  • Coal Investigation in the Saline-Gallatin Field, Illinois, and the Adjoining Area.
    COAL INVESTIGATION IN THE SALINE-GALLATIN FIELD, ILLINOIS, AND THE ADJOINING AREA. By FRANK W. DEWOLF. INTRODUCTION. The area here described is near the southwest edge of the Eastern Interior coal field, lying mostly in Illinois, but extending also into Indiana and Kentucky. Its boundaries are slightly beyond those of the Eldorado and New Haven quadrangles, and it measures 30^ miles from east to west and 18^ miles from north to south, thus including approximately 550 square miles. Parts of four counties in Illinois Saline, Gallatin, White, and Hamilton are comprised within the area. Coal production in this region is increasing so rapidly that geologic work carried on here assumes an important economic aspect. The rapid development of this part of the coal basin is due to the excellent quality of the fuel, its extensive distribution, and favorable mining conditions. The production to date has been entirely in the Illinois portion of the area and until the last year only in Gallatin and Saline counties. White County also is now producing. In 1906 the area included in this report produced 314,927 tons, a gain of 115 per cent over 1905.a Coal mining in the Eldorado quadrangle is facilitated by the presence of several railroads; the New Haven quadrangle has none. The whole area, however, has so little relief that it can be easily reached by railroads where desired. This preliminary statement of geologic field work performed during three autumn months of 1906 is the first published report for this area since 1875,& though adjoining areas in Indiana 0 and Kentucky d have received later attention.

Major Professor , ,4 ABSTRACT Thirty - four genera and 64 species, varieties, and forms of diatoms are reported from a survey of three streams in Ellis County, Kansas. Brief systematic accounts are provided for most of these taxa. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Dr. Thomas Wenke for suggesting this survey and for his assistance throughout the project. Dr. Ruth Patrick of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia served as my tutor in diatom taxonomy during the summers of 1979 and 1980; the latter was supported by a travel grant from the McHenry Fund at the Academy.

  • Status Survey of the Western Fanshell and the Neosho Mucket in Oklahoma
    1990 c.3 OKLAHOMA <) PROJECT TITLE: STATUS SURVEY OF THE WESTERN FANSHELL AND THE NEOSHO MUCKET IN OKLAHOMA To determine the distribution and abundance of the freshwater mussels Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad) and Lampsilis rafinesqueana Frierson in Oklahoma. A survey to determine the status of the freshwater mussels, Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad) and Lampsilis rafinesqueana Frierson, in Oklahoma was completed during August and September, 1989. These species are also known by the common names of Western Fanshell and Neosho Mucket, respectively. The western fanshell is probably extinct in the state. It is known that the species formerly occurred in the Verdigris River in Oklahoma and as a result of this study, was determined that it had also existed in the Caney River. However, no evidence of living or fresh specimens was found in any river system in northeastern Oklahoma. The Neosho mucket has also disappeared from most of its former range within the state and presently only occurs in a segment of the Illinois River system extending from the Lake Frances dam near the Arkansas border to Lake Tenkiller. Protection for this species is recommended. This report describes efforts to determine the status of two species of freshwater mussels (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Unionidae) in Oklahoma. Both species are generally considered to be rare and have rather limited geographical distributions. Both species may meet the criteria of endangered species and thus it was considered important to gain some information as to their current status. Both species have been recorded in Oklahoma but their current abundance and distribution in the state were unknown. The western fanshell, Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad) was described in 1850 from specimens collected on the rapids of the Verdigris River, Chambers' Ford, Oklahoma (Johnson, 1980).

Contact Name: Title: Affiliation: Address: Telephone: E-mail Address: Date Option Submitted: 02/06/2012 Option Name: Missouri River Reuse Project Description of Option: The Missouri River Reuse option is a diversion of up to 600,000 AFY of water from the Missouri River for reuse within the Missouri River Basin of Kansas and Colorado. Water would be diverted from the Missouri River only when flows to support navigation and municipal water diversions along the river from Leavenworth, Kansas to Saint Louis, Missouri, are not impaired. 1. Within Kansas, the water would be used to fill surface reservoirs and recharge depleted aquifers in the upper and lower Republican River Basins, Solomon River Basin, and Smoky-Hill/Saline River Basin as determined from assessment of need and feasibility by the Kansas State Water Office in cooperation with the Kansas Division of Water Resources, Army Corps of Engineers, and the States of Colorado and Nebraska. In particular, the water would be used for irrigation and municipal, commercial, and industrial use and to recharge the Ogallala aquifer in western Kansas. Each of these basins (including the Ogallala aquifer in northwest Kansas) is tributary to the Missouri River. The Ogallala aquifer discharges into the Republican River in northeast Colorado and northwest Kansas. Kansas may choose to construct new reservoirs or enlarge existing reservoirs for the project.
