USGS 01524500 CANISTEO R BELOW CANACADEA CR @ HORNELL NY

 

PROVISIONAL DATA SUBJECT TO REVISION
 
 
  LOCATION.--Lat 42°18'50", long 77°39'05", Steuben County, Hydrologic Unit 02050104, on right bank 235 ft upstream from Erie Railroad bridge in Hornell, 0.3 mi upstream from Crosby Creek, and 1.5 mi downstream from Canacadea Creek.
DRAINAGE AREA.--158 mi2.
PERIOD OF RECORD.--August 1942 to current year.>REVISED RECORD--WDR NY-86-3: 1971 (including minimum daily).
GAGE.--Water-stage recorder and concrete contro. Datum of gage is 1,131.32 ft above sea level.
REMARKS.--Records good except those for estimated daily discharges, which are fair. Diversion from Carrington Creek, a tributary upstream from station, by City of Hornell for municipal supply (1999 average 3.5 ft3/s); effluent from wastewater treatment plant enters river downstream from gage. Since Nov. 1939, flood flows regulated by Arkport Reservoir (see station 01521000), and, since October 1948, by Almond Lake (see station 01523000); normal regulation occasionally sufficient to affect figures of monthly runoff. Telephone and satellite gage-height telemeters at station. Several measurements of water temperature were made during the year.
COOPERATION.--Records of diversion from Carrington Creek furnished by City of Hornell.
