Station list



The following table contains annual maximum discharges for crest-stage stations. A crest-stage gage is a device that will register the peak stage occurring between inspections to a 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 a 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. The station description for a site can be obtained by selecting the name of the station.
