USGS Water-Year Summary 2025
02148315 WATEREE RIVER BELOW EASTOVER, SC
LOCATION - Lat 33°49'42", long 80°37'14" referenced to North American Datum of 1927, Richland County, SC, Hydrologic Unit 03050104, on right bank, 1.3 mi upstream from Southern Railway bridge, 1.8 mi northeast of Wateree, 4.5 mi southeast of Eastover, and at mile 10.8.
DRAINAGE AREA - 5,590 mi².
SURFACE-WATER RECORDS
PERIOD OF RECORD - July 1968 to July 2014 (discontinued), discharge below 10,000 ft³/s only.
GAGE - Data collection platform. Datum of gage is 77.43 ft above NGVD of 1929 (South Carolina Electric and Gas Company benchmark).
EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF RECORD - Discharge values represent only that portion of the flow confined to the main channel (less than approximately 10,000 ft³/s). At times of higher flow, bankfull capacity is exceeded, and flow is dispersed throughout the floodplain. Higher flows are indeterminate, therefore, daily mean discharges greater than 10,000 ft³/s are not shown.
