Looks like the USGS site is back up and running.

Actually the court order has shutdown all computers within the
Department of
the Interior. The Military is not part of that, so they are still up.  I
believe the USGS owns the guages, and I assume they are just able to
store
the data until uploaded by the USGS. The COE seems to be able to tap
into
them, so their site will have the data, too.

The best article on this that I have found was at the
WashingtonPost.com.
