SCOPE OF WORK

This volume is one of a series of 18 reports presenting measurements of stage, discharge, and content of streams, lakes, and reservoirs in the United States during the water year ending September 30, 1958. Since 1888, when the United States Geological Survey first studied streamflow in relation to problems of irrigation, similar measurements have been made at more than 14,000 gaging stations in the 48 States and at many others in the Terri­ tories of Alaska and Hawaii. On September 30, 1958, the Geological Survey and cooperating organizations were maintaining 7,090 gaging stations, including those in Alaska and Hawaii. Partial-record stations for low flow or for flood flow have been operated at many other points. In addition, discharge measurements are made at miscellaneous sites. The records for the water year October 1, 1957, to September 30, 1958, at gaging stations, partial- record stations, and miscellaneous sites in the Pacific slope basins in Oregon and lower Columbia River basin are given in this report.

DIVISION OP WORK

The stream-gaging work was done by the Water Resources Division of the Geological Sur­ vey, under the direction of personnel shown in the preface. The data for stations in the several States were collected and prepared for publication in the district offices listed below. State District office Address Oregon a/...... Portland...... 1001 NE. Lloyd Boulevard. Washington...... Tacoma...... 207 Federal Building. a/ The work was done in collaboration with L. A. Stanley, State engineer, and C. H. Reynolds, chairman, State Highway Commission. Information of a more detailed nature than that published for most of the gaging sta­ tions given in this report is on file in the district offices listed above. Provisional records of discharge prior to publication, and other unpublished data concerning the gaging-station records may generally be obtained from the district office.

DEFINITION OF TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS

The terms of streamflow and other hydrologic data, as used in this report, are defined as follows: flaging station is a particular site on a stream, canal, lake, or reservoir where sys­ tematic observations of gage height or discharge are obtained. When used in connection with a discharge record, the term is applied herein only to those gaging stations where a continuous record of discharge is obtained. Partial-record station is a particular site where limited stream-flow data are collec­ ted systematically over a period of years for use in hydrologic analyses. Cubic foot per second (cfs) is the rate of discharge of a stream whose channel is 1 square foot in cross-sectional area and whose average velocity is 1 foot per second. Cubic feet per second per square mile (cfsm) is the average number of cubic feet of water flowing per second from each square mile of area drained, assuming that the runoff is distributed uniformly in time and area. Runoff in inches (in.) shows the depth to which the drainage area would be covered if all the runoff for a given time period were uniformly distributed on it. Acre-foot (ac-ft) is the quantity of water required to cover an acre to the depth of 1 foot and is equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet. Cfs-day is the volume of water represented by a flow of 1 cubic foot per second for 24 hours. It is equivalent to 86,400 cubic feet, 1.983471 acre-feet, or 646,317 gallons, and represents a runoff of 0.0372 inch from 1 square mile. Stage-discharge relation is the relation between gage height and the amount of water flowing in a channel, expressed as volume per unit of time. Control designates a feature downstream from the gage that determines the stage- discharge relation at the gage. This feature may be a natural constriction of the chan­ nel, a long reach of the channel, or an artificial structure. Contents is the volume of water in a reservoir. Unless otherwise indicated, volume is computed on the basis of a level pool and does not include bank storage. The drainage area of a stream at a specified location is that area, measured in a hori­ zontal plane, which is so enclosed by a topographic divide that direct surface runoff from precipitation normally would drain by gravity into the river above the specified point. EXPLANATION OP DATA 3

Figures of drainage area given herein include all closed basins, or noncontributing areas, within the area unless otherwise noted. WSP is used as an abbreviation for "Water-Supply Paper" in references to previously published reports.

