By M. R. HALL and R. H. BOLSTER. INTRODUCTION. AUTHORITY FOR INVESTIGATIONS. This volume contains results of flow measurements made on cer­ tain streams in the United States. The work was performed by the water-resources branch of the United States Geological Survey, either independently or in cooperation with organizations mentioned herein. These investigations are authorized by the organic law of the Geological Survey (Stat. L., vol. 20, p. 394), which provides, among other things, as follows: Provided that this officer [the Director] shall have the direction of the Geological Survey and the classification of public lands and examination of the geological struc­ ture, mineral resources, and products of the national domain. Inasmuch as water is the most abundant and most valuable mineral in nature the investigation of water resources is included under the above provision for investigating mineral resources. The work has been supported since the fiscal year ending June 30, 1895, by appropriations in successive sundry civil bills passed by Congress under the following item: For gauging the streams and determining the water supply of the United States, and for the investigation of underground currents and artesian wells, and for the prepara­ tion of reports upon the best methods of utilizing the water resources. The various appropriations that have been made for this purpose are as follows: Annual appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30 1895. .............................................................. $12,500 1896............................................................... 20, 000 1897 to 1900,inclusive...............................................

(1) Use classifications utilized by the State of Alabama are as follows: Outstanding Alabama Water ................... OAW Public Water Supply ......................... PWS Swimming and Other Whole Body Shellfish Harvesting ........................ SH Fish and Wildlife ........................... F&W Limited Warmwater Fishery ................... LWF Agricultural and Industrial Water Supply ................................ A&I (2) Use classifications apply water quality criteria adopted for particular uses based on existing utilization, uses reasonably expected in the future, and those uses not now possible because of correctable pollution but which could be made if the effects of pollution were controlled or eliminated. Of necessity, the assignment of use classifications must take into consideration the physical capability of waters to meet certain uses. (3) Those use classifications presently included in the standards are reviewed informally by the Department's staff as the need arises, and the entire standards package, to include the use classifications, receives a formal review at least once every three years. Efforts currently underway through local 201 planning projects will provide additional technical data on certain waterbodies in the State, information on treatment alternatives, and applicability of various management techniques, which, when available, will hopefully lead to new decisions regarding use classifications. Of particular interest are those segments which are currently classified for any usage which has an associated Supp.

  • Geologic Controls on the Morphology of the Chattooga River
    Geologic Controls on the Morphology of the Chattooga River Scott E. Brame Geological Sciences Clemson University Clemson, SC 29634 and Robert D. Hatcher, Jr. Earth and Planetary Sciences and Science Alliance Center of Excellence University of Tennessee Knoxville, TN 37996–1410 Abstract The East fork of the Wild and Scenic Chattooga River drains the south side of Whiteside Mountain in North Carolina and flows in a predominant southwesterly direction following the predominant joint direction, and to a much lesser extent the foliation, until it turns sharply to the southeast becoming part of the Savannah River system and flows to the Atlantic Ocean. Paralleling the northeast to southwest trend is the Brevard fault zone and two other river systems, the Chauga River in South Carolina and the Chattahoochee River in Georgia. The Chauga follows a pattern similar to that of the Chattooga, turning sharply to the southeast after flowing predominantly to the southwest from its headwaters. The locations that mark the abrupt turn of the flow of the Chattooga and Chauga Rivers from the southwest to the southeast are likely the result of stream piracy as proposed by Acker and Hatcher. The upper sections of the Chattooga and Chauga represent an extension of the Dahlonega Plateau with a topographic surface that has a maximum elevation of approximately 1600 feet. The 1600’ surface is a piedmont surface at the base of the Blue Ridge. Differential erosion along northeast- and northwest-trending joint sets has exerted a powerful control on the development of the landscape. The northwest-trending joint sets have encouraged headward erosion and breaching of the Dahlonega Plateau surface resulting in stream capture of both the Chattooga and Chauga watersheds by the Savannah River system.
