Water-Data Reports:

Each year, the USGS produces a series of Water Data Reports for Florida, which include records of stream discharge and stage, lake elevations, ground water levels, and water quality data from measurements and samples taken throughout the year. Water data years run from October 1 through September 30. The reports are produced as Volumes 1-4,
based upon the portion of Florida included in the Volume. Volumes 1-3 are each split into Volume A (Surface Water) and B (Ground water), but Volume 4 (Northwest Florida) includes both surface- and ground-water data in one volume.
