Abstract

Water-resources data for the 2004 water year for Nevada consists of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; precipitation; and water levels in wells. This report contains discharge records for streamflow-gaging stations on streams, canals and drains; Discharge data for partial record stations and miscellaneous sites, and springs; stage and contents records for  ponds, lakes and reservoirs; Water levels for observation wells; Water-quality data for streams, canal, spring, drain sites and wells; precipitation totals; and water withdrawals.
