About this gauge
USGS gauge 02415000 sits on Hillabee Creek and reads everything draining 190 square miles of the Middle Tallapoosa basin. Its datum sits 558 feet above sea level NGVD29. Daily flow has been on record here since 1952, 59 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 Lake Martin Res (Tallapoosa R.) near Eclectic, AL at 2,984 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 6% of the water measured there.
