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.

SURFACE-WATER RECORDS
PERIOD OF RECORD -
DISCHARGE: June 2001 to current year.

For period 10/01/2015-09/30/2016: Specific conductance and water temperature records are rated good, Turbidity records are rated poor.
For period 10/01/2016-09/30/2017: Specific conductance and water temperature records are rated good, Turbidity records are rated poor.
For period 10/01/2017-09/30/2018: Specific conductance and water temperature records are rated good, Turbidity records are rated poor.

Data for parameter code 63680 (turbidity) were collected using a probe with the following specifications: turbidity, water, monochrome near infra-red LED light, 780-900 nm, detection angle 90 +/-2.5 degrees, FNU (Formazin Nephelometric Units). Prior to October 1, 2004, turbidity data were published using parameter code 00076: turbidity, water, unfiltered, NTU(Nephelometric Turbidity Units). Hydrologic event code of 9 indicates a routine sample while J designates a storm event sample. Laboratory chemical analyses are by RTI Laboratories, Livonia, MI. Laboratory sediment analyses are by the U.S. Geological Survey, Kentucky Sediment Laboratory. Field determinations of discharge, gage height, specific conductance, pH, water temperature, air temperature, turbidity, barometric pressure and dissolved oxygen are by the U.S. Geological Survey.
