SURFACE WATER SUPPLY OF THE OHIO RIVER BASIN ABOVE KANAWHA RIVER

SCOPE OF WORK

This volume is one of a series of 37 reports presenting records of stage, discharge, and content, of 

streams, lakes, and reservoirs in the United States during the 1961-65 water years. Since 1888, when the 

U.S. Geological Survey first studied streamflow in relation to problems of irrigation, similar records have 

been obtained at more than 17,500 gaging stations in the 50 States. On September 30, 1965, the Geological 

Survey and cooperating organizations were maintaining 9,100 gaging stations. Partial-record stations for 

low flow or for floodflow have been operated at many other points. The records for the 1961-65 water years 

at gaging stations and partial-record stations in the Ohio River basin above Kanawha River are given in 

this report.

DEFINITION OF TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS 

The terms of streamflow and other hydrologic data, as used in this report, are defined as follows:

Gaging station is a particular site on a stream, canal, lake, or reservoir where systematic observations 

of gage height or discharge are obtained. When used in connection with a discharge record, the term is 

applied herein only to those gaging stations where a continuous record of discharge is obtained.

Hydrologic bench-mark station is one that provides hydrologic data for a basin in which the hydrologic 

regimes will likely be governed solely by natural conditions. Data collected at a bench-mark station may 

be used to separate effects of natural frommanmade changes in other basins which have been developed and 

in which the physiography, climate, and geology are similar to those in the undeveloped bench-mark basin.

Partial-record station is a particular site where limited streamflow data are collected systematically 

over a period of years for use in hydrologic analyses.

Discharge is the volume of water in a stream which passes a given point in a unit of time.

Cubic foot per second (cfs) is the rate of discharge representing a volume of 1 cubic foot passing a given 

point during 1 second and is equivalent to 7.48 gallons per second or 448.8 gallons per minute.

Cubic feet per second per square mile (cfsm) is the average number of cubic feet of water flowing per 

second from each square mile of area drained, assuming that the runoff is distributed uniformly in time 

and area.

Runoff in Inches (in.) shows the depth to which the drainage area would be covered if all the runoff 

a given time period were uniformly distributed on it.

Acre-foot (ac-ft) is the quantity of water required to cover an acre to the depth of 1 foot and is equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet or 325,851 gallons.
DOWNSTREAM ORDER AND STATION NUMBER 3

Cfs-day is the volume of water represented by a flow of 1 cubic foot per second for 24 hours. It is equivalent to 86,400 cubic feet, 1.983471 acre-feet, or 646,317 gallons, and represents a runoff of 0.0372 inch 

from 1 square mile.

Stage-discharge relation is the relation between gage height (the stage of the stream in relation to a 

reference gage) and the amount of water flowing in a channel, expressed as volume per unit of time.

Control designates a feature downstream from the gage that determines the stage-discharge relation 

at the gage. This feature may be a natural constriction of the channel, an artificial structure, or a uniform 

cross section over a long reach of the channel.

Contents is the volume of water in a reservoir. Unless otherwise indicated, volume is computed on the 

basis of a level pool and does not include bank storage.

Drainage area of a stream above a specified location is that area, measured in a horizontal plane, 

enclosed by a topographic divide from which direct surface runoff from precipitation normally drains by 

gravity into the river above the specified point. Figures of drainage area given herein include all closed 

basins, or noncontributing area, within the area unless otherwise noted.

WSP is used as an abbreviation for "Water-Supply Paper" in reference to previously published reports. 

DOWNSTREAM ORDER AND STATION NUMBER

Beginning with the series of reports for the water year ending September 30, 1951, the order of listing 

gaging-station records is in a downstream direction along the main stem. All stations on a tributary 

entering above a main-stem station are listed before that station. A station on a tributary that enters 

between two main-stem stations is listed between them. A similar order is followed In listing stations on 

first rank, second rank, and other ranks of tributaries. The rank of any tributary on which a gaging station is situated with respect to the stream to which it is immediately tributary is indicated by an indention 

in the listing of gaging stations in the table of contents of this report. Each indention represents one rank. 

