    • Water-quality and preceding precipitation data for low-flow and storm-event samples collected in Johnson County, Kansas, from January 2015 through November 2018

    Metadata Updated: January 21, 2026

    This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Data Release provides selected discretely measured water-quality data collected from 27 monitoring sites in Johnson County, Kansas, during January 2015 through November 2018. Water-quality samples were analyzed for nutrients, Escherichia coli bacteria, total suspended solids, suspended-sediment concentration, and chlorophyll as part of a study to assess the water-quality program for total maximum daily loads in Johnson County, Kansas. Samples were analyzed by the Johnson County Environmental Lab, Johnson County, Kansas, USGS National Water Quality Laboratory, Lakewood, Colorado, and USGS Kansas Water Science Center, Lawrence, Kansas. Preceding 24-hour precipitation values were compiled from the StormWatch website (https://www.stormwatch.com). This data release was produced in compliance with the federal open-data requirements as a way to make scientific products associated with USGS research efforts and publications available to the public.
