Site information from 2007 Data Report:

USGS STATION NUMBER.-- USGS 261735080534001

LOCATION.-- Lat 26°18'09", long 80°53'35" referenced to North American Datum of 1927, in NW 1/4 NE 1/4 NW 1/4 sec.24, T.48 S., R.34 E., Hendry County, FL, Hydrologic Unit 03090202, 35 ft south of County Road 833, 0.75 mi west of the Broward County line and 5.2 mi east of the Big Cypress Forest Office.

AQUIFER.-- Tamiami formation, limestone aquifer of the Pliocene Age, Geologic Unit 121 TMIM.

WELL CHARACTERISTICS.-- Depth 70 ft. Upper casing diameter 4 in.; top of first opening 37 ft, bottom of last opening 70 ft.

DATUM.-- Top of shelf, 17.96 ft above National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929, Jan. 24, 1994, to present

PERIOD OF RECORD.-- September 1977 to November 1977 (monthly), December 1977 to September 1983 (daily), November 1985 to September 1994 (monthly), October 1994 to July 1995 (quarterly), May 2001 to current year.

REMARKS.-- Measuring point elevations prior to October 1988 are based on a land-surface elevation estimated from a topographic map. The figures of water level as elevation, in feet NGVD, prior to September 1987 are in error. A -0.58 ft correction is required to correct the water-level data. See DATUM. Records of water levels prior to October 1985 are available in files of the U.S. Geological Survey. Station reconstructed January 25, 1994.

EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD.-- Highest daily maximum water level, 15.75 ft NGVD, Aug. 24, 25, 1978 (present datum); lowest, 6.94 ft NGVD, May 31, 1981 (present datum).

Current 30-day hydrograph at HE - 861 (261735080534001)

Graph: Continuously recorded water levels for the past 30 days are compared to daily (maximum) water levels from last year, the minimum and maximum daily levels for the corresponding weeks of the year for the site period of record, and daily levels for the 2001 drought year..

Long-term trend information

The change in daily water-level elevations has not been mathematically correlated to time for the period of record based on operational considerations. Instead of a long-term trend line, the data are, therefore, compared to the zero-slope (flat, linear) regression curve for the existing period of record daily water-level elevations. This approximates, but may not equal, the period of record mean. (Description of statistical methods)