This downstream order and system of indention show which gaging stations are on tributaries between any 

two stations and the rank of the tributary on which each gaging station is situated.

The order of listing used before the publication of the 1951 report listed first all stations on the main 

stem from headwaters toward mouth, then all stations on the uppermost tributary to the main stem from 

the tributary's source to mouth, and then all stations from source to mouth of the uppermost tributary to 

the tributary.

As an added means of identification, each gaging station and partial-record station has been assigned 

a number. Numbers have been assigned in the same downstream order as described in this report. In 

assigning station numbers, no distinction is made between partial-record stations and regular gaging 

stations; the station number for a partial- record station indicates downstream-order position in a list 

made up of both types of stations. Gaps are left in the numbers to allow for new stations that may be 

established; hence the numbers are not consecutive. The complete 8-digit number for each station, such 

as 03-1465.00, includes the part number "03" plus a 6-digit number. In this report the nonessential zeros 

are not shown. For example, the complete number 03-1465.00 will appear as 3-1465, just to the left of 

the station name.
4 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1961-65, PART 3, VOLUME 1

EXPLANATION OF DATA

The base data collected at gaging stations consist of records of stage and measurements of discharge. 

In addition, observations of factors affecting the stage-discharge relation, weather records, and other 

information are used as needed to supplement base data in determining the daily flow. Records of stage 

are obtained from a water-stage recorder that gives a continuous graph of fluctuations (for digital recorders, a tape punched at 15-, 30-, or 60-minute intervals) or from direct readings on a nonrecording gage. 

Measurements of discharge are made with a current meter by the general methods adopted by the Geological Survey on the basis of experience in stream gaging since 1888. These methods are described in WaterSupply Paper 888 and in U.S. Geological Survey Techniques of Water Resources Investigations, book 3, 

chapter A6.

Rating tables giving the discharge for any stage are prepared from stage-discharge relation curves 

defined by discharge measurements. If extensions to the rating curves are necessary to define the extremes 

of discharge, they are made on the basis of indirect measurements of peak discharge, (such as slope-area 

or contracted-opening measurements, computation of flow over dams or weirs,and by other methods), 

velocity-area studies, and logarithmic plotting. The application of the daily mean gage height to those 

rating tables gives the daily mean discharge, from which the monthly and the yearly mean discharges are 

computed. If the stage-discharge relation is subject to change because of frequent or continual change in 

the physical features that form the control, the daily mean discharge is determined by the shifting-control 

method, in which correction factors based on individual discharge measurements and on notes by engineers 

and observers are used in applying the gage heights to the rating tables. If the stage-discharge relation 

for a station is temporarily changed by the presence of aquatic growth or debris on the control, the daily 

mean discharge is computed by what is basically the shifting-control method.

At some gaging stations the stage-discharge relation is affected by backwater from reservoirs, 

tributary streams, or other sources. This necessitates the use of the slope method in which the slope or 

fall in a reach of the stream is a factor in determining discharge. Information requisite for determining 

the slope or fall is obtained by means of an auxiliary gage set at some distance from the base gage. At 

some stations the stage-discharge relation is affected by rapid change in stage. If so, the rate of change 

in stage is used as a factor in determining discharge.

At most gaging stations in the northern part of the United States and at some in the mountainous regions 

of other parts of the country the stage-discharge relation is affected by ice during the winter, and it 

becomes impossible to compute the discharge in the usual manner. Discharge for periods of ice effect 

is computed on the basis of gage-height record and occasional winter discharge measurements, consideration being given to the available information on temperature and precipitation, notes by gage observers and 

hydrologists, and comparable records of discharge for other stations in the same or nearby basins.