DOWNSTREAM ORDER AND STATION NUMBERS

Beginning with the series of reports for the water year ending September 30, 1951, the order of listing gaging-station records was changed. In this report, in a downstream direction along the main stem all stations on a tributary entering above a main-stem sta­ tion are listed before that station. If a tributary enters between two main-stem stations, it is listed between them. A similar order is followed in listing stations on first rank, second rank, and other ranks of tributaries. To indicate the rank of any tributary on which a gaging station is situated and the stream to which it is immediately tributary, each indention in the listing of gaging stations in the table of contents of this report represents one rank. This downstream order and system of Indention show which gaging sta­ tions are on tributaries between any two stations on a main stem and the rank of the trib­ utary on which each gaging station is situated. The order of listing used before the publication of the 1951 report listed first all stations on the main stem from headwaters toward mouth, then all stations on the uppermost tributary to the main stem from the tributary's source to mouth, and then all stations from source to mouth of the uppermost tributary to the tributary. As an added means of identification, each gaging station and partial-record station has been assigned a station number. The numbers have been assigned in the same downstream order used in this report. In assigning station numbers, no distinction is made between partial-record stations and regular gaging stations, so that the station number for a partial-record station indicates downstream-order position in a list made up of both types of stations. Gaps are left in the numbers to allow for new stations that may be estab­ lished; hence the numbers are not consecutive. The complete number for each station has eight digits, but the station number as shown in this report, Just to the left of the sta­ tion name, consists of only the essential digits of the complete number. For example, for a station with the complete number 14-0110.00, the station number shown in this report is 110. The notation in the two places to the left of the hyphen is the part number; it is (14) for all stations in this report and is therefore omitted.

EXPLANATION OP DATA

The base data collected at gaging stations consist of records of stage and measurements of discharge. In addition, observations of factors affecting the stage-discharge relation, weather records, and other information are used to supplement base data in determining the daily flow. The records of stage are obtained either from direct readings on a nonrecord- ing gage or from a water-stage recorder that gives a continuous record of fluctuations. Measurements of discharge are made with a current meter by the general methods adopted by the Geological Survey on the basis of experience in stream gaging since 1888. These methods are described in Water-Supply Paper 888 and are also outlined in standard text­ books on the measurement of stream discharge. 4 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1958, PART 14

