 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY OF THE COLORADO
RIVER BASIN, 1932

AUTHORIZATION AND SCOPE OF WORK

This volume is one of a series of 14 reports presenting records of

measurements of flow made on streams in the United States during
the year ending September 30, 1932.
The data presented in these reports were collected by the United
States Geological Survey under the following authority contained in
the organic law (20 Stat.L., p. 394):
Provided, That this officer [the director] shall have the direction of the Geologi-
cal Survey and the classification of public lands and examination of the geo-
logical structure, mineral resources, and products of the national domain.
The work was begun in 1888 in connection with special studies
relating to irrigation. Since the fiscal year ending June 30, 1895,
successive appropriation bills passed by Congress have carried the
following items:
For gaging the streams and determining the water supply of the United States
and for the investigation of underground currents and artesian wells and for the
preparation of reports upon the best methods of utilizing the water resources.

In the execution of the work many private and State organizations
have cooperated, either by furnishing data or by assisting in collect-
ing data. Acknowledgments for cooperation of the first kind are
made in connection with the description of each station affected;
cooperation of the second kind is acknowledged on page 10.
Measurements of stream flow have been made at about 6,590
points in the United States and also at many points in Alaska and the
Hawaiian Islands. In July 1932, 2,790 gaging stations were being
maintained by the Geological Survey and the cooperating organiza-
tions. Many miscellaneous discharge measurements were made at
1
2 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1932, PART 9

other points. In connection with this work, data wer0, also collected
in regard to precipitation, evaporation, storage reservoirs, river pro-
files, and water power in many sections of the country and will be made
available in water-supply papers from time to time.
DEFINITION OF TERMS

The volume of water flowing in a stream the "run-off" or "dis-

charge" is expressed in various terms, each of which has become
associated with a certain class of work. These terms may be divided
into two groups (1) those that represent a rate of flow, as second-
feet, gallons per minute, miner's inches, and discharge in second-feet
per square mile, and (2) those that represent the actual quantity of
water, as run-off in inches, acre-feet, and millions of cubic feet. The
principal terms used in this series of reports are second-feet, second-
feet per square mile, run-off in inches, and acre-feet. They may be
defined as follows:
"Second-feet" is an abbreviation for "cubic feet p*.r second." A
second-foot is the rate of discharge of water flowing in a channel of
rectangular cross section 1 foot wide and 1 foot deep at an average
velocity of 1 foot per second. It is generally used as a fundamental
unit from which others are computed.
"Second-feet per square mile" is the average number of cubic feet
of water flowing per second from each square mile cf area drained,
on the assumption that the run-off is distributed uniformly both as
regards time and area.
"Run-off in inches" is the depth to which an area would be covered
if all the water flowing from it in a given period were uniformly dis-
tributed on the surface.. It is used for comparing run-off with rain-
fall, which is usually expressed in inches.
An "acre-foot," equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet, is the quantity
required to cover an acre to the depth of 1 foot. Tl °- term is com-
monly used in connection with storage for irrigation.
The following terms not in common use are here defined:
"Stage-discharge relation," an abbreviation for the term "relation
of gage height to discharge."
"Control," a term used to designate the natural section or stretch
of the channel or artificial structure below the gage which determines
the stage-discharge relation at the gage.
EXPLANATION OF DATA

The data presented in this report cover the year beginning October
1, 1931, and ending September 30, 1932. At the beginning of Janu-
ary in most parts of the United States much of the precipitation in
the preceding 3 months is stored in the form of snc^v or ice, or in
 EXPLANATION OF DATA 6

ponds, lakes, and swamps, or as underground water, and this stored

water passes off in the streams during the spring break-up. At the
end of September, on the other hand, the only stored water available
for run-off is possibly a small quantity in the ground; therefore the
run-off for the year beginning October 1 is practically all derived
from the precipitation within that year.

FIGUKE 1. Typical river-measurement station showing concrete well and house for water-stage recorder
and staff gages, cable, and car.

The base data collected at gaging stations consist of records of stage,

measurements of discharge, and general information used to supple-
ment the gage heights and discharge measurements in determining
the daily flow. The records of stage are obtained either from direct
readings on a staff or chain gage or from a water-stage recorder that
gives a continuous record of the fluctuations. Measurements of
discharge are made with a current meter by the general methods
4 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1932, PART 9

outlined in standard textbooks on the measurement of river discharge.

