ABSTRACT

Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at 397 sewage-treatment plants and 1^3 industrial plants in 30 river basins are presented in this report. The low-flow characteristics are the annual minimum 7-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 2 years ($7,2) an<l the annual minimum 7-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 10 years (GL, Q ).

The low-flow characteristics at most sewage-treatment and industrial plants (project stations) were determined by correlating base-flow measure­ ments at the project stations with the concurrent daily mean flow at continuous-record gaging stations in the area. The Q7 9 2 and ^7,10 discharges determined by a frequency analysis at the continuous-record gaging stations were used to estimate the Q7,2 an<l Q7,10 a"t the project stations. For some project stations the low-flow characteristics also were determined by frequency analysis at nearby continuous-record gaging stations or correlation analysis at nearby low-flow partial-record stations. The Q7 2 values ranged from 0 to 3,770 ft3/s and Q7 9 io values ranged from 0 £o 2,790 ft3/s.

The accuracy of the estimated low-flow characteristics is evaluated according to the type and amount of data used to determine the low-flow characteristics. The accuracy determined by the standard error of estimate for the 10-year low flow (STZj IQ) ranged from an average of 18 percent at continuous-record gaging stations to an average of h6 percent when only three base-flow measurements were available.

INTRODUCTION

Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at sewage-treatment and industrial plants are needed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to implement water-quality standards for all surface waters of the State. The implementation requires that the sewage effluent from all waste sources has to be evaluated in relation to the low-flow characteristics of the receiving stream. Water-quality standards in Wisconsin are based on the annual minimum 7-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 10 years (CL, ).

The purpose of this report is to describe the low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at sewage-treatment and industrial plants. This report contains estimates of the Q7 9io along with estimates of the annual minimum 7-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 2 years (GL, ? ) at sites in 30 basins in Wisconsin (fig. l).

The report includes: estimates of the magnitude and frequency of recurrence of low flow for sites where streamflow data have been collected, low-flow discharge measurements at these sites, an explanation of methods used to determine the low-flow characteristics, and average standard error of estimates based on methods used to determine the low-flow characteristics.

This study was done in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. This is the final report in the series and low-flow estimates in tables 1-30 supersede earlier estimates by Gebert and Holmstrom (197 1*) and Holmstrom (1977).

For the convenience of readers who may want to use the International System of Units, the data presented in the tables may be converted from inch/pound units by using the following factors:

LOW-FLOW CHARACTERISTICS

The estimated low-flow characteristics at 397 sewage-treatment plants and Ih3 industrial plants are listed in tables- 1-30. Information included in the tables for each station are project station number; station location; drainage area; measured discharge; and accuracy level of the estimated low- flow characteristics. The station number is based on the number assigned by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in reports on pollution- investigation surveys for each basin. The number used in the DNR reports

has been modified by the addition of a letter before each number to help identify the basin. The Department of Natural Resources could change the station number when the reports are updated; therefore, the year of the report using these numbers is shown in each table.

Alternate measuring sites were selected at stations where the stream was dry or ponded. Measurements were obtained at a downstream location if it appeared that substantial natural inflow had entered the stream. When the sewage-treatment or industrial plant discharged effluent into a ponded stream or into a dry streambedj measurements for both the sewage-treatment or industrial plant station and the alternate site were included in the table.

ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES

The low-flow characteristics in tables 1-30 were determined by three methods of analyses. These methods depended on the type of data available at or near the project station. The 3 basic types of data available are:(1) continuous record of daily streamflow (continuous-record gaging stations);(2) 7 to 36 base-flow discharge measurements (low-flow partial-record stations); (3) 3 to 11 base-flow discharge measurements (project stations). A description of the analysis for the types of stations follows.

GAGING STATIONS

Where a sewage-treatment or industrial plant was located close to a continuous-record gaging station, the low-flow characteristics determined at the gaging station were used for the site at the sewage-treatment or industrial plant.

The low-flow characteristics at gaging stations were determined by a frequency analysis of the recorded 7-day annual minimum flows using a log- Pearson Type III probability distribution or a plotting position analysis (Riggs, 1972). If the results of the two analyses were substantially different, the plotting position analysis was used to determine the Qf 2 and Qj ]_Q discharge. All the available data for the gaging station through the 19?5 water year were used for this analysis.

LOW-FLOW PARTIAL-RECORD STATIONS

Where a sewage-treatment or industrial plant was located near a low- flow partial-record station, the low-flow characteristics determined for the partial-record station were used at the station. The low-flow character­ istics at the station were determined from a relation line established by correlating 7 to 36 base-flow discharge measurements at these stations with the concurrent discharge at continuous-record gaging stations in the area (Gebert, 1971). The Qy 9 2 an^- ^7 10 a* the continuous-record gaging stations were then transferred through the relation line to estimate Q? ~ and Q? for the partial-record station. '' ''

PROJECT STATIONS

Most of the estimated low-flow characteristics listed in this report are based on 3 to 11 base-flow measurements at each project station. The base-flow measurements at these sites were correlated with concurrent daily mean flow at continuous-record gaging stations in the area. The slope of the relation line was compared to the established relation line at nearby low-flow partial-record stations and other project stations for uniformity. If the factors that largely influence low flow are uniform in the area, the relation lines should have the same slope. If the relation line at the project station was defined by discharge measurements having significant scatter, the relation line was adjusted to agree more closely with the better established relation line at the low-flow partial-record station.

