Expansion of the USGS Cooperative Streamgage Network
To better serve the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the USGS, in cooperation with the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, has been funded to expand the cooperative streamgage network during 2006-2008 by installing 29 new streamgages with real-time data displayed on the USGS Web.
Between February 28, 2006 and December 04, 2007, 29 new streamflow-gaging stations were installed, one streamflow-gaging station was relocated, and nine existing streamflow-gaging stations were upgraded with near-real-time telemetry as part of the Expansion of the USGS Cooperative Streamgage Network in Massachusetts.
2006 Annual Water Data Report
Beginning with Water Year 2006, the ADR is a national report only and the reference to a local report in the WDR series is discontinued.
Therefore, to obtain the information about a specific state, basin or site, please start your search on the Water-resources data for the United States Water Year 2006 page.
This page gives the folowing options for search:
- Search by Site Number
- Search by US State or US State and County
- Search by area other than State, including Pacific Islands
- Search by Hydrologic Unit
A map-based tool for locating hydrologic data is also available.
The Mapper allows users to geographically locate surface water, ground water, and climatological sites and view and download published water data for those sites.
