the NHD data sets provide this information, but are mostly not done for 
Upstate yet. i've volunteered for the Hudson basins, but am only just
getting started.

general information is here:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/National_Hydrography_Dataset

basin signup is here:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/NHD/Basins_East

you probably want to look at the various Susquehanna basins.
