  • A Brief Study of the Levisa Fork and Russell Fork Of
    A BRIEF STUDY OF THE LEVISA FORK AND RUSSELL FORK OF THE BIG SANDY RIVER by James B. Kirkwood INTRODUCTION The Levisa Fork of the Big Sandy River arises in Buchanan County', Virginia, and flows northwestward through Pike County, Floyd County, Johnson County and into Lawrence County, Kentucky, where the direction of flow becomes northward. The confluence of the Levisa Fork and Tug Fork at Louisa, Kentucky, forms the Big Sandy River which flows into the Ohio River at Catlettsburg, Kentucky. The Big Sandy River drains parts of Kentucky, West Virginia and Virginia. The basin covers an area of 4,281 square miles, of which 2,280 square miles are in Kentucky. Levisa Fork was chosen for study because of its importance as a fishing stream. Numerous centers of population are located along this stream. Accord- ing to the 1952 edition of the Rand McNally Reference Map, populations of the major centers were; Paintsville in Johnson County with a population of 4309, Prestonsburg in Floyd County with 3585 population, Pikeville in Pike County with 5154 population, and Elkhorn City, located on Russell Fork in Pike County, with 1349 population. The major tributaries of the Levisa Fork are: Paint Creek arising in Morgan and Magof fin Counties, Kentucky and entering Levisa Fork at Paintsville; John's Creek, on which Dewey Lake was formed, arises in Pike County and enters Levisa Fork near Prestonsburg; Beaver Creek begins in Knott County, Kentucky and enters Levisa Fork near Martin, Kentucky; Mud Creek is located entirely in Floyd County; Shelby Creek is located in Pike County; Russell Fork, which is reported on in this study, starts in Virginia and flows northwestward to its confluence with Levisa Fork at Millard, Kentucky.

Change and Technology in the United States Preface This project is the result of a project undertaken in my graduate program at the University of Maryland during the late 1980s. When I began, I did not fully realize the scale of the challenge. The research itself was extremely intimidating and time-consuming. It took me a few years to figure out what resources were most helpful in integrating the geography and history of technology. I completed eights maps in 1987 and did a fair amount of writing at the same time.

  • Recognition, Carswell Eroding Refuse
    Carswell Eroding Refuse AML Project Location: Kimball, McDowell County, West Virginia Submitted by: Charles J. Miller Assistant Director WV DEP, Abandoned Mine Lands and Reclamation 601 57th St., S.E. Charleston, WV 25304 Phone: (304) 926-0499 Email: [email protected] Project start date: 1/16/2006 Project complete date: 5/15/2007 Construction cost: $2,542,182 Responsible agency for reclamation: WV Department of Environmental Protection Division of Land Restoration Abandoned Mine Lands and Reclamation Contractor: Green Mountain Company Design Engineer: Ackenheil Engineers & Geologists Date Submitted: 5/12/2008 I. Background The Carswell Eroding Refuse project is located along Laurel Branch in the small coal mining community of Carswell Hollow, just north of the Town of Kimball, in West Virginia’s most southerly county of McDowell. This neighborhood is situated about 4 miles east of the City of Welch, the county seat, along US Route 52, and 12 miles north of Tazewell County, Virginia. The project area drains into Elkhorn Creek, which eventually flows into the Tug Fork River as it meanders its way westward to create the state boundary between Kentucky and West Virginia. Carswell, like so many other southern West Virginia communities, is inexorably linked to coal mining activities as they progressed throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. During these periods, many of the mining operators constructed company homes adjacent to or even on top of coal refuse areas due to the severe shortage of flat land in the steep hollows, so often found in this part of West Virginia. Gradually, however, problems began to develop that ultimately threatened both properties and lives.
