  • By W. David Menzie and Helen L. Foster Open-File Report 78-529 D This Report Is Preliminary and Has Not Been Edited Or Reviewed
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY METALLIFEROUS AND SELECTED NONMETALLI FERGUS MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL IN THE BIG DELTA QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By W. David Menzie and Helen L. Foster Open-File Report 78-529 D This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Geological Survey standards or nomenclature METALLIFEROUS AND SELECTED NONMETALLIFERGUS MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL IN THE BIG DELTA QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By W. David Menzie and Helen L. Foster Introduction This report is an assessment of the metalliferous mineral potential of the Big Delta quadrangle, Alaska, by tract and by type of deposit, and a discussion of the occurrence of selected nonmetallic resources. The assess­ ment is based on investigations of the geology, geochemistry, geophysics, and telegeology of the area. Geologic investigations included regional scale (1:250,000) reconnaissance geologic mapping (Weber and others, 1978), age dating of selected igneous rocks (Wilson, 1976), and chemical analysis of mineralized and unmineralized rocks (Foster and others, 1978). Geochemical investigations included analysis of the minus 80 mesh fraction of stream sediments, analysis of the nonmagnetic heavy mineral concentrates of stream sediments, analysis of the oxide residue of stream sediments, and analysis of the ash of willow leaves and twigs (O'Leary and others, 1978; Hessin and others, 1978a-j). Geophysical investigations consisted of an airborne aeromagnetic survey of the quadrangle (Alaska Div. Geophys. Surveys, 1975) and an interpretation of the aeromagnetic data (Griscorn, 1978). Telegeologic investigations consisted of an interpretation of Landsat imagery of the quadrangle (Albert and Steele, 1978). Acknowledgments The preparation of this report was facilitated by the efforts of a number of people.

  • Timeline of Maine Skiing New England Ski Museum in Preparation for 2015 Annual Exhibit
    Timeline of Maine Skiing New England Ski Museum In preparation for 2015 Annual Exhibit Mid 1800s: “…the Maine legislature sought to populate the vast forests of northern Maine. It offered free land to anyone who would take up the challenge of homesteading in this wilderness. ...Widgery Thomas, state legislator and ex-Ambassador to Sweden…suggested that the offer of free land be made to people in Sweden. In May, 1870 Thomas sailed for Sweden to offer 100 acres of land to any Swede willing to settle in Maine. Certificates of character were required. Thomas himself had to approve each recruit.” Glenn Parkinson, First Tracks: Stories from Maine’s Skiing Heritage . (Portland: Ski Maine, 1995), 4. March 1869: “In March 1869 the state resolved “to promote the settlement of the public and other lands” by appointing three commissioners of settlement. William Widgery Thomas, Jr., one of the commissioners, had extensive diplomatic experience as ambassador to Sweden for Presidents Arthur and Harrison. Thomas had lived among the Swedes for years and was impressed with their hardy quality. He returned to the United States convinced that Swedes would make just the right sort of settlers for Maine. When Thomas became consul in Goteborg (Gothenburg), he made immediate plans for encouraging Swedes to emigrate to America.” E. John B. Allen, “”Skeeing” in Maine: The Early Years, 1870s to 1920s”, Maine Historical Society Quarterly , 30, 3 & 4, Winter, Spring 1991, 149. July 23, 1870 "Widgery Thomas and his group of 22 men, 11 women and 18 children arrived at a site in the woods north of Caribou.

  • Cumulative Impacts to Environmental Conditions on the Presumpscot River and Its Shorelands
    Cumulative Impacts to Environmental Conditions on the Presumpscot River and its Shorelands (DRAFT -- As distributed at the June 2002 Public Meetings) Title Page pictures Deleted due to large memory size. See separate file Prepared by the Presumpscot River Plan Steering Committee With Technical Assistance Provided by Land and Water Associates Hallowell, Maine And Funding and Assistance Provided by Casco Bay Estuary Project June 11, 2002 ADDENDUM April 18, 2003 Note on the Scope of Analysis for this Cumulative Impacts Report: The geographic scope of this analysis of cumulative impacts is the Presumpscot River from its outlet at Sebago Lake, including its tributaries and adjacent corridor lands, to and including the Casco Bay Estuary. This report addresses the impacts of the regulation of flows out of Sebago Lake at the Eel Weir Dam on the river and Casco Bay Estuary, since the flow regime on the river is almost entirely controlled by management of the Eel Weir Dam, and the Presumpscot River is the largest source of freshwater to Casco Bay. However, it does not include or address issues related to Sebago Lake levels. Comments received at the June 2002 public information meetings raised concerns about the impacts of flow regulation at the Eel Weir Dam on Sebago lake shorelands and wetlands. While it is acknowledged that the regulation of flows at the Eel Weir Dam has impacts not only on the river and estuary but also on Sebago Lake, these impacts are not addressed in this report, and there are no recommendations included in the report to change operations at the Eel Weir Dam.