Rating tables giving the discharge for any stage are prepared from stage-discharge relation curves defined by discharge measurements. If extensions to the rating curves are necessary to define the extremes of discharge, they are made on the basis of Indirect measurements of peak discharge (such as slope-area or contracted-opening measurements, computation of flow over dams or weirs, and by other methods), velocity-area studies, and logarithmic plotting. The application of the dally mean gage height to those rating tables gives the dally mean discharge, from which the monthly and the yearly mean dis­ charge are computed. If the stage-discharge relation is subject to change because of fre­ quent or continual change In the physical features that form the control, the dally mean discharge is determined by the shifting-control method, In which correction factors based on Individual discharge measurements and notes by engineers and observers are used In applying the gage heights to the rating tables. If the stage-discharge relation for a station Is temporarily changed by the presence of aquatic growth or debris on the control, the dally mean discharge is computed by what is essentially the shifting-control method. At some gaging stations the stage-discharge relation Is affected by backwater from reservoirs, tributary streams, or other sources. This necessitates the use of the slope method in which the slope or fall in a reach of the stream Is a factor In determining dis­ charge. Information requisite for determining the slope or fall Is obtained by means of an auxiliary gage set at some distance from the base gage. At some stations the stage- discharge relation Is affected by changing stage. If so, the rate of change of stage Is uaed as a factor In the determination of discharge. At most gaging stations In the northern part of the United States and at some in the mountainous regions of other parts the stage-discharge relation Is affected by ice during the winter, and It becomes impossible to compute the discharge In the usual manner. Dis­ charge for periods of ice effect is computed on the basis of the gage-height record and occasional winter discharge measurements, consideration being given to the available Information on temperature and precipitation, notes by gage observers and engineers, and comparable records of discharge for other stations In the same or nearby basins. If the stage-discharge relation is affected by Ice, this Information Is given in a note to the table. No mention is made of occasional days of Ice effect If the degree of accuracy of dally records is not changed. The data herein presented generally comprise a description of the station, a skeleton rating table, and a table showing the daily discharge and monthly and yearly discharge of the stream. Records are published for the water year which begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. A calendar for the water year 1958 is shown on page IV for the purpose of finding the day of the week for any date. The description of the station gives the location, drainage area, records available, type and history of gages, average discharge, extremes of discharge, general remarks, and notations of revisions of the previously published record. The location of the gaging station and the drainage area are obtained from the most accurate maps available. River mileage, given under "Location" for some stations, is that determined and used by the Corps of Engineers unless otherwise noted. Under "Records available" are given the peri­ ods for which there are published records generally equivalent to those at present site. Under "Gage" are given the type of gage currently In use and the datum of the present gage above mean sea level, and a condensed history of the types, locations, and datums EXPLANATION OF DATA 5 of previous gages used during the period of records available. Under "Average discharge" is given the average discharge for the number of years indicated. It is not given for stations having fewer than five complete years of record or for stations where changes in water development during the period of record cause the figure to have little significance. Under "Extremes" are given the maximum discharge and gage height; the minimum discharge if there is little or no regulation; the minimum daily discharge if there is extensive regu­ lation (also the minimum discharge if useful); and the minimum gage height (unless it is of no importance). In the first paragraph, the data given are for the complete current water year unless otherwise specified. In the second paragraph, the data given are for the periods of record within the calendar year dates in the heading (not necessarily those for the complete years indicated by the heading dates). Reliable information concerning major floods that have occurred outside the period of record are given in the third or last paragraph under "Extremes." Unless otherwise qualified, the maximum discharge cor­ responds to the crest stage obtained by use of a water-stage recorder, a crest-stage indicator, or a nonrecording gage read at the time of the crest. If the maximum gage height did not occur at the same time as the maximum discharge, it is given separately. Information pertaining to the accuracy of the records and conditions which affect the natural flow at the gaging station is given under "Remarks." Previously published records of some stations have been found to be in error on the basis of data or information later obtained. Revisions of such records are usually pub­ lished along with the current records in one of the annual reports. In order to make it easier to find such revised records, a paragraph headed "Revisions (water years)" has been added to the description of all stations for which revised records have been published. Listed therein are all the reports in which revisions have been published, each followed by the water years for which figures are revised in that report. In listing the water years only one number is given; for instance, 1933 stands for the water year October 1, 1932 to September 30, 1933. If no daily, monthly, or annual figures of discharge are con­ cerned in the revision, that fact is brought out by notations after the year dates as follows: "(M)" means that only the instantaneous maximum discharge was revised; "(m)" that only the instantaneous minimum was revised; and "(P)" that only peak discharges were revised. If the drainage area has been revised, the report in which the revised figure was first published is given. It should be noted that for all stations for which cubic feet per second per square mile and runoff in inches are published, a revision of the drainage area necessitates corresponding revision of all figures based on the drainage area. Revised figures of cubic feet per second per square mile and runoff in inches resulting from a revision of the drainage area only are usually not published in the annual series of reports. Skeleton rating tables are published for all stations except those at which the daily discharge for the greater part of the open-water period was determined by the shifting- control method, the slope method, or other special methods involving an equivalent adjust­ ment to the gage height of more than one-tenth foot. Skeleton rating tables are generally not published for stations on canals. For stations equipped with water-stage recorders, except those on streams subject to sudden or rapid fluctuation, the daily table gives the discharge corresponding to the 6 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1958, PART 14 dally mean gage height. For stations subject to such fluctuation the daily mean gage height may not indicate the true daily mean discharge, which must be obtained by averag­ ing the discharge for parts of the day or by using the discharge integrator, an instrument for obtaining the daily mean discharge from a continuous gage-height graph and containing, as an essential element, a curve representing the stage-discharge relation at the station. For stations equipped with nonrecording gages, the table of daily discharge gives the dis­ charge corresponding to once-daily readings of the gage, or to the mean of twice-daily readings, or to the mean gage height determined from gage-height graphs based on gage readings. For periods of rapidly changing stage, the daily mean discharge is determined from gage-height graphs based on gage readings, the frequency of which is stated in the station description. In the table of daily discharge, the figures for the maximum day and the minimum day for each month are underlined. If the figure is repeated, it is underlined only on the first day of its occurrence. In the monthly summary below the daily table, the line headed "Total" gives the sum of the daily figures; it is the total cfs-days for the month. The line headed "Mean" gives the average flow in cubic feet per second during the month. Discharge for the month may be expressed in cubic feet per second per square mile (line headed "Cfsm"), or in inches (line headed "in."), or in acre-feet (line headed "Ac-ft"). Figures for cubic feet per second per square mile and runoff in inches are omitted if the drainage area includes large noncontributing areas, or if the average annual rainfall over the drainage basin is usually less than 20 inches. In the yearly summary below the monthly summary, the figures of maximum are the maxi­ mum daily discharges, not the momentary discharges when the water was at crest stage. Likewise, the minimums in this summary are the minimum daily discharges. Peak discharges and the times of their occurrence and corresponding gage heights of most stations are listed below the table of daily and monthly discharge. All independent peaks above the selected base are given. The base discharge, which is given in paren­ theses, is selected so that an average of about three peaks a year will be presented. Peak discharges are not published for canals, ditches, drains, or for any stream for which the peaks are subject to substantial control by man. Footnotes to the table of daily discharge indicate periods when discharge was computed or estimated by unusual or special methods during periods of no gage-height record and ice effect, or by other effects that reduce the degree of accuracy of the records. Days on which discharge measurements were made are indicated by asterisk and footnote unless they were made at frequent regular intervals, in which instance the general frequency of discharge measurements is given under "Remarks" in the station description. For most gaging stations on lakes and reservoirs the data presented comprise a descrip­ tion of the station and a monthly summary table of stage and contents. For some reser­ voirs a table showing daily contents or stage is given. A skeleton table of capacity at given stages is published each year for all reservoirs for which records are published on a daily basis, but is not published for reservoirs for which only monthly data are given. At many gaging stations water samples are collected from the streams for the purpose of making chemical analyses, computing dissolved solids, suspended sediment loads, and ACCURACY OP FIELD DATA AND COMPUTED RESULTS 7 particle-size distribution, or measuring water temperatures. For most of these samples the results are published in an annual series of water-supply papers entitled "Quality of Sur­ face Waters of the United States" which is issued in four volumes. In this report under "Remarks" a reference is made to quality-of-water records collected at gaging stations on a regular basis and published in the quality-of-water reports. At many other gaging sta­ tions quality-of-water data are obtained at irregular intervals and published as "miscel­ laneous analyses" in quality-of-water reports; such records are not referred to in "Remarks" paragraph in this report. At many gaging stations water temperature is obtained also at the time a discharge measurement is made; such temperature readings are not reported in the quality-of-water annual reports. Data collected at partial-record stations and at miscellaneous sites are given at the end of each report. Partial-record stations are presented in two tables. The first is a table of discharge measurements at low-flow partial-record stations, and the second is a table of annual maximum stage and discharge at crest-stage stations. Discharge measure­ ments at miscellaneous sites are given in a third table. Occasionally, a series of dis­ charge measurements are made within a short time period to investigate the seepage gains or losses along a reach of a stream or to determine the low-flow characteristics of an area. Such measurements are given in special tables after the list of measurements at miscellaneous sites.

