United States Geological Survey Partnership

USGS installed a camera and stream gauge to monitor Walnut Creek at South State Street.

Benefits

As water levels rise, we'll be able to provide flood warning to first responders more quickly. The goal is to increase response time to keep people safe and out of flooded areas during major storms.
