RECOMMENDATION The staffrecommends that the City Council approve the joint funding agreement and cost share payment of $16,235 to the USGS for three urban stream gauging stations in Fayetteville for the year 2005. BACKGROUND Since 1998, the City of Fayetteville has participated in a joint funding agreement with the USGS for three urban stream gauging stations. This agreement consists of a cost -share for maintenance and data collection for rainfall and runoff recording stations located at: Mud Creek Tributary at Township (in Gulley Park) Town Branch at State Highway 62 Town Branch at State Highway 16 (in Walker Park) The attached agreement is for the 2005 calendar year, and requires payment of $16,235 by the City and $7,705 by the USGS. DISCUSSION The USGS collects rainfall and runoff data at these three sites, and provides this information to the City. We are currently investigating the possibility of updating these stream stations to provide real-time data via an Internet portal, and also the possibility of adding water quality monitoring capabilities. In addition to providing urban rainfall and streamflow data for future drainage studies, these gauges will also provide valuable information for the EPA Phase 2 NPDES stormwater monitoring requirements.
