	“Streamflow data collected by various agencies describe the flow characteristics of a stream at a given point. Normally, data are collected by using a measuring device commonly called a stream gage. Stream flow data are used to indicate the present hydrologic conditions and the discharge amounts of a watershed and to check methods for estimating present and future conditions. Specific uses of streamflow data, presented in 210-NEH, Part 630, Chapter 9, are for determining hydrologic soil-cover complex numbers, frequency analysis (chapter 18), determining water yields (Chapter 20), and designing floodwater retarding structures (Chapter 21).”<ref name="P630C5">[[National Engineering Handbook: Chapter 5 - Streamflow Data \| National Engineering Handbook: Chapter 5 - Streamflow Data, NRCS, 2020]]</ref>		“Streamflow data collected by various agencies describe the flow characteristics of a stream at a given point.
