USGS Current Water Data for North Dakota

THREATENED-GAGE-NOTICE FOR NORTH DAKOTA


USGS to Discontinue Streamgages Due to Sequestration: The U.S.Geological Survey (USGS) will discontinue operation
of up to 375 streamgages nationwide due to budget cuts as a result of sequestration. Additional streamgages may
be affected if partners reduce their funding to support USGS streamgages. The USGS is working to identify which
streamgages will be impacted and will post this information as it becomes available. Streamgages are used nationwide
to predict and address drought and flood conditions by monitoring water availability. The USGS and over 850 Federal,
State, and local agencies cooperatively fund the USGS streamgaging network, which consists of over 8,000 streamgages.
When budget fluctuations occur, the network is impacted.


For further information please call 701-250-7400, or contact us at the web address at the bottom of this screen.

The colored dots on this map depict streamflow conditions as a percentile, which is computed from the period of record for the current day of the year. Only stations with at least 30 years of record are used.
The gray circles indicate other stations that were not ranked in percentiles either because they have fewer than 30 years of record or because they report parameters other than streamflow. Some stations, for example, measure stage only.

Real-time data typically are recorded at 15-60 minute intervals, stored onsite, and then transmitted to USGS offices every 1 to 4 hours, depending on the data relay technique used. Recording and transmission times may be more frequent during critical events. Data from real-time sites are relayed to USGS offices via satellite, telephone, and/or radio and are available for viewing within minutes of arrival. All real-time data are provisional and subject to revision.