ACCURACY OF FIELD DATA AHD COMPUTED RESULTS

The accuracy of streamflow data depends primarily on (1) the stability of the stage- discharge relation or, if the control is unstable, the frequency of discharge measurements, and (2) the accuracy of observations of stage, measurements of discharge, and interpre­ tation of records. The station description states the degree of accuracy of the records. "Excellent" indicates that, in general, the error in the daily records is believed to be less than 5 percent; "good," less than 10 percent; "fair," less than 15 percent; and "poor," prob­ ably more than 15 percent. The records of monthly and yearly mean discharge and runoff are, in general, more nearly accurate than the daily records. Discharge at some stations, as indicated by the monthly mean, may vary widely from natural runoff, owing to diversion, consumption, regulation by storage, increase or decrease in evaporation due to artificial causes, or to other factors. For such stations, figures of cubic feet per second per square mile and of runoff in inches are not pub­ lished unless satisfactory adjustments can be made for diversions, for changes in contents of reservoirs, or for other changes incident to use and control. Evaporation from a res­ ervoir is not included in the adjustments for changes in reservoir contents, unless it is so stated. Even at those stations where adjustments are made, large errors in computed runoff may occur when relatively large negative adjustments are made or when evaporation is large in comparison with the observed discharge. Many gaging stations on streams in the irrigated areas of the United States are situ­ ated above most of the diversions from those streams, and therefore the discharge recorded does not actually show the water supply available at the stations for further development, because water must first be supplied to existing irrigation systems.

