Report of the Committee on Fisheries detailing the opinions and recommendations of the Committee on the proposed Senate bill 6460 to provide for the establishment of a shad hatchery on the Kennebec River in the State of Maine. It includes a letter from the Secretary of Commerce and Labor on the proposed legislation.

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."

From Introduction: "Figure 1 shows the location of sources that have been either exploited or seriously considered at one time or another, super-imposed upon a map indicating by small letters the order of consumption of K2O in the leading States; the amount used in these States, together with the percentage of the total consumption of potash used as fertilizer in the United States in 1939, is given in table 1. Figure 2 shows the domestic production and total consumption of potassium salts, in terms of tons of K2O, with the value per unit at the plants, for each year since 1913. Considered together, these two figures tell a significant story."

Report discussing the U.S. Geological Survey's measurement of radioactivity of rocks along 4,600 miles of road in Maine.

A report regarding study data related to radioactive rocks in Maine and various sampling to determine types and grades of rocks in the area.

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over studies conducted on manganese deposits in the Maple Mountain and Hovey Mountain area. The history, character, and physical descriptions of the deposits are presented. This report includes tables, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

The following report covers a reconnaissance for radioactive materials that was made in parts of Maine, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. It's primary objective was to examine the iron ore deposits and associated rocks in Adirondack Mountains of New York and the Highlands of New Jersey. Additionally, several deposits known or reported to contain radioactive minerals were examined to delimit their extent. However, most of the deposits examined are not significant as possible sources of radioactive elements and the data pertaining to them are summarized in tables provided.

Report discussing reconnaissance for radioactive materials in parts of Maine, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania during 1952. From Abstract: "The primary objective was to examine the iron ore deposits and associated rocks in the Adirondack Mountains of New York and the Highlands of New Jersey."

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over investigations conducted on manganese deposits in Maine. Details of the history, physical features, and geology are presented. This report includes tables, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

This report describes a summary of information available on substation locations,elevations,exposures and many from date station established to 1955.

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over studies conducted on manganese deposits of Aroostook County, Maine. Descriptions of the deposits, and the results of the study are presented. This report includes tables, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

This volume describes the final results from completed investigational programs intended to test the performance of various concrete materials exposed to weathering.

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over manganese deposits of Aroostook County, Maine. As stated in the introduction, "the work was undertaken to determine the extent of deposits largely concealed under glacial drift and to obtain subsurface sampled for manganese mineral identification and research in ore dressing and extractive metallurgy" (p. 1). This report includes tables, maps, and illustrations.

Report issued by the Bureau of mines over studies conducted on beryllium deposits in New England. Evaluations of the deposits are presented and discussed. This report includes tables, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

From Purpose and Scope of Study: "The Portland Quadrangle, Maine, and New Hampshire (Fig. 1), was evaluated by identifying districts and rock units that exhibit characteristics favorable for uranium deposits (Mickle and Mathews, eds., 1978)."

Appendix D of a study on the productivity of minor marsh plants in Delaware, Georgia, and Maine. This appendix contains summaries of data collected from the study.

Appendix containing data tables of the mean value of tidal data collected between various sites.

This appendix contains data tables recording mineral compositions of underground macro-organic matter discovered between Delaware, Maine, and Georgia.

Appendix providing data tables describing soil profiles for soils supporting the tidal marsh plants in Georgia, Delaware, and Maine.

Abstract: "This report summarizes the importance of common species of salt marsh plants inhabiting wetlands of the eastern U.S. coast. An evaluation of the ecological significance of the plants is based on their rates of primary production, morality, and contribution of detritus to the estuarine dependent systems. The data are important in reaching decisions relative to the deposition of dredged material in these coastal wetland systems."

Appendix providing data sets on the monthly climatological sample records from NOAA.

Appendix A presents data tables recording the underground biomass for depth zones in stands of marsh plants.

From abstract: On February 6-8, 1978, New England was battered by one of the most severe winter storms of record. The storm produced record snowfall in many areas of Rhode Island and Massachusetts...This report contains data which document the flooding along parts of the New England coast. Elevations of 203 floodmarks in Massachusetts, 104 in Maine, and 46 in New Hampshire are given. Also included are some historical coastal flood data and a list of other storm-related studies.
