| Authors:
Enrico Quarantelli; OHIO STATE UNIV RESEARCH FOUNDATION COLUMBUS
|
 | In an earlier report on evacuation, it was recommended that a special examination be made of the sheltering and housing aspects of disasters. Following that recommendation, The Disaster Research Center (DRC) reviewed the literature and undertook some analyses of previously unanalyzed data on that subject. In the report, we note that the literature is scanty and unsystematic, as well as marked by considerable conceptual confusion between sheltering and housing. Part ... |

| Authors:
L. H. Tornes; GEOLOGICAL SURVEY ST PAUL MN WATER RESOURCES DIV
|
| Samples were collected for 1 year from East Creek, Chaska Creek, and Courthouse Lake in Chaska, Minnesota, to determine the water quality before implementation of a flood-control project proposed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The creeks had similar water-quality characteristics. Data indicate that ground water may be the primary source of dissolved solids, sulfate, chloride, and chromium in the creeks. The pesticides alachlor, atrazine, simazine, and 2,4-D were ... |
