AL Power Reservoir info line, 800-525-3711, then 6, wait until warning message about water levels, then 2, 2, for CFS reading. USGS gauge at takeout is in FT. 4.5'= 400 cfs. There is also a gauge on the Hwy 35 bridge, southeast corner. CFS minus 600, then divided by 100 = inches on bridge gage. ie, bridge gauge times 100 + 600 = CFS. This estimate is approximate based on how much rain and how long ago. 10-29-04 We are redoing this equation as we don't think it is as accurate as we thought. 11-15-04 Gauge is reading + 500 cfs. Take the cfs reading and subtract 500 to get some correlation of correct reading. 1000 cfs is "0" on the bridge |
