The document provides formulas and tables for calculating flow rates using measurements from V-notch weirs.

Formulas are provided to calculate flow rates in cubic feet per second (CFS), gallons per minute (GPM), and million gallons per day (MGD) using measurements in both feet and meters.

The tables provide measurements and calculations using feet, inches, meters, CFS, GPM, MGD, liters/second, and cubic meters/hour.
