Abstract:
North Carolina has a network of seventy-seven continuous-record stream gages operated by the United States Geological Survey. These gages collect real-time data to help the state to respond to floods and manage water-supply systems during droughts. Currently, there are concerns about funding to maintain the network and to offset increasing maintenance costs.