For some gaging stations there are periods when no gage-height record is obtained or the recorded 

gage height is so faulty that it cannot be used to compute the daily discharge. This happens when the 

recorder stops or otherwise fails to operate properly, intakes are plugged, float is frozen in the well, or 

for various other reasons. For such periods the daily discharges are estimated on the basis of recorded 

range in stage, adjoining good record, discharge measurements, weather records, and comparison with 

other station records from the same or nearby basins.
EXPLANATION OF DATA 5

The data in this report generally comprise a description of the station, and tables showing the daily 

discharge and monthly and yearly discharges of the stream. Records are published on a water year basis 

which begins on October 1 and ends on September 30.

The description of the station gives the location, drainage area, records available, type and history of 

gages, average discharge, extremes of discharge, general remarks, and notations on revisions of the previously published record. The location of the gaging station and the drainage area are obtained from the 

most accurate maps available. River mileage, given under "Location" for some stations, is that determined 

and used by the Corps of Engineers unless otherwise noted. Under "Records available" are given the periods 

for which there are published records generally equivalent to those at present site. Under "Gage" are 

given the type of gage currently in use and the datum of the present gage above mean sea level, and a 

condensed history of the types, locations, and datums of previous gages used during the period of records 

available. The reference to "datum of 1929" and adjustments of other years are to the datum and adjustments of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. Under "Average discharge" Is given the average discharge 

for the number of years indicated. It is not given for stations having fewer than five complete years of 

record or for stations where changes in water development during the period of record cause the figure to 

have little significance. Under "Extremes" are given, usually in tabular form, the maximum Instantaneous 

discharge and gage height for the current water years (1961-65); the minimum instantaneous discharge if 

there is little or no regulation; the minimum daily discharge if there Is extensive regulation (also the minimum Instantaneous discharge if it is abnormally low); and the minimum gage height if It is also abnormally 

low. For stations for which peak discharges are published, all independent peaks above the selected base 

and the time of occurrence and corresponding gage heights are published in the first table under 

"Extremes." The base discharge, which is given in parentheses in the table heading, is selected so that an 

average of about three peaks a year will be presented. Peak discharges are not published for any canals, 

ditches, drains, or for any stream for which the peaks are subject to substantial control by man. Time of 

day Is expressed in 24-hour local standard time; for example, 12:30 a.m. is 0030, 1:30 p.m. is 1330. The 

mlnimums for these stations are published in a separate table following the table of peaks. In the paragraph 

following the current data, the data given are for the periods of record within the calendar year dates in 

the heading (not necessarily those for the complete years indicated by the heading dates). Reliable information concerning major floods that have occurred outside the period of record are given in the last paragraph 

under "Extremes." Unless otherwise qualified, the maximum discharge corresponds to the crest stage 

obtained by use of a water-stage recorder (graphic or digital), a crest-stage gage, or a nonrecording gage 

read at the time of the crest. If the maximum gage height did not occur at the same time as the maximum 

discharge, it is given separately. Information pertaining to the accuracy of the records and conditions 

which affect the natural flow at the gaging station is given under "Remarks."

Previously published records of some stations have been found to be In error on the basis of data or 

information later obtained. Revisions of such reports are usually published along with the current records 

in one of the annual or compilation reports. In order to make It easier to find such revised records, a 

paragraph headed "Revisions (water years)" has been added to the description of all stations for which 

revised records have been published. Listed therein are all the reports In which revisions have been 

published, each followed by the water years for which figures are revised in that report. In listing the water 

years only one number is given; for instance, 1933 stands for the water year October 1, 1932, to 

September 30, 1933. If no dally, monthly, or annual figures of discharge are concerned In the revision, the 

fact is brought out by notations after the year dates as follows: "(M)" means that only the instantaneous 

maximum discharge was revised; "(m)" that only the instantaneous minimum was revised; and "(P)" that 

only peak discharges were revised. If the drainage area has been revised, the report in which the revised
6 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1961-65, PART 3, VOLUME 1

figure was first published Is given. It should be noted that for all stations for which cubic feet per second 

per square mile and runoff in inches are published, a revision of the drainage area necessitates corresponding revision of all figures based on the drainage area. Revised figures of cubic feet per second per square 

mile and runoff in inches resulting from a revision of the drainage area only are usually not published in 

the annual series of reports.

