INTRODUCTION 



On May 16, 1996, as part of the Bureau of Reclamation's (Reclamation) Rincon Bayou Demonstration Project, 

 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) installed a stream flow gauging station on the head-water channel of Rincon 

 Bayou (Station 08211503, Rincon Bayou Channel Near CalaUen, Texas) located just downstream from the 

 Nueces River Overflow Channel (Figure 1). The purpose of this gauge was to record daily stage and discharge 

 through the overflow channel, and direct precipitation at the site during the demonstration period. Data from 

 the Rincon Gauge was available from the date of its installation (May 16, 1996) through December 31, 1999.
