Report discussing a 1948 geological examination of 7,662 miles of roadside rocks in Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and southeastern New York to find deposits of radioactive materials.

From abstract: In 1948, 7,662 miles of roadside rocks and soils in Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and southeastern New York were traversed with a car-mounted Geiger-Mueller counter. The observed distribution of the abnormally radioactive rocks and soils is limited to certain areas, herein called "radioactive provinces," that are separated from each other by areas of essentially nonradioactive rock.

"This is one in a series of scientific reports documenting the findings of studies conducted under the Interagency Field Verifications of Testing and Predictive Methodologies for Dredged Material Disposal Alternatives (referred to at the Field Verification Program or FVP). This program is a comprehensive evaluation of environmental effects of dredged material disposal under conditions of upland and aquatic disposal and wetland creation."

This report summarizes habitat development activities at the Nott Island Upland Habitat Development Site in the Connecticut River near Essex, Connecticut, including aspects of engineering, botany, soils, and wildlife.

From purpose and scope: The purpose of this investigation was to estimate the water-yielding potential and water-quality characteristics of a stratified-drift deposits in five areas of Connecticut.

From abstract: A hydrologic analysis based on available data, test drilling, seismic refraction profiling, and the stream-aquifer connection was performed using a digital computer model. The report presents its findings on the quality and availability of the ground and surface water of the Pootatuck River Valley in Connecticut.

From Preface: "In carrying out such a policy with reference to the subject under consideration, the Bureau of Mines invited the State geologists, mine inspectors, and a number of coal operators and oil and gas well drillers from the States interested to meet representatives of the Bureau of Mines in Pittsburgh, Pa., for a discussion of the subject during February 7 and February 8, 1913. This adjourned meeting of the conference will be held at an early date and its report will be printed in a later edition of this bulletin, with such additional suggestions as may be received by the Bureau of Mines. The bureau will be glad, therefore, to receive at the earliest practicable date any additional suggestions or any additional information throwing light on the matters discussed in this bulletin."

From Introduction: "The investigations presented in this bulletin have been undertaken by the bureau with a view to a better understanding of the conditions which confront the producer of commercial feldspar and also with the object of determining wherein the various deposits of feldspar differ."

Report concerning "[a]n airborne gamma-radiation survey of Connecticut, Rhode Island, and parts of New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont" (p. 5) made between 1958 and 1960 that indicated that a broad range of radioactivity exists in those areas depending on the type of bedrock. Correlations are drawn between this radioactivity and the geology of the region.

"This report describes work performed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPS), Environmental research laboratory, Narragansett, R.I. (ERLN), as part of the Interagency Field verification of Testing and predictive Methodologies for Dredged Material Disposal Alternatives Program or the Field Verification Program (FVP)."

From Introduction: "This report covers the information resulting from these tasks and additionally the solution to a serious difficulty in obtaining stable operation and reasonable distillate purity due to foaming and priming which was much more serious in three stage test device than it had been in the original two-stage unit."
