SURFACE WATER SUPPLY OF NORTH ATLANTIC SLOPE BASINS, 1935

SCOPE OF WORK

This volume is one of a series of 14 reports presenting results of measurements of 

flow made on streams in the United States during the year ending September 30, 1935. The 

work was begun in 1888 in connection with special studies relating to irrigation. In 

the execution of the work, measurements of stream flow have been made at about 7,020 

points In the United States and also at many points in Alaska and the Hawaiian Islands. 

In July 1935, 3,020 gaging stations were being maintained by the Geological Survey and 

the cooperating organisations. Many miscellaneous discharge measurements were made at 

other points.

DEFINITION OF TERMS

The units in which stream-flow data are presented in this report and other terms used 

herein are defined as follows:

"Second-feet" is an abbreviation for "cubic feet per second." A second-feot is the 

rate of discharge of water flowing in a channel when the cross-sectional area is 1 square 

foot and the average velocity is 1 foot per second.

"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 coveced 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. The term is commonly used in connection with storage for 

irrigation.

"Second-foot-day" is the volume of water represented by a flow of 1 second-foot for 

24 hours.

"Stage-discharge relation" is an abbreviation for the term "relation of gage height to 

discharge."

"Control" is a term used to designate the natural section or reach of the channel or 

artificial structure below the gage which determines the stage-discharge relation at the

EXPLANATION OF DATA

The base data collected at gaging stations consist of records of stage, measurements 

of discharge, and general Information used to supplement the gage heights and discharge 

measurements in determining the daily flow. The records of stage are obtained either 

from direct readings on a nonrecording gage or from a water-stage 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. Typical gaging stations, equipped with water-stage recorder and measuring 

cable and car, are shown on plate 1.

Rating tables giving the discharge for any stage are prepared from the discharge 

measurements. The application or the daily gage height to these rating tables gives the 

daily discharge from which the monthly and yearly mean discharge is computed.

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

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. Skeleton rating tables are published except for those stations whose daily discharge for the greater part of the year 

was determined by shifting-control method or by use of slope or other special methods.

The description of the station gives information in regard to the location and type of 

gage, diversions that decrease the flow at the gage, artificial regulation from pondage 

or storage, and the accuracy of the records. Under "Average discharge" is given the 

average discharge for the number of years indicated. It is given only for stations for 

which there are 10 or more complete years of record. Information under "Extremes" gives 

the maximum discharge and gage height; the minimum discharge if there is little or no 

regulation; the minimum daily discharge if there is extensive regulation, and also the 

minimum discharge if useful; and the minimum gage height except when it is of no importance. Unless otherwise qualified, the maximum discharge corresponds to the crest 

stage obtained by use of a water-stage recorder or a nonrecording gage read at the time 

of the crest. Likewise the minimum represents the lowest discharge unless otherwise 

qualified.

 The table of daily discharge gives, for stations equipped with nonrecording gages, 

the discharge in second-feet corresponding to once-daily or the mean of twice-daily readings of the gage. FOP stations equipped with water-stage recorders the table gives the 

discharge corresponding to the mean daily gage height except for stations on streams subject to sudden or rapid fluctuation. For stations subject to such fluctuation the mean 

daily gage height may not indicate the true mean daily discharge, which must be obtained 

by averaging the discharge for intervals of the day or by using the discharge integrator, 

an instrument for obtaining the 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 "Second-foot-days" gives the sum 

for each month of the discharge given in the table of aaily 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.

ACCURACY OF FIELD DATA AND COMPUTED RESULTS

The accuracy of stream-flow data depends primarily (1) on the permanency of the stagedischarge 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, in general, the daily records are accurate within 

5 percent; "good", within 10 percent; "fair", within 15 percent; and "poor", within 20 

percent or more.

The monthly means for any station may represent with high accuracy the quantity of 

water flowing past the gage, but the figures showing discharge per square mile and depth 

In Inches may be subject to gross errors caused by the Inclusion of large noneontributIng 

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 the river above the station. "Second-feet per square mile" and 

"run-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.

Many gaging stations on streams In the Irrigated areas of the United States are situated above most of the diversions from those streams, and the discharge recorded, does not 

show the water supply available for further development, as prior appropriations below 

the station must first be satisfied.

The table of monthly discharge gives a general Idea of the flow at the station. The 

table of dally 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, and that greater degrees of refinement In computations and records may be warranted with Increased data and use of Improved equipment.

In order to permit greater refinement in analysis and comparison of records for adjacent stations, the following changes In computation procedure were followed In preparing 

some of the records published in the series of reports for 1934 and all the records for 

1935: . (a) Mean monthly discharge above 1,000 second-feet and monthly run-off above 

10,000 acre-feet are expressed to four significant figures Instead of three significant 

figures, as formerly; (b) monthly run-off in acre-feet Is computed from the total secondfoot-days for the month and not from the mean discharge for the month; (c) drainage areas 

above 1,000 square miles, if measured on topographic naps, or if otherwise warranted, 

are expressed to four significant figures Instead of three as formerly.

Note.- The reports which contain records after 1901 are given in the table on page 14.

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 tiie same relative order as the regular gaging stations. An index of 

the reports containing records obtained prior to 1904 has been publisher! in Water-Supply 

Paper 119.

