Water resources data for the 1987 water year for Iowa consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; ground water levels and water quality of ground-water wells. This report contains records of water discharge for 112 stream-gaging stations; stage or j contents for 8 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 8 stream-gaging stations; sediment! records for 10 stream-gaging stations; water levels for 112 observation wells; and chemical analyses for 197 municipal wells. Also included are 113 crest-stage partial record stations. Additional water data were collected at various sites, not part of the systematic data-collection program, and are published as miscellaneous measurements and analyses. These data represent that part of the National Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in Iowa.
