Springs of Uttarakhand hills, derived from seepage water are turning from perennial to seasonal and have been highly ignored, even though the springs are secure source behind domestic water availability. A study was initiated in the middle mountainous region of Devprayag, Uttarakhand for the Danda watersheds with area around 3 km2. Automated hydro meteorological data were collected. Regular (daily) spring flow measurements were taken on almost all springs that are used by the habitat of the area. Spring flow availability is evaluated along with the average low flow duration curve for the springs of the watershed. The spring flow variability is related with spring rainfall lag. Relationship between total rainfall and total springflow are also developed
