The lake water level of Great Salt Lake is tagged by incorrect keyword. variable is quotElevation above NGVDquot concept keyword is incorrectly quotGroundwater levelquot although the variable describes surface lake water level.

Sent usgs feedback: http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/inventory/?site_no=10010050_cd=USGS Elevation above NGVD Wouldn't these be more appropriate? Lake or reservoir water surface elevation above NAVD 1988, ft Lake or reservoir water surface elevation above NGVD 1929, ft Lake or reservoir water surface elevation above NGVD 1929, m

http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/inventory/?site_no=10172903_cd=USGS uses Elevation of reservoir water surface above datum,
