This is an information file for the file area "Stream WQ Data from USGS"

===============================================================================
UPDATED 7/94

TWO NEW STATIONS ADDED:

STATION 16200000, N F KAUKONAHUA STR AB RB NR WAHIAWA, OAHU, HI AND
STATION 16208000, S F KAUKONAHUA STR AT E PUMP RE WAHIAWA, OAHU, HI

FILE DESCRIPTION AND STATION INFORMATION ARE ALSO UPDATED

===============================================================================


In this file area, there are stream water quality data from 9 (11 AS OF 7/94)
USGS gaging stations from island of Oahu.

For each of the stations, water quality data are available in ASCII
delimited and dBase (dbf) format for the entire historical record upto 1991.
Each file is compressed into "ZIP" file to reduce download time.

Three files are zipped together for the "dbf" format:  1.  Field explanation
file in text format, 2.  Explanation of Parameter codes, and 3.  Data file.

The ASCII delimited files have informative headers before the data is
displayed.


Descriptions of the files are listed below, followed by station information.
