South Dakota District Office - FLOODING 2001This page is being maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to provide information to Federal, State, and local agencies and organizations involved in water-resource management dealing with the potential 2001 flooding problems along the James, Vermillion and Big Sioux River Basins. Click on the basin of interest to access near realtime river stages as well as other information from gages within that basin. The information is subject to revision and should be used accordingly. If there are any questions about the data, please contact the USGS Sub-District Office in Huron, SD phone 605-353-7176 ext 231 or ext 204 or the USGS District Office in Rapid City, SD, phone 605-355-4560 ext 222 or ext 220.
In 2001, the USGS operates about 125 stream-flow gaging stations throughout South Dakota in cooperation with Federal, State, and local agencies. Historic streamflow information is available for all of the 125 stations and near realtime data is available for selected stations on the USGS, Current Streamflow conditions for South Dakota, homepage. Other links of interest would be NWS flood forecasts and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers-Omaha.
