We need the Tellico gauge for our website , and our sport .

Please check out this page

http://alabamawhitewater.com/ridge/

The Tellico gauge is used to support two different watershed ranges and 18 different creeks!

Please do not get rid of this gauge or its funding, that gauge brings a lot of people to the area from out-of-state and helps the Township of Tellico Plains economically as well .Which equals needed employment for the area.
