AUTHORIZATION AND SCOPE OF WORK

This volume is one of a series of 14 reports presenting records of 

measurements of flow made on streams in the United States during 

the year ending September 30, 1930.

The data presented in these reports were collected by the United 

States Geological Survey under the following authority contained in 

the organic law (20 Stat. L., p. 394):

Provided, That this officer [the directo^j shall have the direction of th? Geological 

Survey and the classification of public lands and examination of tin geological 

structure, mineral resources, and products of the national domain.

The work was begun in 1888 in connection with special studies 

relating to irrigation. Since the fiscal year ending June 30, 1895, 

successive appropriation bills passed by Congress have carried the 

folio wing items:

For gaging the streams and determining the water supply of the Urited States, 

and for the investigation of underground currents and artesian wells, and for the 

preparation of reports upon the best methods of utilizing the water resources.

In the execution of the work many private and State organizations 

have cooperated, either by furnishing data or by assisting in collecting 

data. Acknowledgments for cooperation of the first kind ai^ made in 

connection with the description of each station affected; cooperation 

of the second kind is acknowledged on page 10.

Measurements of stream flow have been made at about 6,070 points 

in the United States and also at many points in Alaska and the 

Hawaiian Islands. In July, 1930, 2,430 gaging stations vere being 

maintained by the Geological Survey and the cooperating organizations. Many miscellaneous discharge measurements were made at
2 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1930, PART 2

other points. In connection with this work data wer3 also collected 

in regard to precipitation, evaporation, storage reservoirs, river profiles, and water power in many sections of the country and will be 

made available in water-supply papers from time to time.

DEFINITION OF TERMS

The volume of water flowing in a stream. the "run-off" or "discharge" is expressed in various terms, each of which has become 

associated with a certain class of work. These terms may be divided 

into two groups (1) those that represent a rate of flow, as second-feet, 

gallons per minute, miner's inches, and discharge in second-feet per 

square mile, and (2) those that represent the actual quantity of water, 

as run-off in inches, acre-feet, and millions of cubic feet. The principal terms used in this series of reports are second-feet, second-feet per 

square mile, run-off in inches, and acre-feet. They may be defined 

as follows:

"Second-feet" is an abbreviation for "cubic feet p«.r second." A 

second-foot is the rate of discharge of water flowing in a channel of 

rectangular cross section 1 foot wide and 1 foot deep at an average 

velocity of 1 foot per second. It is generally used as a fundamental 

unit from which others are computed.

"Second-feet per square mile" is the average number of cubic feet 

of water flowing per second from each square mile of area drained on 

the assumption that the run-off is distributed uniformly both as 

regards time and area.

"Run-off in inches" is the depth to which an area would be covered 

if all the water flowing from it in a given period were uniformly distributed on the surface. It is used for comparing run-off with rainfall, 

which is usually expressed in inches.

An "acre-foot," equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet, is the quantity 

required to cover an acre to the depth of 1 foot. Tl e term is commonly used in connection with storage for irrigation.

The following terms not in common use are here defined:

"Stage-discharge relation," an abbreviation for the term "relation 

of gage height to discharge."

"Control," a term used to designate the natural section or stretch 

of the channel or artificial structure below the gage which determines 

the stage-discharge relation at the gage.

EXPLANATION OF DATA

The data presented in this report cover the year beginning October 

1, 1929, and ending September 30, 1930. At the beginning of January 

in most parts of the United States much of the prec;pitation in the 

preceding three months is stored in the form of sncw or ice, or in 

ponds, lakes, and swamps, or as underground water, and this stored
EXPLANATION OF DATA 6

water passes off in the streams during the spring break-up. At the 

end of September, on the other hand, the onty stored water available 

for run-off is possibly a small quantity in the ground; therefore the 

run-off for the year beginning October 1 is practically all derived from 

precipitation within that year.

The base data collected at gaging stations consist of records of 

stage, measurements of discharge, and general information used to

FIGURE 1. Typical river-measurement station showing concrete well and house for water-stage recorder

and staff gages, cable, and car

supplement the gage heights and discharge measurements in determining the daily flow. The records of stage are obtained either 

from direct readings on a staff or chain gage, or from a waterstage recorder that gives a continuous record of the fluctuations. 

Measurements of discharge are made with a current meter by the 

general methods outlined in standard textbooks on the measurement of river discharge. A typical gaging station, equipped with 

water-stage recorder and measuring cable and car, is shown in Figure 1.
4 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1930, PART 2

From the discharge measurements, rating tables are prepared that 

give the discharge for any stage. The application of the daily gage 

height to these rating tables gives the daily discharge from which the 

monthly and yearly mean discharge is determined.

The data presented for each gaging station in the area covered by 

this report comprise a description of the station, a table showing the 

daily discharge of the stream, and a table of monthly and yearly discharge and run-off.

The description of the station gives, in addition to statements 

regarding location and type of gage, information as to diversions that 

decrease the flow at the gage, artificial regulation, maximum and 

minimum recorded discharge, and the accuracy of the records. The 

maximum discharge given under "Extremes" does not represent the 

crest discharge unless a water-stage recorder was in operation or a 

nonrecording gage was read at the time of the crest.