The dally table gives the discharge corresponding to the daily mean gage height unless there are large 

or rapid changes in the discharge during a day. For days having large or rapid changes, discharge for the 

day is computed by averaging the mean discharge for several parts of the day. For digital recorders, the 

daily mean dischargeis alwaystheaverageof the discharges at each punched reading. For stations equipped 

with non-recording gages, the daily discharge corresponds to once-daily readings of the gage or to the mean 

of twice-daily readings; but for periods of rapidly changing stage, the discharge is determined from gageheight graph based on gage readings.

In the monthly summary below the daily table, the line headed "TOTAL" gives the sum of the daily 

figures; it is the total cfs-days for the month. The line headed "MEAN" gives the average flow in cubic 

feet per second during the month. On the line headed "MAX" the figures are the maximum daily discharges 

for the months, not the momentary maximum discharges. Likewise, the line headed "MIN" are the minimum 

daily discharges for the months. Discharge for the month may be expressed in cubic feet per second per 

square mile (line headed "CFSM"), or in inches (line headed "IN"), or in acre-feet (line headed "AC-FT"). 

Figures for cubic feet per second per square mile and runoff in Inches are omitted if the drainage area 

includes large noncontributing areas, or if the average annual rainfall over the drainage basin is usually 

less than 20 inches, or if the flow is appreciably affected by regulation by upstream reservoirs.

In the yearly summary below the monthly summary, the figures of maximum are the maximum daily 

discharges for the calendar and water years; likewise, the minimum s are the minimum daily discharges.

Footnotes to the table of daily discharge are introduced by the word "NOTE." Footnotes are used to 

indicate periods for which the discharge is computed or estimated by special methods because of no gageheight record, backwater from various sources, or other unusual conditions. Periods of no gage-height 

record are indicated if the period is continuous for a month or more or includes the maximum discharge 

for the year. Periods of backwater from an unusual source, of indefinite stage-discharge relation, or of 

any other unusual condition at the gage site are indicated only if they are a month or more in length and 

the accuracy of the records is affected. Days on which the stage-discharge relation is affected by ice are 

not indicated. The methods used in computing discharge forvarious unusual conditions have been explained 

in preceding paragraphsv

For most gaging stations on lakes and reservoirs the data presented comprise a description of the station and a monthly summary table of stage and contents. For some reservoirs a table showing daily 

contents or stage is given. A skeleton table of capacity at given stages is published for all reservoirs for 

which records are published on a daily basis, but is not published for reservoirs for which only monthly 

data are given.

ACCURACY OF FIELD DATA AND COMPUTED RESULTS

The accuracy of streamflow data depends primarily on (1) the stability of the stage-discharge relation 

or, if the control is unstable, the frequency of discharge measurements, and (2) the accuracy of observations of stage, measurements of discharge, and interpretation of records.
Figure 1. Map of the United States showing area covered by the volumes in the series on surface-water supply. The area covered by this

report is shaded.
OTHER DATA AVAILABLE 7

The station description under "Remarks" states the degree of accuracy of the records. "Excellent" 

means that about 95 percent of the daily discharges are within 5 percent; "good", within 10 percent; and 

"fair" within 15 percent. "Poor" means that daily discharges have less than "fair" accuracy.

In earlier reports the figures of daily mean discharge, computed manually, were usually rounded to 

tenths below 10 cfs, but the rounding rules were not rigid; some discharges were given to hundredths if 

the accuracy was sufficiently good and others were rounded to whole numbers If the accuracy was poor. 

