Class II. Literature concerning geology of Ohio: 

 The work of the Federal Survey in Ohio has consisted 

 largely in topographic mapping and the area is practically 

 completed. There are, however, reports on the glacial geology, 

 the underground waters of the southwestern part of the State, 

 recent destructive floods in the Ohio Valley, oil and gas geology 

 of certain quadrangles in the eastern part of the State and other 

 reports that will be listed. The Geological Survey of Ohio 

 ranks among the most progressive of State Surveys and its 

 publications include many valuable reports, covering nearly all 

 phases of geology in the State. One of the most useful of these 

 reports is a bibliography of Ohio geology.