A typical gaging station, equipped with water-stage recorder and
measuring cable and car, is shown in figure 1.
Rating tables giving the discharge for any stage are prepared from
the discharge measurements. The application of the daily gage height
to these rating tables gives the daily discharge from which the monthly
and yearly mean discharge is computed.
The data presented for each gaging station in the area covered by
this report comprise a description of the station and a table showing
the daily discharge of the stream and the monthly and yearly discharge
and run-off.
The description of the station gives, in addition to statements
regarding location and type of gage, information as to diversions that
decrease the flow at the gage, artificial regulation, maximum and mini-
mum recorded stages, and the accuracy of the records. The maxi-
mum discharge given under "Extremes" does not represent the crest
discharge unless a water-stage recorder was in operation or a non-
recording gage was read at the time of the crest.
The table of daily discharge gives, in general, the discharge in
second-feet corresponding to the daily gage height, which may be a
once-daily reading or the mean of twice-daily readings of a nonrecord-
ing gage, or the mean daily gage height obtained from a water-stage
recorder graph.
At stations on streams subject to sudden or rapid diurnal fluctuation
the discharge obtained from the rating table and the mean daily gage
height may not be the true mean discharge for the day. If such
stations are equipped with water-stage recorders, the mean daily dis-
charge may be obtained by averaging discharge at regular intervals
during the day or by using the discharge integrator, an instrument for
obtaining mean daily discharge from a continuous gage-height graph
and containing as an essential element the rating curve of the station.
In the table of monthly discharge the column headed "Maximum"
gives the maximum daily discharge and not the discharge when the
water surface was at crest height. Likewise, in the column headed
"Minimum" the quantity given is the minimum daily discharge.
The column headed "Mean" is the average flow in cubic feet per
second during the month. On this average flow are based computa-
tions recorded in the remaining columns, which are defined on page 2.
ACCURACY OF FIELD DATA AND COMPUTED RESULTS

The accuracy of stream-flow data depends primarily (1) on the

permanency of the stage-discharge relation, and (2) on the accuracy
of observation of stage, measurements of flow, and interpretation of
records.
 PUBLICATIONS O

The station description gives a statement in regard to the general

accuracy of the records. "Excellent" indicates that records are
accurate within 5 percent; "good" within 10 percent; "fair" yd thin
15 percent; and "poor," within 20 percent or more.
The monthly means for any station may represent with high accu-
racy the quantity of water flowing past the gage, but the f gures
showing discharge per square mile and run-off in inches may be sub-
ject to gross errors caused by the inclusion of large noncontril uting
districts in the measured drainage area, by lack of information con-
cerning water diverted for irrigation or other use, or by inabiFty to
interpret the effect of artificial regulation of the flow of the river
above the station. "Second-feet per square mile" and "run-off in
inches" are therefore not computed if such errors appear probable.
The computations are also omitted for stations on streams draining
areas in which the annual rainfall is less than 20 inches.
The table of monthly discharge gives a general idea of the flow at
the station. The table of daily discharge allows more detailed studies
of the variation in flow. It should be borne in mind, however, that
the observations in each succeeding year may be expected to throw
new light on data previously published.
Many gaging stations on streams hi the irrigated areas of the
United States are situated above most of the diversions from those
streams, and the discharge recorded does not show the water ripply
available for further development, as prior appropriations belcw the
stations must first be satisfied.

Investigation of water resources by the United States Geological

Survey has consisted in large part of measurements of the volvme of
flow of streams and studies of the conditions affecting that flow, but
it has comprised also investigation of such closely allied subjects as
irrigation, water storage, water power, underground waters, and
quality of waters. Most of the results of these investigations have
been published in the series of water-supply papers, but some have
appeared in the bulletins, professional papers, monographs, and
annual reports.
The results of stream-flow measurements are now published annu-
ally in 12 parts, each part covering an area whose boundaries coincide
with natural drainage features as indicated below:
Part 1. North Atlantic slope basins (St. John River to York River).
2. South Atlantic slope and eastern Gulf of Mexico basins (James Ivver to
the Mississippi River).
3. Ohio River Basin.
4. St. Lawrence River Basin.
5. Hudson Bay and Upper Mississippi River Basins.

The records at most of the stations discussed in these reports

extend over a series of years. Miscellaneous measurements at many
points other than regular gaging stations have been made each year,
and are published under "Miscellaneous measurements" at the end
of each report in the same relative order as the regular gaging stations.
An index of the reports containing records obtained pnor to 1904 has
been published in Water-Supply Paper 119.
The following table gives, by years and drainage 1 ^ins, the num-
bers of the papers on surface-water supply published from 1899 to
1932. The data for any particular station will as a rule be found in
the reports covering the years during which the statior was maintained
For example, data from 1910 to 1920 for any station in the area
covered by part 3 are published in Water-Supply Papers 283, 303,
323, 353, 383, 403, 433, 453, 473, and 503, which contain records for
the Ohio River Basin for those years.
