Monitoring location 01573710 is associated with a Stream in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. Current conditions of Discharge, Gage height, Precipitation, and more are available. Water data back to 2011 are available online.
On November 14, 2018, the gage was relocated 0.3 miles upstream. Gage heights will be about 2.3 ft higher than before the gage was moved. Flow can be influenced from upstream operations. Conewago Lake in Mt Gretna can be drained to permit maintenance, inspection, and repair of the in-lake structure. The 15-minute precipitation data for this station are temporary and will only be displayed for 120 days. Time series of 1-hour or cumulative daily values will NOT be available for retrieval following the 120-day display period. Although the instrumentation is calibrated at least once a year, the temporary classification means that documented routine inspections and other quality assurance measures are not performed that would make the data acceptable for archival, retrieval, or future use in general scientific or interpretive studies.
