About this gauge
USGS gauge 02342850 sits on Hannahatchee Creek and reads everything draining 121 square miles of the Middle Chattahoochee-Walter F basin. Its datum sits 233 feet above sea level NAVD88. Daily flow has been on record here since 1964, 19 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 Chattahoochee River at Spur 39, near Omaha, GA at 5,910 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 2% of the water measured there.
