Abstract
This report documents the results of the first phase of a study of the cost effectiveness of the streamflow-information program in Utah. Data use, funding, and data availability are described for the streamflow stations operated by the U.S. Geological Survey; and a history of the stream-gaging program is given. During the 1984 water year, 214 continuous streamflow stations were operated on a budget of $854,000. Data from most stations have multiple uses and all stations presently have sufficient justification for continuation.
