Indian Creek

The earliest oil marketed in the United States came from springs at Oil Creek, Pennsylvania, and near Cuba, New York. It was used for medicinal purposes and was an article of trade among the Seneca Indians. At that time, the term Seneca Oil appfied to all oil obtained from the earth. The first oil well was drilled in 1859 in Pennsylvania to a depth of 21.2 m for Seneca Oil Co. It produced 280 t (2000 bbl) in that year. This was the beginning of cmde oil production. [Pg.364]

Triana, with a population of 600, is located at the confluence of Indian Creek and the Tennessee River. From 1947 until 1971 DDT was manufactured in a plant 10 kilometers from Triana. Several thousand tons of DDT industrial waste accumulated in the sediments of a tributary of Indian Creek. Locally caught fish have had total DDT residual levels up to 100 times the tolerance of 5 parts per million (ppm) set by the Food and Drug Administration. The high levels of DDT residues in the 12 persons surveyed were suspected of resulting from their consuming fish which had accumulated DDT from sediments. The task at hand was to measure residents exposure to DDT and relate it, if possible, to health effects in the population—an example of a cross-sectional study. [Pg.29]

In the cotton field just beyond Noonday Creek, there was an area where I, alone or with my brother Dick, found Indian arrowheads, other obsidian tools, pestles and mortars, and broken pieces of pottery. After a farmer had plowed the field in the spring, rains washed the top soil and exposed these relics. I collected and classified these findings into cardboard boxes that eventually filled up a large wooden box. [Pg.6]

Havasu Canyon in Arizona—home to the Havasupai Indian Tribe— has beautiful waterfalls in the middle of the Arizona desert. The same reactions that form stalactites and stalagmites are responsible for the travertine formations (a form of calcium carbonate) coating the cliffs under the falls that contribute to the beauty of the falls. Havasu Creek has a high lime content that replenishes the travertine—the lime gives the water a greenish tinge. Because Havasu Creek is the lifeblood of the... [Pg.125]

There were 17 well-defined cases of typhoid fever, with one death, and 83 cases of gastro-enteritis (diarrhoea) traced directly to eating Rockaway oysters from Jamaica Bay, floated at Indian Creek, near Canarsie, Long Island, N. Y. [Pg.280]

There are other such examples. Many unsaturated soils are known to convert to N2(g> via NO3 (i.e., nitrification then denitrification). They achieve this because there are local oxic and anoxic environments in the soil waters that, respectively, allow nitrification and denitrification to proceed. In stratified lakes, nitrification may occur in the oxygenated epilimnion (upper layer) and denitrification in the hypolimnion (bottom water) and in the sediment pore water where dissolved oxygen concentrations fall to zero. The nitrification and denitrification process is important in preserving the fishery in Indian Creek Reservoir in the Sierra Nevada mountains. This reservoir is fed by the tertiary effluent from the City of South Lake Tahoe sewage treatment plant. The effluent has at times contained 15 to 20 mg NH4 N/liter. Levels of ammonia of this magnitude are toxic to fish, yet in the reservoir there is a thriving fishery. This is achieved because the top waters of the lake nitrify the ammonia to nitrate and this is reduced to N2(g) by the anoxic bottom waters. The summer concentrations of nitrogen species of the reservoir are approximately 4 mg NOa -N/Iiter and 4 mg NH4-N/liter. [Pg.410]
