Abstract

For additional information, contact: Director, Pennsylvania Water Science CenterU.S. Geological Survey 215 Limekiln Road New Cumberland, PA 17070 Water resources data for the 1992 water year for Pennsylvania consist of records of discharge and water quality of streams; contents and elevations of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground-water wells. This report, Volume 2, includes records from the Susquehanna and Potomac River basins. Specifically, it contains (1) discharge records for 85 continuous-record streamflow-gaging stations and 38 partial-record stations; (2) elevation and contents records for 13 lakes and reservoirs; (3) water-quality records for 12 streamflow-gaging stations and 48 ungaged streamsites; and (4) water-level records for 25 observation wells. The location of these sites is shown in the figures. Additional water data collected at various sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program are also presented. These data together with the data in Volumes 1 and 3, represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State, local, and Federal agencies in Pennsylvania.
