Imperial Valley Raingage Network
Description: The Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS), under contract
to the Imperial Valley Water Authority (IVWA), has operated a dense network
of 25 weighing-bucket rain gauges in Mason and Tazewell Counties year-round
since August 1992. The network
is located in the most heavily irrigated region of the state. The region's
major source of water for irrigation, municipal, and domestic water supplies
is groundwater pumped from thick sand-and-gravel deposits associated with
the confluence of two major ancient river valleys, the Mississippi and the
Mahomet-Teays.
