What is a Water-Data Report?

Water-Data Reports for North Dakota consist of yearly records of discharge, stage, and water quality for streams; contents, stage, and water quality for lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality for ground-water wells.  

Volume 1 contains records of water discharge for streamflow-gaging stations; stage only for river-stage stations; contents and/or stage for lake or reservoir stations; annual maximum discharge for crest-stage stations; and water quality for streamflow-gaging stations, river-stage stations, lake or reservoir stations, and miscellaneous sample sites on streams and lakes.  Also included are water-quality data for precipitation chemistry stations. 

Volume 2 contains water-level records for ground-water wells and monitoring well water-quality records.

These data represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating Federal, State, and local agencies in North Dakota.
