Ground water in the Immokalee area, Collier County, Florida

The scope of the investigation involved the drilling of test holes and the detailed inventorying of existing wells in order to define the location, depth, potential yield, and chemical quality of the water contained in the shallow aquifer that might be used for the development of a central water-supply system. The field work and collection of data for the investigation covered the period 1961 through 1963. Much of the data collected for the report on the ground-water resources of Collier County (McCoy, 1962) is incorporated into this report. (Document has 36 pages.)

Diário da Constituinte [gravação de vídeo] : [programa n. 311]

Jornais publicam recado do Palácio do Planalto de que o Presidente da República José Sarney irá considerar inimigo quem não votar no mandato de cinco anos. O Senador Nelson Carneiro (PMDB-RJ) afirma que se alguém usou a fala do Presidente para deturpá-la deve ser punido. O Líder do Governo, Deputado Carlos Sant'anna (PMDB-BA), explica como a declaração foi feita. O Deputado Roberto Freire (PCB-PE), Lider do Partido, declara que vão demonstrar que esse governo é um elemento orgânico de transição tanto quanto a Constituinte e não pode buscar confrontos. Conforme o Deputado Ulysses Guimarães (PMDB-SP), presidente da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC), os constituintes votarão de acordo com sua consciência. Serão votadas a duração do mandato do Presidente e a instalação do parlamentarismo. O Deputado Bernardo Cabral (PMDB-AM) defende a manutenção do texto. Os Deputados Egídio Ferreira Lima (PMDB-PE), Antônio Brito (PMDB-RS) e Paes de Andrade (PMDB-CE) manifestam-se a respeito do sistema de governo proposto. O Deputado Paes de Andrade (PMDB-CE) acredita na implantação do parlamentarismo e no mandato de cinco anos. O Senador Ruy Bacelar (PMDB-BA) defende que se o parlamentarismo for aprovado, que seja instalado no próximo governo. Constituintes mantiveram o SUS de acordo com o Substitutivo Cabral. A Deputada Abigail Feitosa (PMDB-BA) cita vantagens do SUS. A Comissão rejeitou emenda do Deputado Gastone Righi (PTB-SP) que permitia o uso de recursos públicos em investimentos privados na área da saúde. O Deputado Bernardo Cabral (PMDB-AM) apresenta seu voto contra e sensibiliza constituintes para que sigam seu voto. Acordo entre líderes retirou do texto o monopólio do Estado para importar equipamentos. O Deputado Alceni Guerra (PFL-PR) comenta que ficam estabelecidas na Constituição as estruturas de saúde estatal e privada.

Test well exploration in the Myakka River Basin area, Florida

In recent years, difficulties encountered in obtaining ground-water supplies with acceptable chemical characteristics in the Myakka River basin area led to the implementation of a test drilling program. Under this program, well drilling and data collection were executed in such a manner that all water-producing zones of the local aquifers, together with the quality and quantity of the water available, were effectively identified. A step-drilling method was utilized which allowed the collection of formation cuttings, water samples, and water-level data, from isolated zones in the well as drilling proceeded. The step drilling procedure is described. The driller's logs, geophysical logs, and chemical quality of water tables are presented.(Document has 66 pages.)

Ground-water resources data of Charlotte, DeSoto, and Hardee Counties, Florida

Charlotte, De Soto, and Hardee counties are east-southeast of Tampa in west-central peninsular Florida, figure 1. In order to plan the future water-resource development of the area, information about the water resources is needed. To meet this need, the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Peace River Basin Board of the Southwest Florida Water Management District as part of the statewide cooperative program with the Division of Geology, Florida Board of Conservation, began a continuing hydrologic data collection program in July, 1963, as an initial step in the investigation and evaluation of the groundwater resources of Hardee and De Soto counties. A similar hydrologic data program commenced in Charlotte County in July, 1964. Previous work in Hardee and De Soto counties included a one year reconnaissance by the Division of Water Resources and Conservation, Florida Board of Conservation, which concluded in June, 1963, and resulted in a hydrologic report (Woodard, 1964). As an outgrowth of the hydrologic data program, a Map Series report portraying the chemical character of water in the Floridan aquifer in the southern Peace River basin was prepared in 1967 (Kaufman and Dion). The data contained herein constitute the basis for the Map Series report. Additional selected data, including records of wells and chemical analyses,, on the ground-water resources of the three county area are also included and are published to make the data available.

Water resource records of the Econfina Creek Basin area, Florida

The Econfina Creek basin area in northwestern Florida, which includes Bay County, southeastern Washiigton County, and parts of Calhoun, Gulf, and Jackson counties is shown in figure 1. The basin has an abundant supply of ground water and surface water of good quality. This determination is based on a three-year investigation of the water resources of the basin by the U. S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Division of Geology, Florida Board of Conservation, during the period from October 1961 through June 1964. The purpose of this report is to assemble the basic data collected during this investigation for those persons interested in water development or management in this basin. (Document has 131 pages.)
