Cory E Angeroth
Cory is Acting Chief of the Hydrologic Instrumentation Facility and the Deputy Program Coordinator for the Groundwater and Streamflow Information Program which provides impartial, timely, rigorous, and relevant data for short- and long-term water decisions by stakeholders across the United States.
A former Director (2018-2021) and Surveillance Section Chief (2005-2018) of the Utah Water Science Center and Field Office Chief (2003-2005) of the Yuma, AZ, office, Cory has been involved in USGS data collection and science since 1995. He has led data and science programs and managed staff in Arizona and Utah. Cory has led data collection and research activities on Great Salt Lake (GSL), and was a member of several multi-agency technical teams related to GSL issues.

The western part of the conterminous United States is often thought of as being a desert without any large bodies of water. In the desert area of western Utah, however, lies Great Salt Lake, which in 1986, at its highest level, covered approximately 2,300 square miles and contained 30 million acre-feet of water (an acre-foot is the amount of water necessary to cover 1 acre of land with water 1...
Urban Waters Federal Partnership Cooperative Matching Funds Projects
The Urban Waters Federal Partnership reconnects urban communities with their waterways by improving coordination among federal agencies, particularly those communities that have been disproportionately impacted by pollution or economic distress. The UWFP draws upon Environmental Justice principles—the idea that all people, regardless of race, religion, national origin, or economic station, deserve...
Streamflow Information Program
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) operates and maintains a national network of about 8,000 streamgages (2018) to provide long-term, accurate, and unbiased streamflow information (often called discharge) to meet the multiple needs of many diverse users. Streamflow information is fundamental to national and local economic well-being, protection of life and property, and efficient and effective...
What is a streamgage?
Information on the flow of rivers and streams is a vital national asset that safeguuards lives, protects property, and ensures adequate water supplies for the future. The USGS operates a network of more than 9,000 streamgages nationwide with more than 150 in Utah, but how does a streamgage work? Dee Lurry of the Texas Water Science Center answers that question.
