Water Data for the Nation inventory

Monitoring location 01483700 is associated with a Stream in Kent County, Delaware. Current conditions of Discharge, Gage height, Specific conductance, and more are available. Water data back to 1958 are available online.

LOCATION.-- On left bank 150 ft upstream from Division Street Bridge in Dover, 1,950 ft downstream from Silver Lake, and 12.5 mi upstream from mouth. PERIOD OF RECORD.-- January 1958 to current year. REMARKS.-- Flow affected by Silver Lake. Flow frequently affected by tide and wind. Storm tides increase stream water levels at the gage. Stage values reported are believed to be reasonably accurate, but the higher stage readings may produce estimates of discharge that are higher than actual. PERIOD OF RECORD (Water Quality).-- WATER TEMPERATURE: April 2021 to current year. SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE: April 2021 to current year. INSTRUMENTATION (Water Quality).-- Multi-parameter water-quality monitor, April 2021 to current year. REMARKS (Water Quality).-- Missing data due to equipment malfunction.