The Qj 2 an(i QT 10 discharges, determined by a frequency analysis at the continuous-record gaging stations, were then transferred through the relation line to estimate the Q7,2 and §7,10 a-t *^e project station. Figure 2 illustrates this method of correlation. The frequency analyses at the gaging stations included the entire period of record at each station through the 1975 water year.

ACCURACY

The Q7 9 2 an<* ^7 10 values in tables 1-30 are estimates of flow expected in the future. The estimates are based on data collected at each site and analyzed by several methods. Each estimate has an error associated with it, dependent on the amount and kind of data and on the analytical method. The two major sources of error in the estimates are the time-sampling error in collecting the data and the error in the analytical method.

The accuracy associated with different methods used to develop the low-flow estimates is shown in table 31. The accuracy is determined by the standard error of estimate for the 10-year low-flow event (SE7 9 io). The estimated low-flow characteristics are within the SE7 9io 67 percent of the time and twice the ££7 IQ 95 percent of the time. An explanation of how the accuracy was determined for each method follows.

GAGING STATIONS

The accuracy for low-flow characteristics determined from recorded discharge at continuous-record gaging stations was determined according to Hardison (1969). By analyzing all the gaging-station records in Wisconsin, with the assumption that 10 years of record were available at each site, an SE7 10 °f 18 percent was determined. This indicates the relative accuracy level associated with sewage-treatment plants that used gaging-station data to define the low-flow characteristics. An accuracy level indicated by the letter "a" appears in tables 1-30 following the low-flow characteristics that have this degree of accuracy.

LOW-FLOW PARTIAL-RECORD STATIONS

The accuracy of low-flow characteristics at low-flow partial-record stations can be appraised by a method outlined by Hardison and Moss (1972). Using this procedure an average SEf IQ of 29 percent was determined for 282 low-flow partial-record stations. This SEy^o is assumed to be typical of the accuracy for project stations where the low-flow characteristics were determined by use of low-flow partial-record station data. Low-flow characteristics in tables 1-30 determined by this method have an accuracy level indicated by the letter "b".

PROJECT STATIONS

The accuracy of the low- flow characteristics at project stations cannot be appraised directly. Therefore, the data collected at low-flow partial-record stations were analyzed to approximate the accuracy associated with the low-flow characteristics based on only three base-flow measurements.

Gebert and Holmstrom (197*0 found that an SEf ̂ Q of *^5 percent should be obtained at the project stations based on correlations using three discharge measurements. However, due to poor measuring conditions during the data-collection period, an SEf s io of TO percent was obtained for the $7,10 estimates for project stations given in the 197*+ report (Gebert and Holmstrom, 197*0.

The SEf^iQ for the project stations was improved with additional discharge measurements made during good base-flow conditions. Using an analysis similar to that used by Gebert and Hoimstrom ( 197*0 » 99 low-flow partial-record stations were measured during the same period that streams at project stations were being measured. Estimates of Qf IQ we**e determined from these discharge measurements using the same procedure used for the project stations. The estimated Qf IQ values were plotted against the $7,10 values based on 9 to 3** discharge measurements. From this relationship the standard error between the two estimates was determined. The overall SEf 9 io was then approximated by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the SEf slQ of the plotted relationship and the SE^io determined for the 99 low-flow partial-record stations used in the analysis. This resulted in an SE-j^io of k6 percent which is approximately the same as the *^5 percent determined by Gebert and Hoimstrom (197*0. Low-flow character­ istics in tables 1-30 determined by this method have an accuracy level indicated by the letter "c".

The accuracy of the low-flow characteristics also differs for different areas of the State. To illustrate this difference in accuracy, values of SE7,10 are listed for Wisconsin basins in table 32. These values of SE^io were determined at low- flow partial-record stations and were based on 7 to 36 base-flow measurements during the 1961-77 period. These values at low-flow partial-record stations are probably lower than the SEf 5iQ associated with low- flow characteristics at the project stations. However, they can be used as a guide to evaluate the relative accuracy of Qf ^Q estimates at project stations for various basins. For example, the SEy^o at low-flow partial-record stations in the Trempealeau-Buffalo River basin is 10 percent. This is considerably lower than the average SBf IQ of 29 percent for all river basins in the State. Therefore, the SE^io for Project stations in the Trempealeau-Buffalo River basin probably is considerably less than the SE7,10 of ^6 percent determined as the average for the project stations.
