USGS Water-Year Summary 2024
02413210 LITTLE TALLAPOOSA R AT GA 100, NEAR BOWDON, GA
LOCATION - Lat 33°29'33.7", long 85°16'45.5" referenced to North American Datum of 1983, Carroll County, GA, Hydrologic Unit 03150108, 0.6 mi downstream from confluence with Hungry Creek, 1.9 mi upstream from confluence with Big Indian Creek, and 3.7 mi south of Bowdon.
DRAINAGE AREA - 245 mi².
REVISIONS HISTORY -

Gage datum was revised on Feb 16, 2022 based on an error in the determination of the gage datum.

SURFACE-WATER RECORDS
PERIOD OF RECORD -
DISCHARGE: December 1999 to September 2004, April 2008 to current year.
GAGE HEIGHT: April 2008 to current year.
GAGE - Satellite telemetry with a water-stage recorder. Datum of gage is 906.72 feet above North American Vertical Datum (NAVD) of 1988 (from GNSS survey).
COOPERATION - Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division.
REMARKS - Gage-height records are generally good. Discharge records are generally fair except for estimated discharges, which are poor. Additional details on the accuracy of the records can be obtained by contacting the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center at gs-w-ga_nwisweb_data_inquiries@usgs.gov.
