Comments and qualifications on the data:
   Records are unsuitable for analysis at less than monthly resolution due to low head hydro dam induced diurnal
   fluctuations and minor regulation. Diversion of approximately 5 cfs for municipal supply upstream has been
   unchanged for years.


Monthly and longer averages for 42 water years are acceptable (all years except partial years).
A water year with acceptable data is indicated by an asterisk in the time line, which spans 1874 through 1988.