Note. Records for all stations In Oregon through September 1910 are contained In WSP 37O, super­ seding all earlier reports for these stations. A compilation of records for the area covered by this report through September 1950 has been published as Water-Supply Paper 1318. That report contains a summary of monthly and annual discharges for all previously published records as well as some records-not con­ tained in the annual series of water-supply papers. All records were reexamined and revised where warranted. Estimates of discharge were made to fill short gaps whenever practical. The reports listed in the foregoing tables contain the customary records of discharge collected during the systematic operation of gaging stations. Detailed information on the stage and discharge of many streams during major floods has been included in special reports on these floods published by the Geological Survey. The more recent of these special reports also contain other pertinent hydrologic information and analyses and compilations of data relating to earlier notable floods.

HYDROLOGIC CONDITIONS

Runoff was generally above median in most of the area covered by this report during the water year. John Day River at Service Creek, Oreg. was record high for both February monthly and daily discharge, and the February monthly mean discharge of streams in the Walla Walla River, Willamette River, and Umpqua River basins ranked among the highest of record. Some flooding occurred Apr. 21-22 along McKay Creek and Umatilla River in the vicinity of Pendleton, but damage was relatively light. For the two key gaging stations in the area covered by this report, a comparison of monthly discharge during the 1958 water year with the median discharge for the 25-year period (1921-45) is shown below.

Springs in the Walla Walla River basin, Oreg.-Wash.

Ground-water overflow through many springs on the alluvial fan of the Walla Walla River near Milton-Preewater, Oreg., amounts to about 50,000 acre-ft a year. During the irriga­ tion season practically all the overflow is used to water crops on land not served by diversion from the river. A survey made in 1933 listed 57 springs or spring groups in the area, arranged in "inner," "intermediate," and "outer" zones concentric about the apex of the alluvial fan. 1 The inner zone is 3 to 3j miles below Milton-Preewater and extends from the vicinity of Nicholas Spring, which is about half a mile east of the Walla Walla River at McCoy Bridge, to springs in the vicinity of Dugger Creek. Within this zone are fully three-fourths of the springs in the Walla Walla River basin. The intermediate and outer zones, each of which contains only a few springs, are about 2 and 4 miles, respectively, beyond the inner zone. In order to bring about a more effective use of the available water supply through a better understanding of the relation between surface- and ground-water supplies in the basin, discharge measurements of each of the principal springs and measurements of ground- water levels in representative wells have been made and the results published periodi­ cally since 1932.

Principal diversions from Umatilla River between Yoakum and Umatilla gaging stations, Oreg.

The following canals divert water from Umatilla River between Yoakum and Umatilla: Furnish Canal, from right bank of Umatilla River in SWvSWtr sec. 31, T. 3 N., R. 30 E. Umatilla project feed canal, from right bank of Umatilla River in SWij sec. 22, T. 3 N., R. 29 E., to feed Cold Springs Reservoir of Bureau of Reclamation. Western Land Canal, from left bank of Umatilla River in NE^- sec. 21, T. 3 M., R. 29 E.; gage is 1 mile down­ stream from intake. Alien Canal, from right bank of Western Land Canal, half a mile downstream from headgate of that canal. Maxwell Canal, from right bank of Umatilla River in SW-f sec. 28, T. 4 N., R. 28 E.,; at times it receives water from Cold Springs Reservoir. West Division main canal, from left bank of Umatilla River in SW^ sec. 28, T. 5 N., R. 28 E. Water diverted by all of these canals is used for irrigation of lands on both sides of Umatilla River near and below Echo, except that diverted by West Division main canal, which is applied to land along Columbia River in vicinity of Irrigon. Several smaller canals also divert water between Yoakum and Umatilla, but no records for them were obtained. Records of monthly discharge of the canals, published as a group, are available from March 1926 to September 1958; records for some of the canals published separately prior to 1926. Revised figures of discharge for Maxwell Canal (water year 1921) and West Division main canal (water year 1923) published in WSP 1398.

