USGS 04240300 NINEMILE CREEK AT LAKELAND NY

 

PROVISIONAL DATA SUBJECT TO REVISION
 
 
  LOCATION.--Lat 43°04'51", long 76°13'36", Onondaga County, Hydrologic Unit 04140201, on left bank 30 ft downstream from bridge on State Highway 48, 0.6 mi downstream from Geddes Brook, and 0.7 mi upstream from mouth.
DRAINAGE AREA.--115 mi2.
PERIOD OF RECORD.--Occasional measurements, water years 1959-70. November 1970 to September 1973, July 1975 to current year.
REVISED RECORDS.--WDR NY-83-3: 1972 (M), 1976 (M), 1979 (M), 1982 (M). WRD NY 1997: 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981.
GAGE.--Water-stage recorder and crest-stage gage. Datum of gage is 360.67 ft above sea level.
REMARKS.--Records fair except those for estimated daily discharges, which are poor. Flow regulated by Otisco Lake from which water is diverted by Onondaga County Water Authority for water supply. Flow affected by backwater from Onondaga Lake whenever lake level exceeds about 362 ft msl. High lake levels affected the entire 2000 water year. Estimated water-discharge data is based on records for Ninemile Creek at Camillus (04240200) (not published) and Onondaga Lake at Liverpool (04240495). Telephone and satellite gage-height telemeters at station. Several measurements of water temperature were made during the year.
