Abstract

Excerpts from the report: The Black Warrior River is a principal tributary of the Tombigbee River, a branch of the Mobile River System. The basin is located primarily in Northwest Alabama and is bounded on the east by the Cahaba and Coosa River Basins, on the north by the Tennessee River Basin, and on the west by the Tombigbee River Basin. The basin is roughly triangular and covers about 4,007,000 acres. It includes parts of 17 counties and has a maximum width of 60 miles and length of 150 miles. The Black Warrior River is formed by the juncture of the Locust and Mulberry Forks 20 miles west of Birmingham. The State of Alabama requested the United States Department of Agriculture to participate in a cooperative study of the Black Warrior River Basin so that various programs of the United States Department of Agriculture can be effectively coordinated with programs of state, local, and other federal agencies. The overall objective of the study was to inventory natural resources, analyze economic development and potential, and provide basic data for orderly development of the water and related land resources of the area giving full consideration to the environmental, economic, and other related values involved.
