awkward reference to "the Survey"
[edit]In the edit of 22:12, 13 July 2020, I suspect that the wording referring to the U.S. Geological Survey as "the Survey" will feel unnatural to "American" readers. I am not proffering this as a universal rule, i.e. in the proper context, we can refer to the "Library of Congress" as "the Library" and for internal documents, the "National Bureau of Standards" might have called itself "the Bureau". However, referring to the "National Technical Information Service" as "the Service" probably doesn't fly. I suspect that referring to it as "NTIS" would be considered more "natural", and similarly, "USGS" would be the preferred form. Fabrickator (talk) 00:20, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
