  <dc:description>Water resources data for the 2002 water year for Massachusetts and Rhode Island consist of records of stage, discharge,&#13;
and water quality of streams; contents of lakes and reservoirs, precipitation totals, water levels of ground-water wells, and&#13;
water-quality of ground water. This report contains discharge records for 98 gaging stations, stage records for 2 gaging&#13;
stations, stage records for 2 ponds, month-end contents of 5 lakes and reservoirs, precipitation totals at 6 gaging stations, water&#13;
quality for 27 gaging stations, water levels for 136 observation wells, and ground-water quality for 3 wells. Miscellaneous&#13;
hydrologic data were collected at various sites that were not a part of the systematic data-collection program; these data are&#13;
published as miscellaneous discharge measurements, miscellaneous surface-water-quality data, and miscellaneous groundwater-&#13;
quality data. These data represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey&#13;
and cooperating State and Federal agencies in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.</dc:description>
