The transect locations table documents specific locations where such work has been performed. 1993-01-01 2023-04-20 ground condition As needed USGS site 9; coordinates taken from 1996-97 GPS measurements at center of weir Parent Stream: Andersen Creek Provenance : GPS96-97.DOC ID: andrsn_h1 162.906356800000 162.906356800000 -77.622772000000 -77.622772000000 78m 78m meter Bohner at B5.
