Body

SUMMARY:

USGS is proposing an additional one-year joint funding agreement on the stream gage on the Obed River at Adams Bridge.  The cost would be split with USGS paying $6,541 and the City paying $8,059.  This stream gage is vital to the City of Crossville for water quality monitoring.  The gage collects real-time water quality data, including temperature, pH, velocity and turbidity.  These indicators are extremely useful for quantifying water quality improvements by the City of Crossville and its MS-4 Stormwater Program.