Staff gage read daily Oct. 1 to Nov. 10, May 8 to Sept. 30, occasional readings Nov. 16 to May 4. Datum of gage is 4,400.0 ft above mean sea level (levels by Bureau of Reclamation). Gage read­ ings have been reduced to elevations above mean sea level. Maximum contents observed during year, 57,090 acre-ft Apr. 26 (elevation, 4,445.35 ft); minimum observed, 20,300 acre-ft Sept. 30 (elevation, 4,436.80 ft). Maximum contents observed during period 1922-58, 60,500 acre-ft June 5-7, 1943 (elevation, 4,446.0 ft); no usable contents at times. Reservoir is formed by earth dam completed by North Canal Co. in 1922; gates were first closed Nov. 22, 1922; reconstructed as rock-faced earth dam with concrete con­ trol works by Bureau of Reclamation in 1939-40. Capacity, 55,340 acre-ft between ele­ vations 4,424.0 (lip of fish screen structure) and 4,445.0 ft (crest of spillway). Natural flow passing through reservoir when outlet gates are open prevents withdrawal of storage to elevation of sill of gates. Water used for irrigation near Bend and Redmond.

Maximum contents observed during year, 76,400 acre-ft June 3 (elevation, 4,842.84 ft); minimum observed, 43,730 acre-ft Oct. 18 (elevation, 4,834.24 ft). Maximum contents observed during period 1922-58; 79,970 acre-ft Mar. 8, 1957 (elevation, 4,843.76 ft); minimum observed, 9,640 acre-ft Oct. 21, 1931 (eleva­ tion, 4,827.91 ft). Reservoir originally formed by dam of earth and logs completed in 1922, recon­ structed as earth-fill dam in 1956. Capacity. 117,200 acre-ft between elevations 4,821.5 (sill of outlet gate) and 4,853.0 ft (crest of spillway). Daad storage not known; records given herein represent usable contents. Water surface probably cannot be lowered below elevation 4,823.4 ft due to natural flow through reservoir.

Average discharge.--19 years, 560 cfs, adjusted for diversion to Coyote Creek since 1943 (405,400 acre-ft per year). Extremes. Maximum discharge during year, 4,200 cfs Dec. 30: minimum daily, 41 cfs Mar. 23. T939-58: Maximum discharge, 11,500 cfs Jan. 1, 1943 (gage height, 15.12 ft, site and datum then in use); minimum daily, 2 cfs Aug. 7, 1941. Remarks. Records good. A few small diversions above station. Records include diversion for irrigation and stockwater to Coyote Creek channel through 24-inch concrete pipe 600 ft long, record for which is based on daily staff-gage readings and occasional discharge measurements. The diversion is several hundred feet upstream and point of return to Long Tom River about 2| miles downstream. Fern Ridge Dam, 1,000 ft upstream from station, was completed in 1941, and has regulated flow since Nov. 13, 1941 (see preceding page). Discharge not adjusted for storage or release from Fern Ridge Dam as evaporation from reservoir at times exceeds natural flow and diversions, and beginning in November 1951 most of flow of Amazon Creek has been diverted in SEt sec. 29, T. 17 S., R. 4 W., and discharged into Fern Ridge Reservoir; drainage area at point of diversion, 21.3 sq mi.

