PERIOD OF RECORD.--Occasional miscellaneous discharge
measurements, water years 1954, 1973. Continuous-record discharge
station, May 1998 to current year.
REVISED RECORDS.--WDR NJ-03-1: 1998 (M), 2003. WDR NJ-04-1: 2003

GAGE.--Water-stage, velocity, and precipitation recorder with
telemetry and crest-stage gage. Datum of gage is 34.18 ft above NAVD of
1988.
REMARKS.--Records poor. Water diverted for water supply upstream
of gage. Stage-discharge relationship can be affected by variable-stage
backwater. Velocity recorder and stage-area relationship are used to
compute discharge for variable-stage backwater conditions at this
site.
EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD.--Maximum discharge, 1,800
ft
3/s, estimated, Aug 28, 2011, gage height, 9.87 ft;
minimum discharge, 15 ft

Rain gage data are available from this location at this link.
The water temperature data for this station
are temporary and will only be displayed for 120 days. Although the
instrumentation is calibrated at least once/year, the temporary
classification means that documented routine inspections and other
quality assurance measures are not performed that would make the data
acceptable for archival, retrieval, or future use in general scientific
or interpretive studies.
