2000 Water Year Data Collection Sites
This table lists the active data collection sites in Washington
operated by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in conjunction with
USGS cooperators for investigations into the water resources of
the study area(s). Most of these stations are operated for a few
years or less, for the duration of the study.
Sites are operated for realtime, continuous, routine or intermittent
data collection. The category of data collected at each site are
listed in the table (see footnotes for description). The data are
available from the USGS Public Information Officer.

Notes And Description:
The sites listed in this table are of several types:
- Active realtime data-collection sites are sites with Data Collection
Platforms (DCP) for satellite telemetry using the Geostationary Orbiting
Environmental Satellite (GOES) operated by the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Environmental Satellite
Distributed Information Service (NESDIS); these are designated by the
RS abbreviation.
- Active DCP sites, see (1) above, where data are made available directly
to selected cooperators in realtime are designated by the DR abbreviation.
- Active continuous or discrete data-collection sites operated in Washington
or Oregon by USGS Washington Water Science Center Field Offices (Pasco, Spokane, and
Tacoma) under the cooperative programs; these are designated by the Field
Office abbreviation PAS, SPO, and TAC, respectively.
- Active continuous data-collection sites operated by other WRD Offices
(Portland, Oregon and Cascade Volcano Observatory, Vancouver) in the state
of Washington for the USGS Washington Water Science Center or the Regional Research Office;
these are designated by the Office abbreviation POR and CVO, respectively.
- Active continuous data-collection sites operated by Washington District
Investigations Section for analytical and interpretative purposes asso-
ciated with projects; these are designated by the respective project
abbreviation ICE or INV.
