INTRODUCTION". 7

Personnel. The field work for 1907 was done under R. B. Marshall, 

geographer, and the later work under T. G. Gerdine, geographer, 

under the general direction of R. B. Marshall, chief geographer. 

The names of the various levelmen are given in the introduction to 

each list. The office work of computation, adjustment, and preparation of lists was done mainly by S. S. Gannett, geographer, and D. PI. 

Baldwin, topographer, and since 1907 under the general direction of 

E. M. Douglas, geographer.

Classification. The elevations are classified as precise or primary 

according to the methods employed in their determination. For 

precise-level lines instruments and rods of the highest grade are used, 

each line is run both farward and backward, and every precaution 

is taken to guard against error. The allowable divergence between 

the forward and the backward lines in feet is represented by the

formula 0.017-/D, in which D is the distance in miles between bench 

marks. For primary lines standard Y levels are used; lines are run 

in circuits or are closed on precise lines, with an allowable closing 

error in feet represented by 0.05 VI), in which D is the length of the 

circuit in miles, sufficient care being given to the work to maintain 

this standard. For levels of both classes careful office adjustments 

are made, the small outstanding errors being distributed over the 

lines..

Bench marks. The standard bench marks are of two forms. The 

first form is a circular bronze or aluminum tablet (C and E, PI. I), 

3£ inches in diameter and one-quarter inch thick, having a 3-inch 

stem, which is cemented in a drill hole in solid rock in the wall of 

some public building, a bridge abutment, or other substantial masomy structure. The second form (F, PI. I), used where masonry 

or rock is not available, consists of a hollow wrought-iron post 3£ 

inches in outer diameter and 4 feet in length. The bottom is spread 

out to a width of 10 inches in order to give a firm bearing on the earth. 

A bronze or aluminum-bronze cap is riveted over the top of the post 

which is set about 3 feet in the ground. A third style of bench mark 

with abbreviated lettering (B and D, PL I), is used for unimportant 

points. This consists of a special copper nail 1$ inches in length 

driven through a copper washer seven-eighths inch in diameter.. 

The tablets as well as the caps on the iron posts are appropriately 

lettered, and cooperation by States is indicated by the addition of 

the State name (G, PL I).

The numbers stamped on the bench marks described in the following pages represent the elevations to the nearest foot as determined 

by the levelman. These numbers are stamped with three-sixteenthsinch steel dies on the tablets or post caps, to the left of the word 

"FEET." The office adjustment of the notes and the reduction to

mean sea level datum may so change some of the figures that the 

original markings are 1 or 2 feet in error. It is assumed that engineers and others who have occasion to use the bench-mark elevations 

will apply to the Director of the United States Geological Survey, at 

Washington, D. C., for the adjusted values, and will use the markings as identification numbers only.

Datum. All United States Geological Survey elevations are referred to mean sea level, which is the level that the sea would assume 

if the influence of winds and tides were eliminated. This level is not 

the elevation determined from the mean of the highest and the 

lowest tides, nor is it the half sum of the mean of all the high tides 

and the mean of all the low tides, which is called the half-tide level. 

Mean sea level is the average height of the water, all stages of .the tide 

being considered. It is determined from observations made by means 

of tidal gages placed at stations where local conditions, such as long, 

narrow bays, rivers, and like features, will not affect the height of the 

water. To obtain even approximately correct results these observations must extend over at least one lunar month, and if accuracy 

is desired they must extend over several years. At ocean stations 

the half-tide level and the mean sea- level usually differ but little. It 

is assumed that there is no difference between the mean sea level as 

determined from observations in the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of 

Mexico, or the Pacific Ocean.

The connection with tidal stations for bench marks in certain areas 

that lie at some distance from the seacoast is still uncertain, and this 

fact is indicated by the addition of a letter or word to the right of 

the word "DATUM" on tablets or posts. For such areas corrections 

for published results will be made from time to time as the preciselevel lines of the United States Geological Survey or other Government organizations are extended.

Topographic maps. Maps of the following quadrangles wholly or 

partly in California have been published by the United States Geological Survey up to June 10, 1911. They may be obtained (except 

as noted) for 5 cents each or $3 a hundred, on application to the 

Director of the Survey at Washington, D. C.

Etna Mills, Hoopa, Preston, Sawyer Bar, Seiad, and Yreka quadrangles. 

HUMBOLDT AND SISKIYOU COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list are based upon bench marks at 

Montague, Hornbrook, and Hoopa, and upon mean sea level datum 

in agreement with elevations given in Bulletin 342, in which bulletin
PRIMARY LEVELING. ' . 57

are published additional elevations in Yreka quadrangle and vicinity. 

The prism level and yard rods were used on this work, and certain 

large errors in the field computations account for the discrepancies 

between stamped- and published elevations.

The leveling was done by L. F. Biggs in 1907, except for a portion 

of the work in the Hoopa quadrangle done by him in 1906. The 

descriptions of the bench marks established in 1906 are here republished from Bulletin 342 in order to complete the list. The work 

was not in cooperation with the State.

MONO AND TUOLUMNE COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list are based on a bench mark at 

Bridgeport, of which the elevation now adopted is 4 feet greater than 

that given in Bulletin 342. This correction was determined by 

leveling between Hawthorne, Nev., and Mohave, Cal., and allows for 

orthometric error from Mohave and a small correction at Mohave..

The leveling was done by C. M. Weston in 1909 and C. R. Smith in 

1898, without State cooperation.
