Water-resources data for the 2002 water year for Nevada consists of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; precipitation; and water levels in wells. This report contains discharge records for 175 streamflow-gaging stations on streams, canals and drains; Discharge data for 95 partial record stations and miscellaneous sites, and 16 springs; stage and contents records for 20 ponds, lakes and reservoirs; Water levels for 128 primary observation wells, and 818 secondary observation wells; Water-quality data for 120 streams, canal, spring and drain sites and 174 wells; precipitation totals for 38 stations; and water withdrawals for 11 wells.
