines on exploration, development, mining methods, and costs at various mines in the United States" (p. 1). This report includes maps, illustrations, and photographs.

From introduction: This report presents a summary of the graptolite faunas of the Basin Ranges as known from the collections of the U.S. Geological Survey and the Departments of Geology of the University of California at Los Angeles and Utah State University. The collections were made in the period 1872-1958, but only a very small number of specimens have been described or illustrated in the 80 or so years elapsed.

From introduction: "Following the USSR announcement of its intention to resume testing, arrangements were made for the three stations collecting individual rainfall samples to begin analyses for short-lived nuclides. Some of the data are now available and are reported here." From Data: "The available data, including samples for Houston, Texas and Louisville, Kentucky are given in the tables at the end of this report."

From Summary and Conclusions: "The apparatus and experimental methods used to measure relative permeability-saturation relationships by the unsteady-state displacement method are described for gas-oil systems. The unique feature of the apparatus-design of the gas-oil separator-is described in detail."

Graded and annotated report by Harris L. Kempner, Jr. for his MFG II class at Stanford University attempting to address "four problem areas" within the H. Kempner firm's manufacturing processes. It was for his Manufacturing II class, taught by Mr. Henry B. Eyring. He received a B- for the report.

A report about a hypothetical Middletown National Bank, published by Stanford University for use in their Graduate School of Business. It appears to be a handout for use in instruction and/or homework assignments.

Criminal intelligence report addressed to Captain W. P. Gannaway of the Special Service Bureau in Dallas, Texas. The report, which was submitted by detective R. W. Westphal, states that Kay Helen Coleman and Harry Olsen are living in Long Beach, California.

Resume and job application by Declan P. Ford. Ford had experience doing geological studies. He was a member of the U. S. Navy from 1942 to 1945. A short report at the end of the application states that Ford's wife, Katherine, was known to have stated that Communism had merit. Katherine Ford, who was Russian, had been seen with Marina Oswald.

Report issued by the Office of Saline Water over studies conducted on the reverse-osmosis program. The methods of desalination through osmosis are discussed. This report includes tables, illustrations, and photographs.

Report documenting the ongoing progress and operations of the saline water conversion demonstration plant in San Diego, California.

Abstract: "This report discusses tests conducted to determine the accuracy of meteorological equipment which is used to gather upper air data. Equipment tested was the GMD-2, SMD-1A, GMD-1B, and the WBRT-57. A four-station phototheodolite network was used as a standard for point-in-space determinations."
