Investigations are under the general direction of Trigg Twichell, District Chief, Water Resources Division. The Texas District Office is located in the Federal Building, 300 East 8th Street, Austin, Texas 78701. Copies of basic data prior to publication and other unpublished records may be obtained upon request. Information regarding provisional records of discharge prior to publication and other hydrologic data collected within their respective areas may also be obtained from any of the five subdistrict offices located in Fort Worth, Houston, San Angelo, San Antonio, and Wichita Falls. Requests for information from subdistrict offices should be directed to the following: J. H. Montgomery, Subdistrict Chief R. E.

Joerns, Subdistrict Chief U.S. Geo 1ogi ca 1 Survey~ WRD 318-320A Federal Building Wichita Falls, Texas 76301 This index shows the station number and name, type of record collected, and the office at which the basic data are permanently filed. A permanent numerical designation for ~aging stations has been adopted on a nationwide basis; stations are numbered and listed in downstream order. In this report, in a downstream direction along the main stem, all stations on a tribu­ tary entering above a main-stem station are listed before that station. A tributary entering between two main-stem stations 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 an immediate tributary, each indention in the listing of gaging stations represents one rank. This down­ stream order and system of indention show which gaging stations are on tributaries between any two stations on a main stem and the rank of the tributary on which each gaging station is sit­ uated. As of October 1, 1970, 481 streamflow, 75 reservoir-content, 14 stage, 113 low-flow partial-record, 192 crest-stage partial-record, 3 miscellaneous, 107 chemical quality, 25 continuous recording water-quality, 92 periodic chemical-quality, 133 periodic organic quality, 111 pesticides, 10 sediment, 26 periodic sediment, and 53 reservoir inventory stations were in operation. -1- At each STREAMFLOW STATION a permanent gage is maintained from which a daily record of stage is obtained. Actual measurements of discharge are made to develop stage-discharge re~ation curve. Discharge records showing the mean daily discharge in cubic feet per second, peak dls­ charges for the major floods of each year, and total monthly and yearly runoff expressed in acre­ feet, are computed from basic hydrologic data on the basis of the water year ending September 30. At each RESERVOIR-CONTENT STATION the data consist of a description of the station and a monthly summary table of stage and contents. For some reservoirs a table showing daily contents is given. PARTIAL-RECORD STATION. As the number of streams on which streamflow information is likely to be desired far exceeds the number of streamflow stations feasible to operate at one time, the Geological Survey collects limited streamflow data at sites other than streamflow sta­ tions. 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. There are two kinds of partial-record stations: (1) Those operated for the pur­ pose of defining annual minimum discharges, low-flow partial-record stations; and ·.(2) those oper­ ated for the purpose of defining annual maximum discharges, crest-stage partial-record stations. At each CHEMICAL-QUALITY STATION samples are collected for analysis. At most stations, daily samples are collected and the temperature is measured. At daily stations where discharge records are available, discharge-weighted average concentrations of the chemical constituents are computed for each water year·. At each PERIODIC CHEMICAL-QUALITY STATION a sample for chemical analysis is collected at about one-month intervals. An attempt is made to collect samples over as wide a range in discharge as possible. Periodic chemical-quality stations are operated in conjunction with a streamflow sta­ tion or a partial-record station. At PERIODIC ORGANIC QUALITY STATIONS from 6 to 12 samples per year are collected for analysis. The analysis includes biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate (N03), phosphate (P04), and pH. At many of the stations all the above determinations are made and many of the stations are at daily chemical-quality stations. At PESTICIDE STATIONS samples are collected from 4 to 12 times per year for analysis. Bottom deposit samples are collected at selected stations for pesticide analysis 4 times a year. SEDIMENT STATIONS are maintained to determine the quantity of sediment transported by streams. Samples are collected on a daily, weekly, or periodic schedule for determinations of suspended load, particle-size distribution of suspended load and bed material, or unmeasured­ sediment discharge. In addition to streamflow information collected at the regular gaging stations and the partial-record stations, measurements of flow and chemical quality-of-water data have been col­ lected for specific purposes at various other locations in the State. Many of these measurements show the peak discharge for the greatest flood that has been known to occur at that site. Others show minimum flows or channel losses experienced in various streams. Water-supply papers, circulars, and other reports containing special detailed information on flood discharges, rainfall intensities, hydrology of small watersheds and other related data, have been prepared by the Geological Survey. In addition to published reports, records not yet published and file copies of special reports covering floods and other special investigations are available for consultation at the district and subdistrict offices of the Geological Survey in Texas. -2- Table 1.--Streamflow, quality, and reservoir-content stations.

    Appendix A 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) As required under Sections 303(d) and 304(a) of the federal Clean Water Act, this list identifies the water bodies in or bordering Texas for which effluent limitations are not stringent enough to implement water quality standards, and for which the associated pollutants are suitable for measurement by maximum daily load. In addition, the TCEQ also develops a schedule identifying Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) that will be initiated in the next two years for priority impaired waters. Issuance of permits to discharge into 303(d)-listed water bodies is described in the TCEQ regulatory guidance document Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (January 2003, RG-194). Impairments are limited to the geographic area described by the Assessment Unit and identified with a six or seven-digit AU_ID. A TMDL for each impaired parameter will be developed to allocate pollutant loads from contributing sources that affect the parameter of concern in each Assessment Unit. The TMDL will be identified and counted using a six or seven-digit AU_ID. Water Quality permits that are issued before a TMDL is approved will not increase pollutant loading that would contribute to the impairment identified for the Assessment Unit. Explanation of Column Headings SegID and Name: The unique identifier (SegID), segment name, and location of the water body. The SegID may be one of two types of numbers. The first type is a classified segment number (4 digits, e.g., 0218), as defined in Appendix A of the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS).
