MAC SWINFORD2, Department of Geology, Eastern Kentucky University, Richmond, KY 40475 ABSTRACT. The rock sequence exposed in the Peebles quadrangle, Adams Co., Ohio, consists of over 240 m of Ordovician through Mississippian age rocks. These carbonate rocks, shales, and sandstones have been subdivided into 13 formations. Units which have been recently recognized in this area include the Bull Fork Formation (Upper Or- dovician), the Preachersville Member of the Drakes Formation (Upper Ordovician), the Drowning Creek Formation (Silurian), and the Three Lick Tongue of the Chagrin Member of the Ohio Shale (Upper Devonian). These strata generally dip 6—8 m per km to the east, but the dip increases to 10—11 m per km in the southeast portion of the quadrangle. The increase in dip is due to the Adams Co. monocline. The monocline is thought to be the result of draping of Paleozoic rocks over a possible basement fault. OHIOJ.

GEOLOGY OF THE PEEBLES QUADRANGLE 219 and majority of the Peebles quadrangle consists of the Interior Low Plateau region. This topography contains low rolling hills with some moderately steep-walled valleys which have 30—61 m of relief. The abrupt change of the rugged topography of the Appalachian Plateau to the landforms of the Interior Low Plateau creates a boundary called the Appalachian Escarpment. The escarpment is present in the southeast por- tion of the Peebles quadrangle as a north- east-trending lineament. Ohio Brush Creek and Scioto Brush Creek are the main drainage basins within the Peebles quadrangle.

Previous Work The Brassfield Formation has been studied at least since before 1838 by Owen in Indiana. It was originally correlated with the Clinton of New York by Orton {1871), based on strat­ igraphy and lithology rather than on faunal evidence. Due to differences in fauna, Foerst (1896) proposed a land barrier between the two and proposed the name Montgomery limestone for the typical development in Montgomery County, Ohio. The name lapsed, and in 1906 he renamed the Clinton beds in Ken­ tucky the Brassfield, and three years later he did the same for the Clinton age beds in Ohio.

Pipeline operators that can affect "unusually sensitive areas" (USAs) must develop and follow an integrity management program to assess and evaluate the integrity of their pipelines. After extensive consultation with experts, government agencies, and other stakeholders, a process was developed to identify USAs for drinking water and ecological resources. In general the USA identification process involves selecting a subset of USA candidates from the larger group of Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESAs), and then applying various filter criteria to the candidates to determine final USAs. For drinking water USAs this means identifying potentially sensitive public water systems (PWS), specifically surface water intakes and ground water wells, and subjecting them to filter

    information t o u s e r s This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of usefs indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Conodonts of the Estill Shale and Bisher Formation (Silurian, Southern Ohio): Biostratigraphy and Distribution1
    78 M. A. LAMB AND R. L. LOWE Vol. 87 Conodonts of the Estill Shale and Bisher Formation (Silurian, Southern Ohio): Biostratigraphy and Distribution1 MARK A. KLEFFNER, Department of Geology and Mineralogy, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210 ABSTRACT. Representatives of 20 species of conodonts have been isolated from samples of the Silurian Estill Shale and Bisher Formation at four localities in southern Ohio. The Estill belongs in the amorphognathoides Zone and is late Llandoverian to early Wenlockian. The Estill-Bisher contact is an unconformity. In Adams and southern Highland counties, the Bisher belongs in the middle and upper ranuliformis Zone and is late early to possibly early middle Wenlockian; in northern Highland County the Bisher belongs in the lower ranuliformis Zone and is middle early to late early Wenlockian. The Estill was deposited in a gradually shoaling sea that regressed from Adams and Highland counties in the early Wenlockian. The sea transgressed south- ward across the two counties later in the early Wenlockian and deposited the Bisher in a shallow, subtidal environment. OHIO J.

TODD HENDRICKS, DANIEL J. PHELPS & LAWRENCE A. GORDON ETTENSOHN, F.R., LIERMAN, R.T., MASON, C.E., ANDREWS, W.M., HENDRICKS, R.T., PHELPS, D.J. & GORDON, L.A., 2013:04:26. The Silurian of central Kentucky, U.S.A.: Stratigraphy, palaeoenvironments and palaeoecology. Memoirs of the Association of Australasian Palaeontologists 44, 159-189. ISSN 0810-8889. Silurian rocks in Kentucky are exposed on the eastern and western flanks of the Cincinnati Arch, a large-wavelength cratonic structure separating the Appalachian foreland basin from the intracratonic Illinois Basin. The Cincinnati Arch area experienced uplift during latest Ordovician-early Silurian time, so that the exposed Silurian section is relatively thin due to onlap and post- Silurian erosional truncation on the arch. On both flanks of the arch, dolomitic carbonates predominate, but the section on the eastern side reflects a more shale-rich ramp that faced eastern Appalachian source areas. In the Silurian section on the western side of the arch, which apparently developed across a platform-like isolation-accommodation zone, shales are rare except dur- ing some highstand episodes, and rocks in the area reflect deposition across a broad, low-gradient shelf area, interrupted by structurally controlled topographic breaks. Using the progression of interpreted depositional environments and nearshore faunal communities, a relative sea-level curve, which parallels those of previous workers, was generated for the section in Kentucky. While the curve clearly shows the influence of glacial eustasy, distinct indications of the far-field, flexural influence of Taconian and Salinic tectonism are also present.
