Water Resources of Oklahoma

Welcome to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Web page for the water resources of Oklahoma; this is your direct link to a resource of diversified water information. Here you'll find information on Oklahoma's rivers and streams. You'll also find information about ground water, water quality, and many other topics. The USGS operates the most extensive satellite network of stream-gaging stations in the state, many of which form the backbone of flood-warning systems...

The USGS provides current ("real-time") stream stage and streamflow, water-quality, and ground-water levels for approximately 200 sites in Oklahoma.
