Water-Year
Summary
instructions
and
information
- Water-Year Summary reports summarize a year of hydrologic data in a printer-friendly format.
- For water years 2014 onward, choose a water year and parameter and an on-demand Water-Year Summary report will be generated.
- For water years 2006 through 2013, choose a water year and an Annual Water Data Report will be provided.
- For water years 2005 and earlier, Annual Water Data Reports may be available in digital format.
- Not all sites have reports available for every water year.

SURFACE-WATER RECORDS
PERIOD OF RECORD - Oct 1994 to Sep 2001 operated as a partial-record station. Oct 2001 to Sep 2004 operated as a continuous-record gaging station. Returned to partial-record station Oct 2005 to current year.
GAGE -
Water Stage Recorder: Datum of gage is 577.62 ft above NAVD of 1988, (Reference Frame NAD_83 (2011) (EPOCH:2010.0000), (GEOID18).
Prior to January 19, 2024, the datum was incorrectly assigned at 573.57 ft above NAVD of 1988.
Prior to January 14, 2020, the datum of gage was 577.305 ft above NGVD of 1929.REMARKS - As the number of streams on which streamflow information is likely to be desired far exceeds the number of continuous-record stream-gaging stations feasible to operate at one time, the USGS collects limited streamflow data at sites other than the continuous-record stream-gaging stations. When limited streamflow data are collected on a systematic basis over a period of years for use in hydrologic analyses, the site at which the data are collected is called a partial-record station. Data collected at these partial-record stations are usable in low-flow or floodflow analyses, depending on the type of data collected. The following table contains the annual maximum discharge for this partial-record station. A stage-discharge relation for the gage is developed from discharge measurements made by direct or indirect methods. The date of the maximum discharge is not always certain but is usually determined by comparison with nearby continuous-record stations, weather records, or local inquiry. Only the maximum discharge for the water year is given. Information on some lower floods may have been obtained but it is not published herein. The years given in the period of record represent water years for which the annual maximum has been determined.
