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.

LOCATION - Lat 30°14'41", long 83°14'59" referenced to North American Datum of 1927, in NW 1/4 sec.08, T.3 S., R.11 E., Lafayette County, FL, Hydrologic Unit 03110205, at bridge on County Road 250 at Dowling Park and 112 mi upstream from mouth.
DRAINAGE AREA - 7,190 mi². includes part of watershed in Okefenokee Swamp, which is indeterminate.
REVISIONS HISTORY - Revisions: Daily values for temperature and specific conductance records for March 2, 2017, March 21-22, 2017, April 19, 2017, July 20-22, 2017, July 26, 2017, August 8-12, 2017, August 14, 2017, and August 30, 2017 were revised on March 9, 2018. Daily values were computed with insufficient unit values and did not meet the USGS minimum criteria for publication.
Revisions: Gage height and discharge for the period Apr. 11, 2014, to Oct. 17, 2017, were revised on May 22, 2018, based on an error discovered during routine levels ran on Feb. 15, 2018. Mean gage heights for discharge measurements 104-134, shift curves for measurements 122-134 , and the gage height peaks for water years 2015, 2016, and 2017 were revised.
