Wild and Scenic River Study: Nolichucky River
U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service. 1980. Wild and Scenic River Study: Nolichucky River
Public Law 93-621, which amends the Wild and Scenic River Act (Public Law 90-542), requires the National Park Service and other federal and state agencies to perform an eligibility report on the Nolichucky River in Tennessee and North Carolina, to determine whether the river was subject to inclusion under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. The report contains basic data, study findings, conclusions and recommendations towards designation. However, in 1994, the U.S. Forest Service reevaluated the Nolichucky River Gorge as a possible inclusion to the National System. The Forest Service produced a Wild and Scenic River Study Report and Environmental Impact Statement for this segment.
