#' Basic Water Quality Portal Data parser
#'
#' Imports data from the Water Quality Portal based on a specified url.
#'
#' @param obs_url character URL to Water Quality Portal#' @keywords data import USGS web service
#' @param tz character to set timezone attribute of datetime. Default is UTC
#' (properly accounting for daylight savings times based on the data's provided tz_cd column).
#' Possible values include "America/New_York","America/Chicago", "America/Denver","America/Los_Angeles",
#' "America/Anchorage","America/Honolulu","America/Jamaica","America/Managua",
#' "America/Phoenix", and "America/Metlakatla"
#' @param csv logical. Is the data coming back with a csv or tsv format. Default is \code{FALSE}.
#' Currently, the summary service does not support tsv, for other services tsv is the safer choice.
#' @param convertType logical, defaults to \code{TRUE}. If \code{TRUE}, the function
#' will convert the data to dates, datetimes,
#' numerics based on a standard algorithm. If false, everything is returned as a character.
#' @return retval dataframe raw data returned from the Water Quality Portal. Additionally,
#' a POSIXct dateTime column is supplied for
#' start and end times, and converted to UTC. See
#' \url{https://www.waterqualitydata.us/portal_userguide/} for more information.
