Notice:Due to a lapse in appropriations, the majority of USGS websites may not be up to date and may not reflect current conditions. Websites displaying real-time data, such as Earthquake, Volcano, LANDSAT and Water information needed for public health and safety will be updated with limited support. Additionally, USGS will not be able to respond to inquiries until appropriations are enacted. For more information, please see www.doi.gov/shutdown.

Notes

This model is used to compute values at this station only from 1999 through 2006, the range of time when a 6026-model turbidity sensor was used. Beginning in 2007, a 6136-model turibidty sensor was installed, resulting in a change to the model.
