The Geological Survey has an elaborate stream monitoring 
network which can provide valuable pollution data. In addition, 
their studies of unsteady flows and salinity intrusion, thermal 
characteristics and coastal sedimentation provide valuable back- 
ground data. The Survey also supervises mining, oil, and gas 
leases on the Outer Continental Shelf.
