Monitoring location 01480015 is associated with a Stream in New Castle County, Delaware. Current conditions of Discharge, Gage height, and Stream water level elevation above NAVD 1988 are available. Water data back to 1988 are available online.
LOCATION.-- On right bank at downstream side of westbound lane of bridge on State Highway 4, near Stanton, and 0.9 mi upstream from mouth.
PERIOD OF RECORD.-- October 1988 to current year.
GAGE.-- Water-stage recorder and crest-stage gage. Datum of gage is -1.15 ft above North American Vertical Datum of 1988 and 0.00 ft above National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929.
REMARKS.-- Records adjusted for inflow from June 1994 to September 2011. Low flows augmented at times by inflow from Hoopes Reservoir located 5.7 mi upstream from gage on unnamed tributary to Red Clay Creek, capacity 2,000,000,000 gal. Water from Brandywine Creek is pumped into Hoopes Reservoir and is then released into Red Clay Creek during periods of low flow. Water from Red Clay Creek is used for municipal supply.
