GAGE - Water-stage recorder. Datum of gage is 604.97 ft above NGVD of 1929; 605.04 ft above NAVD of 1988. Satellite telemeter at station.

REMARKS - Discharges greater than 3,000 ft³s are considered poor. Some records listed in the "Period of Record" for surface water may not be available electronically. No known regulation. Low flow is affected at times by diversions from small dams upstream. No flow at times most years.

WATER-QUALITY RECORDS

PERIOD OF DAILY RECORD - WATER TEMPERATURE: Jan. 2023 to to current year. SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE: Jan. 2023 to to current year. pH: Jan. 2023 to to current year. DISSOLVED OXYGEN: Jan. 2023 to to current year. TURBIDITY: Jan. 2023 to to current year.

INSTRUMENTATION - An In-Situ Aqua Troll 600 water-quality monitor is collecting data from January 2023 to current year. Water-Quality equipment is housed in a separate gaging structure from surface water, upstream of bridge approximately 80 yards. The continuous monitor is deployed in a bank-mounted deployment tube, which is tied to a SatLink 2 DCP.

REMARKS - Interruptions or periods of missing record may be due to instrument failure or data corrections exceeding allowable criteria, which were deleted. Minimum and maximum extremes may have occurred during period of missing record. Some records listed in the Period of Record may not be available electronically.
