This gaging station is maintained in cooperation with:
- The Indiana Department of Transportation
Notice to Users: Beginning April 11, 2013 the gage height provided
by the USGS on this webpage will display 2.00 ft. higher than those
shown by the National Weather Service. These data displayed by the USGS
and NWS are from the same instrumentation but due the need for a new
gage location, a datum change was also required. Significant changes to
the stream channel from a dam removal in November of 2012 required the
removal of the existing streamgage On April 11, 2013, the gage was
moved to a new location about 380 feet downstream from its previous
location. Collecting gage-height data at the new location required the
station datum to be changed to 730.65 feet. The station datum at the
previous location was 732.65 feet. Please keep in mind that the gage
height plus the station datum equals the elevation (NGVD29) of the
water surface at the gaging station location. This gage has had a
history of location changes and datum changes. From Oct. 1929 to July
23, 1953 the gage was located about 2.0 miles upstream of the current
location at a datum of 738.00 ft. From July 24, 1953 to Jan. 14, 2002
the gage was located about 1.85 miles upstream of the current location
at a datum of 738.00 ft.
This station managed by the Indiana Water Science Center Office.
