Excerpt from Final Report, 1894, Vol. 3 The waters of the State have been recognized by the Geological Survey as a part of its mineral resources, and therefore as coming within the scope of its investigations and surveys. The hydrography has been included in the work of the topographic survey, and the surface-waters have been described in the first volume of this series of a final report. The courses of the streams and their drainage basins are shown in detail on the topographic maps of the State. Water as a mechanical agent in its action upon the surface and in relation to important facts in the geologic history has been studied carefully, and particularly in the form of ice in the glacial period. The need of wholesome water for household consumption, as also good water for use in the arts, has prompted many inquiries about the available sources from which steady and abundant supplies of such water may be had, and the large number of these inquiries has demonstrated the necessity of gathering all of the facts relative to the occurrence of waters on the surface and in the earthy and rocky beds under it.
