Westernport, Maryland was one of the hardest hit towns during the mid-May flooding in Western Maryland, where Georges Creek flooded an elementary school in Westernport, MD, prompting the emergency rescue of schoolchildren.
A.J. Greise
A.J. Greise is a Hydrologic Technician and has been with the U.S. Geological Survey since 2009, currently working at the MD-DE-DC Water Science Center in the Frostburg office.
A.J. began working with the USGS in 2009, when he was hired as a student intern for field data collection and general field work associated with all disciplines of work performed by the USGS. As time progressed, he began to focus his efforts more on surface water data collection, surface water data analysis, surface water data approval, and surface water data auditing. As time has progressed even more, A.J. has become more involved with the analysis of complex surface water systems and has begun teaching new technicians through various mentor roles and official USGS classes.
Research / Professional Focus / Current Projects
- DC StreamStats: Is a cooperative project between the USGS and the Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE) to improve Streamflow estimates on ungaged heavily urbanized basins within the District of Columbia, using flood frequency analysis and regression equations from gaged streams on the I-95 corridor. The project also includes the Washington D.C. Stormwater regional study area, within the USGS StreamStats application, which includes storm drain mapping for Washington, D.C.
- USGS Office of the Delaware River Master (ODRM): ODRM is the only regulatory branch of the U.S. Geological Survey, established by the Supreme Court of the United States to manage the flow on the Delaware River. ODRM utilizes real-time USGS stream gage data on the Delaware River basin to make real-time water management decisions in order to meet the flow requirements for the Delaware River set forth by the Supreme Court of the United States.

USGS on the Road - Measuring Icy Rivers
USGS is committed to monitoring water quality and quantity in all conditions, and sometimes that means walking out onto frozen rivers to make a measurement. In this episode, we join a team as they cut through the ice to safely access the water that still flows underneath.
