Flow affected by ground-water pumping and changes in farming practices after 1965 WY. The record for WY1925 does
not meet the requirements in the text for periods of constant flow as there was no gage-height record for most of
October - February of WY1925.

A water year with acceptable data is indicated by an asterisk in the time line, which spans 1874 through 1988.
