About this gauge

USGS gauge 02233484 sits on the Econlockhatchee River and reads everything draining 228 square miles of the Upper St. Johns basin. Daily flow has been on record here since 2002, 24 years of it.

Where this gauge sits in the drainage

No gauged site sits above this one on the mainstem, so this is the first published reading on the river. Downstream the next reading comes from Econlockhatchee River near Chuluota, FL at 241 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 95% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to St Johns River near Sanford, FL. It then enters St Johns River above Lake Harney near Geneva, FL, below which releases set the flow.
