PERIOD OF RECORD.--October 1940 to September 1942, October 1944 to current year.
REVISIONS HISTORY.--WSP 2103: Drainage area. WDR NY-71-1: 1969 (M).
GAGE.--Water-stage recorder, concrete control, and crest-stage gage. Datum of gage is 1,185.68 ft above NGVD of 1929 and 1,185.09 ft above NAVD of 1988.

EXTREMES OUTSIDE PERIOD OF RECORD.--Flood of July 8, 1935, reached a stage of 16.61 ft, from floodmarks, different datum, discharge, 21,000 ft³/s, on basis of slope-area measurement of peak flow.
EXTREMES FOR PERIOD PRIOR TO REGULATION.--Maximum discharge, prior to construction of Almond Lake in 1949, 9,430 ft³/s, May 17, 1945, gage height, 5.14 ft, from rating curve extended above 3,400 ft³/s; maximum gage height, 6.65 ft, June 3, 1947; minimum discharge, 3.4 ft³/s, Oct. 2, 1941.