The table of daily discharge gives, in general, the discharge in 

second-feet corresponding to the daily gage height, which may be a 

once daily reading or the mean of twice daily readings of a nonrecording gage, or the mean daily gage height obtained from a water-stage 

recorder graph.

At stations on streams subject to sudden or rapid diurnal fluctuation the discharge obtained from the rating table and the mean 

daily gage height may not be the true mean discharge for the day. 

If such stations are equipped with water-stage recorders the mean 

daily discharge may be obtained by averaging the discharge at regular 

intervals during the day or by using the discharge integrator, an 

instrument for obtaining mean daily discharge from a continuous 

gage-height graph and containing as an essential element the rating 

curve of the station.

In the table of monthly discharge the column headed "Maximum" 

gives the maximum daily discharge and not the discharge when the 

water surface was at crest height. Likewise, in the column headed 

"Minimum" the quantity given is the minimum daily discharge. 

The column headed "Mean" is the average flow in cubic feet per 

second during the month. On this average flow are based computations recorded in the remaining columns, which are defined on page 2.

ACCURACY OF FIELD DATA AND COMPUTED RESULTS

The accuracy of stream-flow data depends primarily (1) on the 

permanency of the stage-discharge relation and (2) on the accuracy 

of observation of stage, measurements of flow, and interpretation of 

records.

The station description gives a statement in regard to the general 

accuracy of the records. "Excellent" indicates that records are 

accurate within 5 per cent; "good," within 10 per cent; "fair," 

within 15 per cent; and "poor," 20 per cent or more.
PUBLICATIONS O

The monthly means for any station may represent with hi^h accuracy the quantity of water flowing past the gage, but the figures 

showing discharge per square mile and run-off in inches may b^ subject 

to gross errors caused by the inclusion of large noncontributing 

districts in the measured drainage area, by lack of information concerning water diverted for irrigation or other use, or by inability to 

interpret the effect of artificial regulation of the flow of Ihe river 

above the station. "Second-feet per square mile" and "ir'n-off in 

inches" are therefore not computed if such errors appear probable. 

The computations are also omitted for stations on streams draining 

areas in which the annual rainfall is less than 20 inches.

The table of monthly discharge gives a general idea of the flow 

at the station. The table of daily discharge allows more detailed 

studies of the variation in flow. It should be borne in mind, however, 

that the observations in each succeeding year may be expected to 

throw new light on data previously published.

Many gaging stations on streams in the irrigated area'* of the 

United States are situated above most of the diversions from those 

streams, and the discharge recorded does not show the wate* supply 

available for further development, as prior appropriations b^low the 

stations must first be satisfied.

PUBLICATIONS

Investigation of water resources by the United States Geological 

Survey has consisted in large part of measurements of the volume of 

flow of streams and studies of the conditions affecting that flow, but 

it has comprised also investigation of such closely allied subjects as 

irrigation, water storage, water powers, underground waters, and 

quality of waters. Most of the results of these investigations have 

been published in the series of water-supply papers, but some have 

appeared in the bulletins, professional papers, monographs, and annual 

reports.

The results of stream-flow measurements are now published annually in 12 parts, each part covering an area whose boundaries coincide 

with natural drainage features as indicated below:

Part 1. North Atlantic slope basins (St. John River to York River).

2. South Atlantic slope and eastern Gulf of Mexico basins (Jamef River to 

	the Mississippi).

3. Ohio River Basin.

4. St. Lawrence River Basin.

5. Hudson Bay and upper Misissippi River Basins.

6. Missouri River Basin.

7. Lower Mississippi River Basin.

8. Western Gulf of Mexico basins.

9. Colorado River Basin.

10. The Great Basin.

11. Pacific slope basins in California.
6 SUKFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1930, PART 2

12. North Pacific slope drainage basins, in three parts:

A, Pacific slope basins in Washington and upper Columbia River

Basin.

The records at most of the stations discussed in these reports 

extend over a series of years. Miscellaneous measurements at many 

points other than regular gaging stations have been made each year 

and are published under "Miscellaneous discharge measurements" at 

the end of each report, in the same relative order as the regular gaging 

stations. An index of the reports containing records obtained prior to 

1904 has been published in Water-Supply Paper 119.
6 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1930, PART 2

The following table gives, by years and drainage basins, the numbers of the papers on surface-water supply published from 1899 to 

1930. The data^ for any particular station will, as a rule, be found 

in the reports covering the years during which the station was maintained. For example, data for 1910 to 1920 for any station in the area 

covered by Part 3 are published in Water-Supply Papers 283, 303, 

323, 353, 383, 403, 433, 453, 473, and 503, which contrin records for 

the Ohio River Basin for those years.

NOTE. Tables of monthly discharge, 1896-1901 and 1905-1923, are revised records based upon original 

data supplemented by recent discharge measurements defining rating curve at high stages, and supersede
