Abstract

Through cooperative agreements with the water-resources branch of the United States Geological Survey, the Iowa Geological Survey in association with other interested Federal and State departments, institutions, groups, and individuals, has been gathering considerable quantities of basic data regarding the surface and underground water supplies of this State. In order that such data may be made useful as they accumulate, a new series of water-supply bulletins was started in 1942 with the publication of No. 1 entitled "Summaries of Yearly and Flood Flow Relating to Iowa Streams" prepared under the direction of Lawrence C. Crawford, district engineer in charge of stream and lake gaging in "Iowa. Carrying out the original policy of publishing one or more such bulletins a year, a second paper, also prepared under the direction of Mr. Crawford, is published herein as Water-Supply Bulletin No. 2. Specific acknowledgment is given in the body of the bulletin for the cooperation of others outside the Federal and State Geological Survey.
