S. Geological Survey. It was prepared <br />in the Survey district office in Topeka under the administrative direction and <br />guidance of Elwood R. Leeson, District Engineer. Clarence V. Burns,Hy- <br />draulicEngineer, was in charge of computations and preparation of flow-du- <br />ration curves and was assisted principally by Karen C. Christian, mathema- <br />tician. <br /> <br />Robert L. Smith, Executive Secretary of the State Water Resources Board <br />directed and guided the scope and content of this report toward the goal of <br />providing information useful to the development of the water resources of <br />Kansas. <br /> <br />The basic streamflow records which supplied the foundation of this report <br />were processed by electronic computer in the Washington office of the Geo- <br />logical Survey under the direction of William L. Isherwood, Hydraulic Engi- <br />neer. <br /> <br />Acknowledgment is also made of the helpful advice and criticism of the <br />Washington staff of the U. S. Geological Survey, particularly Clayton H. Har- <br />dison, Chief, Hydrologic Studies Section, who developed methods for region- <br />alizing flow duration relations and advised on many of the technicalproblems <br />involved in this study. <br />
