7Q10: The streamflow that occurs over 7 consecutive days and has a 10-year recurrence interval period, or a 1 in 10 chance of occurring in any one year. Daily streamflows in the 7Q10 range are general indicators of prevalent drought conditions which normally cover large areas. 7Q10 values are also used by the State for regulating water withdrawals and discharges into streams.

30Q2 : The streamflow that occurs over 30 consecutive days and has a 2-year recurrence interval period, or a 1 in 2 chance of occurring in any one year. Daily streamflows in the 30Q2 range are general indicators of initial drought conditions which may cover large areas, and may be used by State regulators in determining water-use restrictions.