In this report, however, most of the tables of daily mean discharge are tabulated by a computer which 

rounds the figures solely on basis of the magnitude of the discharge. Therefore, zeros to the right of the 

decimal point should not be construed to indicate an accuracy greater than is stated in the "Remarks" 

paragraph.

Discharge at some stations, as indicated by the monthly mean, may vary widely from natural runoff, 

owing to diversion, consumption, regulation by storage, increase or decrease in evaporation due to artificial causes, or to other factors. For such stations, figures of cubic feet per second per square mile and 

of runoff in inches are not published unless satisfactory adjustments can be made for diversions, for 

changes in contents of reservoirs, or for other changes incident to use and control. Evaporation from a 

reservoir is not included in the adjustments for changes in reservoir contents, unless it Is so stated. Even 

at those stations where adjustments are made, large errors In computed runoff may occur if adjustments 

or losses are large in comparison with the observed discharge.

OTHER DATA AVAILABLE

Data collected at partial-record stations are given at the end of this report. Data for partial-record 

stations are presented in two tables. The first is a table of discharge measurements at low-flow partialrecord stations, and the second is a table of annual maximum stage and discharge at crest-stage stations. 

Occasionally, a series of discharge measurements are made within a short time period to investigate the 

seepage gains or losses along a reach of a stream or to determine the low-flow characteristics of an area. 

Such measurements are given in special tables following the tables of partial-record stations.

Information of a more detailed nature than that published for most of the gaging stations Is on file in 

the district offices, such as discharge measurements, gage-height records, and rating tables. Many 

gaging-station records have been analyzed to give several statistical summaries, mainly: (1) the number 

of days in each year that the daily discharge was between selected limits (duration tables); (2) the lowest 

mean discharge for selected numbers of consecutive days in each year; and (3) the highest mean discharge 

for selected numbers of consecutive days in each year.

At or near some gaging stations, water-quality records also are collected. Data are obtained on the 

chemical quality of the stream water, on water temperature, on suspended-sediment concentration, and 

on the particle-size distribution of suspended sediment and bed material. Under "Remarks" of the station 

description, reference is made to water-quality records collected on a regular basis for that station. 

Results of the data collected are published in water-supply papers entitled "Quality of Surface Waters of 

the United States," and in annual reports issued by States beginning with the 1964 water year. These 

annual reports are entitled, "Water Resources Data for (state). Part 2, Water Quality Records." Information on the availability of electronic computer analyses, unpublished data, or quality of water records 

may be obtained from the district offices listed on page 2.
SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1961-65, PART 3, VOLUME 1 9 

PUBLICATIONS

Through September 30, 1960, the records of discharge and stage of streams and contents and stage of 

lakes or reservoirs were published in an annual series of U.S. Geological Survey water-supply papers 

entitled "Surface Water Supply of the United States." Eflor to 1951, there were 14 volumes in the series; 

one for each of the 14 parts whose boundaries coincided with certain natural drainage lines within the 

conterminous United States. From 1951 to 1960, there were 20 volumes in the series, including one each 

for the States of Alaska and Hawaii.

This report marks the beginning of a new series of water-supply papers to be published on a 5-year 

basis. This series covers the 5-year period October 1, 1960, to September 30, 1965. To meet interim 

requirements, streamflow and related data have been released by the Geological Survey in annual reports, 

beginning with the 1961 water year, by State. These reports are entitled, "Water Resources Data for 

(state). Part 1. Surface Water Records." Distribution of these reports is limited and primarily for local 

needs. Any revision or corrections found necessary to the records published in these annual State reports 

have been made and published herein without reference.

Records for the area covered by this report have been compiled through September 1950 and for the 

period October 1950 to September 1960 and published in Water-Supply Papers 1305 and 1725, respectively. 

These reports contain a summary of monthly and annual discharges for all previously published records 

as well as some records not contained in the annual series of water-supply papers. All records were reexamined and revised where warranted. Estimates of discharge were made to fill short gaps whenever 

practical.

