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.
USGS Water-Year Summary 2024
264514080550700 INDUSTRIAL CANAL AT CLEWISTON, FL
LOCATION - Lat 26°45'14", long 80°55'07" referenced to North American Datum of 1927, in NW 1/4 sec.14, T.43 S., R.34 E., Hendry County, FL, Hydrologic Unit 03090202, on concrete wall inside lock chamber of structure S-310 (HGS-2) in Okeechobee Waterway, and 0.8 mi north of U.S. Highway 27 near Clewiston.
DRAINAGE AREA - Indeterminate.
SURFACE-WATER RECORDS
PERIOD OF RECORD - August 24, 1976 to current year.
GAGE - Satellite data collection platform (Design Analysis Corp. model 522 Jr.) with water-stage shaft encoder and Acoustic Doppler velocity meter. Datum of gage is National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929. Prior to October 1979, at datum 0.24 ft lower. Prior to April 19, 2001, acoustic velocity meter at same site and datum. Prior to October 19, 1992, water-stage recorder and electromagnetic velocity meter at site. Prior to October 1982, water-stage recorder 0.4 mi downstream of S-310 (HGS-2) on south side of U.S. Highway 27 bridge.
August 1976 to September 1979, deflection velocity meter recorder on south side of U.S. Highway 27 bridge.
REMARKS - Above a velocity of 0.60 the record is fair, below that it is good. Discharge computed from relations between stage vs. area and index velocity vs. mean channel velocity. Flow regulated by hurricane gate at Lake Okeechobee (negative figures indicate reverse flow towards Lake Okeechobee). Prior to October 19, 1992, electromagnetic velocity meter at site. Gage height and discharge for the 2005 water year that was unavailable at the time of WDR FL-05-2A publication was published in the 2006 WDR FL-06-2A report.
EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD - Maximum gage height, 19.17 ft Mar. 7, 1983; minimum, 8.12 ft June 2, 2007.