The following table gives, by years and drainage basins, the numbers of the papers on 

surface-water supply published from 1899 to 1935. The data for any particular station 

will, in general, be found in the reports covering the years during which the station was 

maintained. For example, data from 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 contain records for the Ohio River Basin for those years. Special papers 

containing compilation of records previously published and also records not contained in 

the annual series of water-supply papers have been published for some States and drainage 

basins. For example, stream-flow records for the New Kanawha River Basin in part 3 trow 

1895 to 1920 are contained in Water-Supply Paper 536.

KENWEBEC RIVER BASIN 

Kennebec River at Watervllle, Maine

41

Location.- Staff pages and water-stage recorder, lat. 44°33'45", long. 69°37'10", at 

dam and mill of Holllngsworth & Whitney Co. at Waterville, Kennebec County, 2 miles 

above Sebasticook River and 3i miles.above Messalonskee Stream.

Drainage area.- 4,£70 square miles.

Records available.- March 1892 to September 1935.

Average discharge. 42 years (1893-1935), 7,065 second-feet.

Remarks.- Discharge computed from flow over dam and through logway and water wheels of 

mill. Numerous power plants and much storage above station. Comparison of monthly 

averages with similar averages of gaging stations above Waterville indicates that 

figures as published below are small and that monthly totals should be increased 

1 to 19 percent and yearly average 8.9 percent to equal flow as indicated by records 

from paging stations above. Part of monthly discharge table corrected for effect of 

storage. Records furnished by Hollingsworth & Whitney Co.

Discharge, in second-feet, water year October 1934 to September 1935

 Computed on basis of revised drainage area (2,854 square miles).
MERRIMA.CK RIVER BASIN 67

Merrlmack River below Concord River, at Lowell, Mass.

Location.- Water-stage recorder Installed Mar. 7, 1934, lat. 42°38'50", long. 71°18'5",

 at Lowell, Middlesex County, 1,100 feet below mouth of Concord River. Gage-height 

record June 1, 1923, to Mar. 6, 1934, May 30, 1934, to Jan. 6, 1935, July 4 to Aug. 

25, 1935, determined from water-stage recorder at Boott Mills, 700 feet above mouth 

of Concord River; control Is same as for gage below Concord River and gage height Is 

index of flow, including Concord River. Zero of both gages Is 5.18 feet above mean 

sea level.

Drainage area.- Total above gage, 4,635 square miles; net area exclusive of diverted

 parts of Nashua and Sudbury Rivers and Lake Cochltuate Basins, 4,424 square miles.

Records available.- June 1923 to September 1935. Comparable records at Lawrence 

October 1879 to September 1934.

Average discharge.- 12 years, 6,780 second-feet, corrected for wastage Into Merrlmack.

Extremes.- Maximum discharge during water year 1934-35,-49,500 second-feet Jan. 11 (gage

 height, 52.40 feet); minimum mean dally discharge, 600 second-feet Sept. 1.

1923-35: Maximum discharge, 76,800 second-feet (revised) Nov. 5, 1927 (gage height, 

56.5 feet, present gage); minimum mean dally discharge, 199 second-feet Sept. 23, 1923.

Maximum stage known 60.6 feet present gage, Apr. 23, 1852 (discharge 108,000 secondfeet, revised).

Remarks.- Records excellent except those below 5,000 second-feet, which are good. Dls-

 charge Includes water wasted from diversions of Metropolitan Water Supply District of 

Boston and by City of Worcester in South Branch of Nashua River, Sudbury River, and 

Lake Cochltuate Basins. Wasted water Is deducted from observed mean monthly flow to 

give net discharge from net drainage area. Flow partly regulated by operation of 

power plants and storage In Lake Wlnnepesaukee and other reservoirs. Gagei-helght for 

periods when Boott Mills gage was used were determined from records furnished by 

Proprietors of Locks and Canals.

Cornparlson with records for station at Lawrence from June 1923 to September 1934 

shows that the Lawrence records are considerably In error at times.

SUSQUEHANNA RIVER BASIN 329

Cohocton River near Campbell, N. Y.

Location.- Chain gage, lat. 42°15'10", long. 77°13«, at highway bridge 2 miles above 

Campbell, Steuben County.

Drainage area.- 472 square miles.

Records available.- July 1918 to September 1935.

Average discharge.- 17 years, 429 second-feet.

Extremes.- Maximum discharge during year, 45,400 second-feet July 8 from slope-area 

determination (gage height, 11.6 feet, from flood marks): minimum, 22 second-feet 

Oct. 16-18.

1918-35: Maximum discharge, that of July 8, 1935; minimum, 8 second-feet 

Sept. 6, 7, 1934.

Remarks.- Records good except those for periods of Ice effect, Dec. 6 to Jan. 9, Jan. 12 

to Mar. 10, those for periods of backwater from weeds, Oct. 1-29, May 29 to July 7, 

those for July 8-10, and those estimated, all of which are fair. A diversion from 

Mud Creek, a tributary above this station, for power development on Keuka Lake 

probably takes all the ordinary flow from the 45 square miles above Lamoka Lake 

outlet.
