MonitoringLocationDescriptionText This stream gage site, installed and maintained by the USGS, is located on the Salt River 0.8 km downstream from Clarence Cannon Dam at bridge site on Route A in Ralls County, MO, approximately 3 km W of State Highway H. The general legal description is NW ¼ SE ¼ SE ¼ sec. 4, T. 55 N, R. 6 W in Ralls County, MO. USGS site ID is 05507800. Collection site has been moved: Outfall sample was gathered at site of the Reregulation Dam, just downstream from Clarence Cannon Dam, and just prior to the Salt River Bridge on Route A. That site was washed out due to severe flooding, so Outfall grab sample has since been obtained from Route A bridge. Since 2005, CSWQRU collects grab samples for water quality analysis. Methods used: CSWQ_FM04.1 - Automated Surface Water Sampling CSWQ_FM05 - Manual Surface Water Sampling CSWQ_FM09_USGS/e - Water Level Measurement obtained from USGS CSWQ_WQ* - Herbicide, nutrient, and sediment analyses
