Revised and reposted May 2010 (v1.1):

- All occurrences of "West Harland" has been replaced with "West Hartland".

-----------------------

- On page 1, "Peter W. Weiskel" has been changed to "Peter K. Weiskel".

-----------------------

- The last paragraph of the abstract (page 1) has been changed

from:

For the MA SYE tool, it is assumed that groundwater and surface-water divides are coincident. For areas of southeastern Massachusetts and Cape Cod where this assumption is known to be violated, groundwater-flow models are used to estimate average monthly streamflows at fixed locations. The MA SYE tool can be applied only to basins with ranges of physical and climate basin characteristics that are within the range under which the regression equations were developed. For example, the MA SYE tool is valid for basins whose drainage areas are between approximately 4 and 294 square miles. There are several limitations to the quality and quantity of the spatially referenced database of groundwater and surface-water withdrawals and discharges. The adjusted streamflow values do not account for the effects on streamflow of climate change, septic-system discharge, impervious area, non-public water-supply withdrawals less than 100,000 gallons per day, and impounded surface-water bodies.

- Page 8, table 3 - Units for temperature has been changed 

from:

"Fahrenheit" 

to:

"Celsius".

-----------------------

- In table 5 on page 10, the value in the first column of the last row has been changed 

from:

"0.100" 

to:

"1.00"

-----------------------

- On page 29, the second sentence under the heading Limitations has been changed 

from:

In particular, the use of the regression equations is limited to the range of basin characteristics used to develop the regression equations (fig. 5).

to:

In particular, the regression equations are based on a limited range of basin characteristics (fig. 5).

- On page 30, the first sentence of the paragraph immediately preceding the Summary section has been changed 

from:

"The MA SYE tool is unable to estimate streamflow for locations on the main stems of the Connecticut and Merrimack Rivers because large portions of these drainage basins are outside of Massachusetts and the methods developed for the MA SYE tool do include streamgages or basin characteristics for the northern portions of these basins."
