About this gauge
USGS gauge 02339402 sits on the Chattahoochee River and reads everything draining 3,443 square miles of the Middle Chattahoochee-Lake Harding basin. Its datum sits essentially at sea level NAVD88.
Where this gauge sits in the drainage
West Point Lake near West Point, GA sits immediately upstream, so dam releases rather than rainfall set the flow here. Three gauged sites sit upstream of here. The closest is West Point Lake near West Point, GA, reading 3,440 square miles. Downstream the next reading comes from Chattahoochee River at West Point, GA at 3,550 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 97% of the water measured there.
