The Flood Tracking Charts for North Dakota and Selected Tributaries can be used by local citizens and emergency response personnel to record the latest river stage and predicted flood-crest information. By comparing the current stage (water-surface elevation above some datum) and predicted flood crest to the recorded peak stages or previous floods, emergency response personnel and residents can make informed decisions concerning the threat to life and property. One statement of caution: the surface of flowing water is not flat but has a slope. Therefore, water-surface elevations along a river might not be the same as the river stages at the gaging stations.

Additional Information

The network of river-gaging stations in North Dakota is operated by the USGS in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the North Dakota State Water Commission, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the Southeast Cass Water Resources District, the Cass County Joint Water Resource District, the Red River Joint Water Resource Board, and the Red River Watershed Management Board. For more information about USGS programs in North Dakota, contact the District Chief, U.S. Geological Survey, North Dakota District, at (701) 250-7400.
