The Duck’s scenic section, which begins at Iron Bridge Road near Columbia and extends upstream to the Maury and Marshall County line, features over 500 documented species including aquatic plants, fish and invertebrates. The river contains 39 mussel and 84 fish species; more species of fish than in all of Europe. Steeped in a rich cultural and natural heritage, the Duck River is a deserving addition to the Tennessee State Scenic Rivers System. Legislation establishing this section of the Duck River as a Class II State Scenic River was signed into law by Governor Don Sundquist on May 15, 2001 (The Tennessee Conservationist, September/October, 2001). 1 of 5 8/30/2005 9:48 AM The Tennessee Conservationist Magazine - Recycling in TN State Parks http://tennessee.gov/environment/tn_consv/archive/duckriver.htm Approximately 270 miles in length, the Duck is the longest river contained entirely within Tennessee’s borders. Other than one impoundment not far from its headwaters -- Normandy Dam and Reservoir completed in the mid-1970s near Tullahoma -- this lazy, meandering river is primarily free flowing.

This map is useful in planning the use and management of large areas. To find information about your area of interest, locate that area on the map, identify the name of the map unit in the area on the color-coded map legend, then refer to the section General Soil Map Units for a general description of the soils in your area. Detailed Soil Maps The detailed soil maps can be useful in planning the use and management of small areas. To find information about your area of interest, locate that area on the Index to Map Sheets. Note the number of the map sheet and go to that sheet. Locate your area of interest on the map sheet. Note the map unit symbols that are in that area. Go to the Contents, which lists the map units by symbol and name and shows the page where each map unit is described.

  • Duck River Watershed Plan FINAL WATERSHED ASSESSMENT
    Duck River Watershed Plan FINAL WATERSHED ASSESSMENT U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Nashville District May 2018 Executive Summary This Watershed Plan is a Final Watershed Assessment (FWA) of the Duck River watershed, located in south-central Tennessee. This assessment was prepared under the authority of Section 729 of the Water Resource Development Act of 1986, as amended, which authorizes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to undertake watershed planning. This Watershed Plan identifies existing conditions within the watershed, details the major water resources problems and opportunities in the watershed, and provides specific recommendations for implementation. This study was undertaken with collaboration and input from four non-federal sponsors: The Duck River Development Agency (DRWA), The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), and the Buffalo/Duck Resource Conservation and Development Council. The Duck River is considered one of the most biologically diverse rivers in North America and is an outstanding national resource. It has an almost unsurpassed variety of freshwater animal life and is one of three most diverse streams for fish and mussel diversity in the world. The Duck River basin provides habitat for 35 species listed as federally endangered, threatened, candidate or species of concern. The developed landscape ranges from small cities and towns to sparsely populated rural areas with the upper part of the watershed experiencing rapid urbanization and population growth. More than 250,000 middle Tennessee residents rely on the Duck River as their sole source of water. The watershed’s ecosystem is under stress from rapid urban development, land use changes, incompatible agricultural practices, wastewater management and water supply practices, and resource extraction activities.

  • Conserving the Duck River
    Conserving the Duck River: A plan for collaborative action November 2005 Preface and Acknowledgements The Nature Conservancy (TNC) led this conservation planning effort for the Duck River watershed, carried out during calendar year 2005, and the primary author of this conservation plan is Sally Rollins Palmer. This work was supported by a National Fish and Wildlife Federation grant awarded to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency on behalf of the Southeast Aquatic Resource Partnership (SARP). The SARP chose the Duck River as one of four pilot watersheds in the Southeastern U.S. (the Duck, the Altamaha in GA, the Roanoke in NC & VA, and the Pascagoula in MS) to test the development of a Southeastern Aquatic Habitat Plan. Many other individuals contributed their expertise to this plan, representing several agencies and organizations, including the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA), the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). The Buffalo/Duck River Resource Conservation and Development Council coordinator was also interviewed, and components of the RC& D’s strategic plan incorporated into this planning effort. The following individuals attended planning meetings and contributed to the development of this plan in several ways: Gray Anderson – TWRA, Jeff Bowie – NRCS, Geoff Call – USFWS, Leslie Colley – TNC, Frank Fiss - TWRA Paul Freeman – TNC, Don Hubbs – TWRA, Richard Kirk – TWRA, Larry Lofton – Buffalo/Duck RC&D, Doug Murphy – TVA, Odell Poyner - NRCS, Jeff Prestwich – TWRA, Greg Taylor – NRCS, Greg Wathen – TWRA, and Joey Wisby – TNC. Cover photo credit: Byron Jorjorian Conserving the Duck River: A plan for collaborative action ii Executive Summary The Duck River in south-central Tennessee remains one of the most biologically diverse rivers on North American continent and is an outstanding national resource.