The reports listed in the foregoing tables contain the customary records of discharge collected during 

the systematic operation of gaging stations. Detailed information on the stage and discharge of many streams 

during major floods has been included in special reports on these floods published by the Geological Survey. 

The more recent of these special reports also contain other pertinent hydrologic information and analyses 

and compilations of data relating to earlier notable floods. The following list gives the numbers and titles

Maximum discharge known, 28,800 cfs Mar. 17, 18, 1936, by slope-area measurement.

Remarks. Records good. Flow regulated by reservoirs and diversion above station; the two most

eTTective reservoirs have a combined capacity of 245,700,000 cu ft. Figures of daily discharge do 

not include diversion at South Fork intake to Cambria plant of Bethlehem Steel Co., from Saltlick 

Run Reservoir to city of Johnstown, and from Wilmore Reservoir (capacity 137,000,000 cu ft; 

average diversion, about 2.6 cfs) to Pennsylvania Railroad. Records of chemical analyses for the 

water year 1965 are published in reports of the Geological Survey.

Revisions (water years). WSF 1305: 1939-50 (adjusted monthly runoff).

curve extended above 7,500 cfs on basis of slope-area measurement of peak flow; no flow at times 

during October 1919, September, October, December 1922, caused by either diversion or pondage at 

small dam upstream.

1915-26, 1938-65: Maximum discharge observed, 91,500 cfs Jan. 2, 1919 (gage height, 21.2 ft), 

from rating curve extended above 50,000 cfs; minimum daily, -33 cfs Sept. 27, Oct. 2, 1917; minimum daily since October 1938, 195 cfs Jan. 27, 1940.

Flood in 1888, before lock 15 was built, reached a stage of about 26 ft.

Remarks. Records good above 2,000 cfs and fair below except those for periods of indefinite stagedischarge relation, which are poor. Since October 1938, published records below 800 cfs do not 

include lockage or leakage through lock gates and valves, both of which are usually a very small 

percentage of the total flow. Flow partly regulated by iygart Lake (see station 3-0555).

Revisions (water years).--WSP 583: 1915-24. WSP 623: 1924. WSP 893: Drainage area. WSP 1205:

Location (revised).--Lat 40°08'30", long 79°53'35", on right bank on land guide wall 1,050 ft upstream rrom dam at lock 4 at Charleroi, Washington County, 0.9 mile downstream from Maple Creek, 

and at mile 41.7.

Drainage area. 5,213 sq mi.

Records available.--October 1933 to September 1965. Monthly discharge prior to 1940, adjusted for 

reservoir contents, publishediin WSP 1305. Records for March 1886 to March 1905 (high-water 

periods only), published in WSP 169, are unreliable and should not be used (peak discharge of 

July 11, 1888, as published in WSP 783, is still considered reliable).

Gage. Water-stage recorder and concrete dam. Datum of gage is 735.33 ft above mean sea level 

U^orps of Engineers bench mark).

Average discharge. 32 years, 8,938 cfs (adjusted for storage).

Extremes.--Maximum and minimum discharges for the water years 1961-65 are contained in the 

following table:

Maximum stage known, 42.0 ft on lower gage, at old lock 1 mile downstream, or about 26.1 ft 

on present gage, July 11, 1888 (discharge, about 156,000 cfs).

Remarks.--Records good except those for period of indefinite stage-discharge relation, which are 

1'air. Flow regulated by locks above station since 1926 by Lake Lynn, and since 1938 by Tygart 

Lake (see station 3-0555), combined capacity, 357,300 acre-ft (revised). Records of chemical 

analyses and water temperatures for the water years 1964-65 are published in reports of the 

Geological Survey.

Revisions (water years). WSP 758: Drainage area. WSP 783: 1888(M). WSP 1435: 1934, 1936.

1933 when Pymatuning Dam was under construction.

