Annual Water Data Reports

Water Resources Data reports were published annually for many

decades for use by engineers, scientists, managers, educators, and

the general public. These static archival products supplemented direct

access to current and historical water data provided by the National

Water Information System web interface (NWISWeb), the

authoritative source for USGS water data.

Beginning with Water Year 2006 and ending with Water Year 2013,

annual water data reports were made available as individual electronic

Site Data Sheets for the entire Nation for retrieval, download, and

localized printing on demand. Over that time, NWISWeb capabilities

have become more comprehensive. Building on these capabilities,

USGS has moved the Site Data Sheet functions into NWISWeb. As of

2014, NWISWeb now provides an on-demand, print-ready Water-Year

Summary as an annual water-data product.

2014-present: Water Year Summaries

Each site's Water-Year Summary will be available on-demand as

soon as the water-year data are reviewed and approved as final.

To retrieve Water Year Summaries

Navigate to the site in NWISWeb

This takes you to the NWIS Web home page for the state.

Several search options are available from there, including a

'Current Conditions' list of active real-time sites and the

NWIS Mapper.

The various search options will help you find individual sites.

Once at the site page, select "Water-Year Summary" from

the 'Available data for this site' pull-down menu.

For example, Site 07300000 water-year summary

Pre-2005: Water Resource Data reports

From 1962 until 2005, reports were published by State as paper

documents, although most reports since the mid-1990s are also

available in electronic form through this web page. Reports prior

to Water Year 1961 were published in occasional USGS WaterSupply Papers and other reports.
