Janet M Carter
I am a Bureau Approving Official (BAO) in the Office of Science Quality and Integrity (OSQI) within the Office of the Director.
I began working for the U.S. Geological Survey in 1990 as a student hydrologist. In 1994, I became a hydrologist with the South Dakota Water Science Center working in the Huron and Rapid City offices performing research on water quality and groundwater. I worked on many studies in South Dakota and several regional, national, and international studies. I also served as the report specialist for the South Dakota Water Science Center and other Centers within the USGS. In 2016, I became the Deputy Director for Studies for the then newly formed Dakota Water Science Center. In April 2019, I transitioned to a Bureau Approving Official with the Office of Science Quality and Integrity. I have authored or co-authored more than 50 scientific publications and thoroughly enjoyed working on all of them.

Hydrologic conditions and budgets for the Black Hills of South Dakota, through water year 1998
The Black Hills are an important recharge area for aquifers in the northern Great Plains. The surface-water hydrology of the area is highly influenced by interactions with the Madison and Minnelusa aquifers, including large springs and streamflow loss zones. Defining responses of ground water and streamflow to a variety of hydrogeologic influences is critical to development of hydrologic budgets f

Water resources of Mellette and Todd counties, South Dakota
Mellette and Todd Counties are located in south-central South Dakota and have a combined area of 2,694 square miles. The White River and its tributaries, which include the Little White River, drain Mellette County and about one-half of Todd County. Tributaries to the Niobrara River, which include the Keya Paha River, drain the other one-half of Todd County. The average discharge of the Little Whit
