Summary

This tabular data set contains decadal information on dams compiled for two spatial components of the NHDPlus version 2 data suite (NHDPlusv2) for the conterminous United States; 1) individual reach catchments and 2) reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network. This dataset can be linked to the NHDPlus version 2 data suite by the unique identifier COMID. The source data for dam information was produced by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The information provided here contains the number of dams (both major and minor), dam storage (acre feet) and decade of construction compiled as described above. Reach catchment information characterizes data at the local scale. Reach catchments accumulated upstream through [...]

Purpose

This data set was created by the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) National Water-Quality Assessment Project (NAWQA) which is part of the USGS National Water Quality Program (NWQP). This effort was undertaken to provide information on the number of dams (both major and minor), dam storage (acre feet) and decade of construction for NHDPlusV2 flowline catchments and upstream river networks to support statistical analysis, map display, and model parameterization.
