This publication represents the seventh modification of the City of San Antonio's Affirmative Action plan, which provides comparative analysis of the City's Non-Public Safety and Public Safety Workforce utilization, a summation of departmental goal achievement, and establishes one-year goals to address sex and race/ethnic underutilizations within the City's workforce.

In recent months there has been a growing congressional interest in the advantages and disadvantages of revamping our current tax system for a flat-rate tax method. Supporters of the new proposal argue that such a plan would promote productivity, simplify present IRS tax forms, save the public billions of dollars that presently go to tax-preparation professionals, and enhance Federal revenue by closing numerous tax loopholes and special deductions that are now enjoyed by relatively few. Opponents believe, however, that the tax burden under a flat-rate plan might fall more heavily upon the middle class and, unless exceptions were made, would hurt educational institutions and charities. Problems with popular tax deductions, such as home mortgage interest, would have to be addressed. This packet provides background materials which discuss the practical and theoretical issues that surround a flat-rate tax, including the probable redistribution of the tax burden under various rates and income bases.

Monthly publication of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston documenting news, events, and information of interest to health science professionals.

From Introduction: "The Augusta Quadrangle, Georgia, and South Carolina, was evaluated to identify geologic environments and delineate areas that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. Geologic environments were evaluated and subsequently categorized as favorable or unfavorable on the basis of surface investigation and subsurface data."

Appendices containing data on uranium availability in the Augusta Quadrangle in addition to location and gamma-ray spectrometer data to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in Georgia and South Carolina.

From Abstract: "Uranium resources of the Austin Quadrangle, Texas, were evaluated to a depth of 1500m. Criteria developed for the National Uranium Resource Evaluation program were used to delineate areas and identify environments favorable for the deposition of uranium. Uranium occurrences reported in the literature were located, described, and sampled."

Appendices containing uranium occurrence reports for the Austin Quadrangle in addition to chemical analysis data of rock and well-water samples and well logs to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in Texas.

From Introduction: "The Beaumont Quadrangle, Texas (National Topographic Map Series), was evaluated to a depth of 1500 m (5,000 ft) to identify geologic environments and delineate areas that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits."

Appendices containing data on uranium availability, chemical analyses, electric well logs, and gamma-ray well logs to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in the Beaumont Quadrangle, Texas.

From Introduction: "The Greensboro Quadrangle is in North Carolina and Virginia between lat. 36ºN. and 37ºN. and long. 78ºW. and 80ºW. (Fig. 1). The quadrangle was evaluated to identify and delineate areas favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits."

Appendices containing data on uranium availability in Greensboro Quadrangle to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in North Carolina and Virginia.

From Introduction: "The Klamath Falls Quadrangle, in south-central Oregon between lat 42º and 43º N. and long 120º and 122º W. (Fig. 1), was evaluated to identify geologic environments and delineate areas with characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits."

Appendices containing survey data of the Klamath Falls Quadrangle in Oregon for uranium availability to accompany a report on U.S uranium resources in Oregon.

From Introduction: "The Lemmon Quadrangle, South Dakota and North Dakota, was evaluated to identify geologic environments and delineate areas that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits."

Appendices containing data on uranium availability in the Lemmon Quadrangle to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in South and North Dakota.

Purpose and Scope: "The McAllen and Brownsville Quadrangles, Texas (Fig. 1), were evaluated to a depth of 1500 m (5,000 ft) to identify geologic environments and delineate areas that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. Favorable environments, as determined by surface and subsurface investigation, are those that could contain uranium deposits of at least 100 tons U3O8 at an average grade not less than 100 ppm U3O8."

Appendices containing data on uranium availability in the McAllen-Brownsville Quadrangles in addition to tabulated electric and gamma-ray logs to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in Texas.

From Purpose and Scope of Study: "The McDermitt NTMS Quadrangle, Nevada, was evaluated to identify and delineate areas and geologic units that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. Geologic environments were evaluated primarily on the basis of surface investigations; only a limited amount of subsurface data was available. Each environment was categorized as favorable, unfavorable, or unevaluated for uranium deposits."
