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 Cornish Creek at Hazelbrand Rd near Covington, GA at 27 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 13% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to Alcovy River below Covington, GA and Ocmulgee River near Jackson, GA. It then enters Jackson Lake Lloyd Shoals near Jackson, GA, below which releases set the flow.
