LOCATION - Lat 33°39'04", long 90°12'38" referenced to North American Datum of 1983, in SE 1/4 SE 1/4 sec.29, T.21 N., R.1 E., Leflore County, MS, Hydrologic Unit 08030202, downstream of county (Sunny Side) road left bridge abutment at Money, about 9 miles north of Greenwood, 193 miles above confluence at Vicksburg.
REVISIONS HISTORY -
REVISION STATEMENT:
GW Elevation NAVD88 and GW Temperature were revised, with continuous data deleted from 2022-03-10 (00:00) to 2022-04-22 (11:45).
Evidence of equipment malfunction included: differences between historical trend and trend following sensor replacement, interaction with SW site, and the more obvious equipment malfunction patterns between 2022-04-22 and 2022-05-10 (which were deleted in real time).
Temperature was revised from 2022-02-10 (00:00) to 2023-12-05 (00:00) and deletion continued to the time of sensor replacement on 2024-03-27. For revised period, data did not follow historical seasonal trends or those at comparison site 119M0072 QUITMAN (Allen). Divergence from reference readings was evident from early 2023. Before sensor replacement in 2024, malfunction was evident in GW Level data in the same sensor.
GROUNDWATER RECORDS
WELL CHARACTERISTICS - Depth 28.5 ft. Upper casing diameter undefined; top of first opening undefined, bottom of last opening undefined. Well was drilled with a 2-inch well PVC casing to a depth of 28.5 feet with a 1-foot screen at 28.25 feet. Top of well casing was set at 2.35 feet above land surface, re-fitted with a GW sensor Y-insert at 2.90 feet (at lip) above land surface on Aug 05, 2014.
DATUM - Land-surface datum is 129.45 ft above North American Vertical Datum of 1988. Measuring point: top of 2-inch PVC casing, 2.35 ft above land-surface datum, Apr. 15, 2014 to Aug. 17, 2021; top of Y-fitting bushing set directly on top of 2-inch PVC-casing, 2.9 ft above land-surface datum, Apr. 15, 2014 to present.
PERIOD OF RECORD - Water-level measurement, April 15, 2014: Continuous water-level record, Aug 05, 2015 to current
GAGE - Water-level recorder. Land surface altitude at well is assumed at 129.45 feet above NAVD. Recorder is located near the left downstream bridge abutment. A buried sensor line/conduit connects the gauge to the well in the downstream left flood plain.
COOPERATION - U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), Vicksburg District
PERIOD OF DAILY RECORD - Aug 06, 2014 to current.
