Summary

Reliable peak-streamflow information is critical for proper design of stream-related infrastructure, such as bridges, and StreamStats provides a user-friendly interface to estimate peak flows (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/). StreamStats develops these peak-flow estimates using basin characteristics for the entire contributing area to a user-selected point; however, infrastructure planners often need to estimate flows for an area downstream from a known control such as a reservoir release or a weir. This dataset was compiled in cooperation with the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) to provide a Geographic Information Systems layer of filtered regulation points from the National Inventory of Dams and StreamStats-derived [...]

Purpose

These data were compiled for use within the South Carolina StreamStats application. These data provide point locations where regulation occurs on streams in South Carolina and adjacent states so that the South Carolina StreamStats application might be able to calculate basin characteristics for areas upstream from a user-selected location.
