USGS 01388000 RAMAPO RIVER AT POMPTON LAKES NJ

 

PROVISIONAL DATA SUBJECT TO REVISION
 
 
 

National Weather Service flood stage for NEW GAGE downstream of Pompton Lakes dam is 9 feet. The downstream gage can not record a gage height less than 5.45 feet. The NEW downstream gage is presently operated for flood-warning purposes and water-quality monitoring.

The estimated flood stage at the OLD GAGE upstream of Pompton Lakes dam is 12.5 feet. The OLD GAGE located upstream of the dam provides the official records of discharge presented in the USGS annual water data reports.

Due to construction work water-quality readings are not being transmitted. Real-time discharges reported for this gage maybe somewhat in error due to construction work going on at the Pompton Lakes Dam.
