This report presents information on station-type activities for acquiring surface-water, ground-water, and quality of water data in the Delaware River basin. The information was collected in 1966 through field offices of the Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey as part of a pilot study for the Office of Water Data Coordination.
The cooperation and assistance of various Federal, state, and local agencies (table 1) whose activities are listed is acknowledged with appreciation. No attempt was made during the pilot study to inventory data collected by private industries, but information was available for a number of them. This information is included in the report as an example of the extensive data-collection effort by private groups in the Delaware River basin.
