    ARCHEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL DETERMINATION OF TRADITIONALLY NAVIGABLE WATERS IN NORTHERN VIRGINIA AND A COMPREHENSIVE METHODOLOGY FOR THE DETERMINATION OF THE TRADITIONAL NAVIGABILITY OF WATERWAYS IN THE UNITED STATES Goose Creek Canal, Loudoun County Virginia William P. Barse, Ph.D. and Boyd Sipe July 2007 5300 Wellington Branch Drive • Suite 100 • Gainesville, VA 20155 • Phone 703.679.5600 • Fax 703.679.5601 www.wetlandstudies.com A Division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. ABSTRACT This document presents the results of an archival and documentary study on the Traditional Navigability of Waterways in Northern Virginia. The study area is depicted in Attachment 1 of this report and is roughly bounded by the Potomac River on the north and east, the Opequon Creek watershed on the west and the Rappahannock River watershed on the south. The study was conducted by Thunderbird Archeology, a division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. of Gainesville, Virginia. The purposes of this work are threefold. The primary purpose is to assist consultants and regulators in completing Section III of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Approved Jurisdictional Form. In order to accomplish this goal, a working definition of what constitutes Traditional Navigable Waterways was prepared. This definition will aid in the determination of Waters of the United States jurisdiction for the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers within the study area. Secondly, using specific archeological and historical information, the paper demonstrates that certain rivers and streams can be identifiable as Traditional Navigable Waterways. It is also possible to consider the use of streams for recreation, e.g.

No fossils have been found in the Chopawamsic, but it conformably underlies the Quantico Slate of Ordovician age and conformably overlies and interfingers with mica gneiss of the Wissahickon Formation of late Precambrian( ?) age.
