USGS Water Use Data for the Nation - National Water Information System (NWIS)
Description
The U.S. Geological Survey's National Water-Use Information Program is
responsible for compiling and disseminating the nation's water-use data.
The USGS works in cooperation with local, State, and Federal environmental
agencies to collect water-use information. USGS compiles these data to
produce water-use information aggregated at the county, state, and national
levels. Every five years, data at the county level are compiled into a national
water-use data system and state-level data are published in a national circular.
Over the history of these circulars, the water-use categories have had some
changes.
