Online Publications of the Oregon District
Publications on this page are grouped by major hydrologic discipline (water quality, surface water, and ground water; publications related to the work of the USGS but not clearly in any of those categories can be found in the category "other"). An alternate page containing the same publications grouped by major drainage basin is also available.
Printed and bound versions of most Oregon District
publications are available by mail. (Ordering

the resolution had to be low in order to keep the file size from being
even larger, the quality is not good. We apologize.
