    Notes: Thirty-three wells and two springs yielding high chloride water from granitic rocks define a northwesttrending lineament, which extends for 60 miles (100 km) along the western Sierra Nevada foothills of Fresno and Madera Counties. Geochemical evidence indicates that many of the constituents in this water are marine connate in origin. However, the connate water has been strongly diluted with meteoric water. The connate water is believed to have been derived from Paleozoic and early Mesozoic marine clastic rocks (now metamorphosed) in the Sierra Nevada. The lineament marks the location where marine connate water has migrated upward from these rocks along an eastward-dipping fault zone. A capping of granitic rocks has enhanced the persistence of this connate water for millions of years. The lineament may be structurally related to the Oakhurst-Fine Gold fault zone, which it parallels for approximately 15 miles (25 km). There is a remarkable correlation in the Oakhurst area between wells yielding high-chloride water and fracture trends determined from aerial photographs. High chloride ground water is present only in topographically low areas, where little flushing by meteoric water has been possible.

    Notes: In recent years, benefit-cost analysis has been increasingly applied to large societal decision problems (such as developing a fast breeder energy economy) which involve both risks to society and analysis of very long-term consequences possibly extending over many human generations. This paper examines the philosophical underpinnings of the technique which is a special case of utilitarianism, and compares implications of the technique to those arising from alternative ethical systems in analyzing questions of public safety. Ethical systems which emphasize the good of the whole, such as utilitarianism, are shown to differ sharply in decision outcomes from those which emphasize the rights of the individual, such as libertarianism. It is suggested that benefit-cost analysis should be broadened to include alternative weightings of benefits and costs consistent with a variety of ethical views.

    Notes: This paper estimates the number of workers in the United States who were occupationally exposed to asbestos during and after World War II and assesses the impact of this exposure on overall cancer mortality. The results suggest that over half of the estimated 7–8 million potentially exposed workers employed between 1940 and 1970 may still be alive and at risk of dying from some form of asbestos-related cancer. While the maximum number of excess cancer deaths associated with this occupational exposure is likely to occur sometime in this decade, such deaths will continue to be seen for many years thereafter. At their peak, these deaths may account for an estimated 3% of the annual cancer death toll, with an associated range of 1.4–4.4%.

    Notes: A comparison of the costs and benefits of 57 lifesaving programs reveals striking disparities across agencies and programs in cost/life saved and even greater disparities in cost/life-year saved. Within a broad range the monetary value assigned to the benefits of averting a death usually does not alter the policy implications of the analyses. The findings suggest that despite the substantial disagreements and uncertainties in the theory and practice of valuing lives, careful quantitative analysis can be helpful in setting health, safety, and environmental priorities.

    Notes: Most underground coal mines in Illinois are relatively dry despite their location in saturated rock lying hundreds of meters below the water table. This is probably due to the low permeabilities of the rock units associated with the coal seams. Little is known about how mines affect the groundwater system, so it is difficult to predict where a mine is likely to encounter an influx of ground water.To obtain information on the hydrogeological character of the roof rocks, an array of piezometers was installed in roof-bolt holes at two locations within an underground coal mine in central Illinois. Pressure vs. time measurements were obtained from piezometer arrays located in areas of the mine ranging from dry to wet conditions. Data collected from the piezometers indicate that water drainage from a saturated sandstone above the coal is largely controlled by local structural and stratigraphic features, and these features determine the distribution of wet and dry areas in the mine. Hydraulic conductivities of the sandstone were determined in the laboratory and in situ from drainage profiles and from tests of instantaneous head changes. Results of these tests indicated that dewatering in front of mining would not be successful in this mine.

    Notes: The Piper (1953) trilinear diagram has been widely used to graphically represent the dissolved constituents of natural waters and to test for apparent mixtures of waters from different sources. Because of the time required to plot points and calculate the proportional values of mixing, this treatment of data was often quite tedious, particularly in studies involving large numbers of chemical analyses. The PIPER program was written in BASIC to be run on a Hewlett-Packard desktop computer with an X-Y plotter. Data input is in ppm units. The program plots points in all three fields of the trilinear diagram, draws at each point within the central diamond field a circle with a radius correspondent to the concentrations expressed in meq/1, checks for points that fall on a straight line (or within a predetermined tolerance of a straight line) representing postulated mixtures with two end members, and/or within a triangle representing mixtures of three end members. Finally, the program does a numerical analysis of the mixing ratios of the constituents for postulated mixing systems according to the methodology as presented by Piper (1953).