Haskins Creek Reservoir.--Lat 45°18'40", long 123°21'15", in NW^ sec. 18, T. 3 S., R. 5 W., on control tower 250 ft upstream from dam on Haskins Creek and 11 miles north­ west of McMinnville. Drainage area, 7.1 sq mi, approximately. Records available, October 1951 to September 1958. Staff gage read once daily. Datum of gage is at mean sea level (levels by city of McMinnville). Maximum contents observed during year, 744 acre-ft Dec. 6, Apr. 22, 29 (elevation, 835.5 ft); reservoir empty Dec. 16-18, Dec. 21 to Mar. 30, Apr. 5. 6. Maximum contents observed during period 1951-58, 748 acre-ft Nov. 17, 1954 (elevation, 835.65 ft); reservoir empty most of time during winter months. Reservoir is formed by earth-fill dam equipped with 5 siphon spillways which act as overflow weirs until priming occurs (approximately 835.5 ft elevation). Capacity of reservoir is 733 acre-ft between elevations 761.5 (invert of outlet tunnel) and 835.0 ft (crest of siphon spillways). Rated capacity of three siphons is 700 cfs each and remaining two, 350 cfs each. Under normal operation, reservoir is filled in the spring (April or May) and drained when fall rains start. There is no planned storage during winter months; however, during periods of heavy runoff, inflow may be greater than capacity of outlet tunnel and there may be some temporary storage. Water is used for municipal supply of city of McMinnville. Timothy Lake.--Lat 45°06'50", long 121°48'35", in NE-j sec. 27, T. 5 S., R. 8 E., in intake structure 350 ft upstream from dam on Oak Grove Fork, 0.5 mile upstream from Anvil Creek, and 14 miles south of Government Camp. Drainage area, 53.5 sq mi. Rec­ ords available, May 1956 to September 1958. Prior to October 1957, published as Timothy Meadows Reservoir. Once-daily readings of Bristol pressure gage usually obtained by Three Lynx powerhouse personnel by microwave transmission. Datum of gage is at mean sea level (Portland General Electric Co. bench mark). Prior to Nov. 26, 1956, staff gage at same site and datum. Maximum contents observed during year, 66,820 acre-ft May 13, 14, 18-24, 27 (elevation, 3,190.8 ft); minimum observed, 39,920 acre-ft Dec. 18, 19 (elevation, 3,169.3 ft). Maximum contents observed during period 1956-58, that of May 13, 14. 18-24, 27, 1958; minimum observed, 16,010 acre-ft Feb. 24, 1957 (elevation, 3,144.5 ft). Reservoir is formed by earth-fill dam with concrete spillway built by Portland General Electric Co. Usable storage began May 28, 1956. Capacity, 65,710 acre-ft at elevation 3,190.0 ft (normal maximum operating level). Usable capacity, 61,650 acre-ft between elevations 3,125.0 (invert of outlet pipe) and 3,190.0 ft (top of taintor gates).

As the number of streams on which streamflow information is likely to be desired far exceeds the number of stream-gaging stations feasible to operate at one time, the Geolog­ ical Survey collects limited streamflow data at sites other than stream-gaging stations. When limited streamflow data are collected on a systematic basis over a period of years for use in hydrologic analyses, the site at which the data are collected is called a partial- record station. Data collected at these partial-record stations are usable in low-flow or flood-flow analyses, depending on the type of data collected. In addition, discharge measurements are made at other sites not included in the partial-record program. These measurements are generally made in times of drought or flood to give better areal coverage to those events. Those measurements and others collected for some special reason are called measurements at miscellaneous sites. Records collected at partial-record stations are generally presented in two tables. However, no records at low-flow partial-record stations are available for the 1958 water year. A table of annual maximum discharge at crest-stage stations is given first, followed by a table of measurements made at miscellaneous sites for both low flow and high flow.

Crest-stage partial-record stations

The following table contains annual maximum discharges for crest-stage stations. A crest-stage gage is a device which will register the peak stage occurring between inspec­ tions of the gage. A stage-discharge relation for each gage is developed from discharge measurements made by indirect measurements of peak flow or by current meter. The date of the maximum discharge is not always certain but is usually determined by comparison with nearby continuous-record stations, weather records, or local inquiry. Only the maximum discharge for each water year is given. Information on some lower floods may have been obtained but is not published herein. The years given in the period of record represent water years for which the annual maximum has been determined. The maximum discharge for each year since the crest-stage gage was established is given. The peak discharge for some years may have been published in a previous report as a measurement of discharge. Figures given herein supersede all previous figures of peak discharge for the floods listed.
