Abstract

Water resources data for the 1997 water year for New York consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; ground-water levels; and precipitation quality. This volume contains records for water discharge at 117 gaging stations; stage only at 9 gaging stations; stage and contents at 4 gaging stations, and 18 other lakes and reservoirs; water quality at 35 gaging stations and 1 precipitation-quality station; and water levels at 5 observation wells. Also included are data for 38 crest-stage partial-record stations. Locations of all these sites are shown on figure 8. Additional water data were collected at various sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program, and are published as miscellaneous measurements and analyses.These data together with the data in volumes 2 and 3 represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with State, Municipal, and Federal agencies in New York.
