Have You Ever Wondered What A New Concrete Stilling Well [stream gauge] Looked Like?
--
H/T Roy Socolow, USGS
"While doing research on the USGS stream gaging program for a local presentation, [he] found this beautiful image of a classic stilling well from the Kentucky archives. Intakes and valve stems in perfect condition, hand pump and flush tank ready to fill, no kerosene or funky well water smell, and the clock weights on the Stevens recorder have plenty of travel room. Makes them] think of the good old days climbing down well ladders to “muck out” wells. Many of these “tanks” of instrument shelters still exist with either working intakes or as converted bubble gages. Many others have been decommissioned due to safety issues (falling or confined space hazards). Thanks to the men of the #CCC and #WPA..."