Remarks.--Reservoir is formed in two parts. The main dam is earthfill with stone facing, provided 

with regulating gates (outlet gate sill elevation at 975.3 ft), and a spillway with crest 

elevation at 1,008.0 ft. An auxiliary dam 15 miles upstream from the main dam with spillway 

elevation at 1,010 ft is uncontrolled. Dams were completed in Dec. 1933 and storage began Jan. 23, 

1934, when all regulating gates were closed. Capacity, 188,040 acre-ft between elevations 

975.3 ft and 1,008.0 ft. Dead storage, 10,150 acre-ft (93 acre-ft behind main dam below elevation 

975.3 ft and 10,060 acre-ft behind upstream dam below elevation 1,010 ft). Upstream pool was 

filled (all dead storage accumulated) on March 5, 1934. Figures given herein represent usable 

contents. Reservoir'used to regulate flow in Shenango River and for flood control. Dams built 

and maintained by Pennsylvania Department of Forests and Waters.

which are poor. Part of municipal water supply for city of Canton is pumped from its northeast 

well field; a large portion of pumpage is believed to be diverted indirectly from creek as recharge for aquifer supplying well field. Mean annual pumpage for water years 1961-65, 10.9 cfs. 

At times low flow regulated by small pools above station.

Revisions (water years). WSP 1033: 1942(M), 1943(P), 1944(M). WSP 1143: 1948.

extended above 2,100 cfs; minimum, 0.80 cfs Sept. 17, 1964; minimum gage height, 1.63 ft 

Jan. 4, 5, 1959.

Remarks. Records fair. Some diurnal fluctuation caused by industrial plants above station. Water 

supply for city of Lancaster is pumped from wells, adjacent to the Hocking River, upstream from 

station. The pumpage averaged 5.1 cfs for water years 1961-65 and is returned as sewage downstream from the station. Flood flow affected by temporary retention in eight retarding basins 

(combined capacity, 6,245 acre-ft) above station. Controlled drainage area is 24.4 sq mi.

Correction. Figures of discharge in cubic feet per second per square mile and runoff in inches 

for period June 1956 to September 1960, published in some water-supply papers, are in error 

because there is diversion. Those figures are not published herein and should not be used.

604 DISCHARGE AT PARTIAL-RECORD STATIONS

As the number of streams on which streamflow information is likely to be desired far exceeds the 

number of stream-gaging stations feasible to operate at one time, the Geological Survey collects 

limited streamflow data at sites other than stream-gaging stations. When limited streamflow data 

are collected on a systematic basis over a period of years for use in hydrologic analyses, the site 

at which the data are collected is called a partial-record station. Data collected at these partialrecord stations are usable in low-flow or flood-flow analyses, depending on the type of data 

collected.

Records collected at partial-record stations are presented in two tables. The first is a table 

of discharge measurements at low-flow partial-record stations, and the second is a table of annual 

maximum stage and discharge at crest-stage stations.

LOW-PLOW PARTIAL-RECORD STATIONS

Measurements of streamflow in the area covered by this report made at low-flow partial-record 

stations are given in the following table. Most of these measurements were made during periods of 

base flow when streamflow is primarily from ground-water storage. These measurements, when correlated with the simultaneous discharge of a nearby stream where continuous records are available, 

will give a picture of the low-flow potentiality of stream. The column headed Period of record 

shows the water years in which measurements were made at the same, or practically the same, site.

CREST-STAGE PARTIAL-RECORD STATIONS 613

The following table contains annual maximum discharges for crest-stage stations. A crest-stage 

gage is a device which will register the peak stage occurring between inspections of the gage. A 

stage-discharge relation for each gage is developed from discharge measurements made by indirect 

measurements of peak flow or by current meter. The date of the maximum discharge is not always certain but is usually determined by comparison with nearby continuous-record stations, weather records, 

or local inquiry. Only the maximum discharge for each water year is given. Information on some 

lower floods may have been obtained but is not published herein. The years given in the period of 

record represent water years for which the annual maximum has been determined.
