Proposed locations for expansion of the West Virginia streamgaging network

Description

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the West Virginia Water Gaging Council have proposed an expansion to the existing West Virginia streamgage network. As of December 18, 2018, the USGS operates a network of 149 real-time streamgages in West Virginia. This geospatial dataset provides the approximate locations of 39 proposed streamgages. These streamgages include 31 presently operated by the West Virginia Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management and 8 new streamgages. These streamgages may be relocated depending on access and stream conditions, and data users who need precise locations of these streamgages may contact the USGS office in Charleston, West Virginia.
