Hydrologic Data Collection A rain gage is used to measure the amount
of rainfall at a point of observation. An outflow recorder is used to measure the amount of
surface runoff at a point of observation.
The accurate measurement of rainfall and runoff is the essential foundation for quantitative hydrologic analyses.

Water Conservation (Quantity and Quality)
PURPOSE: Seawater Barriers protect a significant portion of the area's drinking water supply by essentially forcing out ocean water which constantly attempts to migrate into existing aquifers. Treated reclaimed and imported water is injected deep into geologic formations. LADPW – Water Resources Division operates and maintains 3 Seawater Barriers along the California coastline: 1) Alamitos Barrier 2) West Coast Basin Barrier 3) Dominguez Gap Barrier
