INTRODUCTION

This circular contains a list of the maps and reports released by the Geological Survey in 1955 that 

are available only in open files. They may be consulted 

in the Geological Survey Library, in Washington, D. C., 

and at various field offices, the addresses of which are 

given immediately after the date of the report. They 

may also be read at the offices of various cooperating 

agencies, as indicated.

The following circulars list open-file reports and 

maps released during the years indicated: 56 (1946-47), 

64 (1948), 149 (1949-50), 227 (1951), 263 (1952), 337 

(1953), and 364 (1954).

Most of the maps were duplicated by rapid and 

inexpensive processes, such as photostat, vandyke, 

or ozalid, but some were printed by photolithography. 

Most of the texts for the reports are typed copies (ribbon or carbon copy), but some have been mimeographed. 

A few of these reports and maps were made available 

in limited quantities for distribution, as indicated in 

the list, and these may be obtained as long as the supply lasts.

The reports of the Conservation Division concern 

the potential waterpower of Grant, Ptarmigan, Cooper, 

and Crescent Lakes on the Kenai Peninsula near Seward, 

Alaska and the geology of waterpower sites on Scenery, 

Cascade, and Delta Creeks near Petersburg, Alaska.

The reports and maps of the Geologic Division 

contain results of work accomplished by Survey geologists in 21 States, Alaska, Canada, and Bolivia. 

These maps and reports are released in preliminary 

form in order to make information immediately available to persons concerned with exploration for and production of minerals, fuels, and construction materials.

The reports of the Water Resources Division 

contain information on streamflow, ground water, 

quality of water, and related' geology and hydrology 

in iiie United States, Alaska, and Puerto Rico.

A general index follows, in which the reader is 

referred to a report by its serial number as listed in 

the following list of reports, which are arranged alphabetically by names of the authors.
