  • A Recommended Method to Protect Instream Flows in Georgia
    A Recommended Method to Protect Instream Flows in Georgia by James W. Evans and Russell H. England Georgia Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Resources Division Social Circle, Georgia December 1995 This study was funded in part with funds obtained through the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act. Your purchase of fishing equipment and motor boat fuels supports Sport Fish Restoration and boating access facilities The Georgia Department of Natural Resources receives Federal Aid in Sport Fish and Wildlife Restoration. Under Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination Act of 1975, and Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, the U. S. Department of the Interior prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, sex, or disability. If you believe that you have been discriminated against in any program, activity, or facility as described above, or if you desire further information please write to: The Office for Human Resources U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service 4040 N. Fairfax Drive Room 300 Arlington, Virginia 22203 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The increasing demand for water to support Georgia's growing human population creates significant challenges for natural resource managers responsible for protecting the state's fish and wildlife. Heavy dependence on surface water supplies for municipalities, industry, and agriculture has severely depleted and/or altered natural stream flows, adversely impacting aquatic habitat. Georgia's present policy protects stream flow from being depleted below the 7Q10 flow (a ten-year frequency drought event), but there is an overwhelming consensus among aquatic resource managers that higher flows are necessary to support the fish and wildlife, recreation, and aesthetics that Georgia’s citizens expect from their natural environment.

  • Nantahala Mountains Geographic Area June 1, 2017
    Nantahala Mountains Geographic Area June 1, 2017 **Disclaimer: The specific descriptions, goals, desired conditions, and objectives only apply to the National Forest System Lands within the Nantahala Mountains Geographic Area. However, nearby communities and surrounding lands are considered and used as context. ** Nantahala Mountains Geographic Area Updated: June 1, 2017 Description of area A land of large, rounded mountains and lush coves, the Nantahala Mountains Geographic Area contains one of the largest contiguous blocks of National Forest System lands on the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests. The geographic area’s vast expanses provide a diverse range of forest uses for visitors and residents. The Nantahala Mountains provide tens of thousands of acres of remote forest areas for visitors and residents to use and explore. From high elevation heath balds like Wayah Bald and weathered rock outcrops to lowland cove and mesic oak/pine forests, the Nantahala Mountains offers a range of biological and scenic diversity special to the National Forests in North Carolina. The geographic area’s large block of contiguous ownership provides visitors with multiple access points for long-distance hiking, rock climbing, hunting, highly developed camping, group camping, horseback riding, and shooting sports at the Dirty John Shooting Range. Anglers enjoy the many creeks and river headwaters, as well as the high mountain Nantahala Lake whose waters flow into the Hiwassee, Nantahala, Little Tennessee, and Tallulah Rivers. These mountains are the setting for multiple Louis L’Amour novels of the famed Sackett family. Communities within this geographic area include Franklin, Andrews, Upper Peachtree, and Nantahala. These communities and others nearby rely on the 175,660 acres of forest land in the geographic area (326,835 acres total).

  • Rights of Way Endangered Species Survey for the Northeast Region of Georgia
    RIGHTS OF WAY ENDANGERED SPECIES SURVEY FOR THE NORTHEAST REGION OF GEORGIA. The Northeast Region ofGeorgia includes 24 counties: Banks, Barrows, Clarke, Dawson, Elbert, Fannin, Forsyth, Franklin, Greene, Habersham, Hart, Hall, Jackson, Lumpkin, Madison, Morgan, Oconee, Oglethorpe, Rabun, Stephens, Towns, Union, Walton and White. Based on The Georgia Natural Heritage Inventory records, the following plants and plant community locations were searched for on Georgia Power Company rights ofways: Georgia aster - Aster georgianus Dwarfstonecrop - Sedum pusillum Indian olive - Nestronia umbellulua Silky bindweed - Calystegia catesbiana ssp. sericata Smooth purple coneflower - Echinacea laevigata (Federal Endangered) Ginseng - Panax quinquefolius Pipewort - Eriocaulon koemickianum American Milkwort - Pilularia Americana Granite outcrop (shrub, bare rock, lichen) communities There are three maintenance concerns. Two are minor concerns in Walton county with granite outcrops communities. (See Walton county summary) and one in Stephens county with smooth purnle coneflower (See Stephens county summary). Discussion and recommendations: A few ofthe Northeast Region counties are located in the mountains and foothill region ofGeorgia, but most are in the Piedmont. Much of the Georgia mountain region is owned and managed by the United States Forest Service. Georgia Power has large holdings in this area as well and has been involved with protected species (persistent trillium Trillium persistents and the green salamander aneides aeneus) on company lands at Tallulah Gorge, but these species locations are not close to Georgia Power rights ofways so there are no concerns for right ofway maintenance. The majority oflocations in this region, are within the Piedmont province. Due to a long history ofearly European use (and misuse) for settlement, agriculture and logging, the original Piedmont plant communities ofGeorgia have been altered drastically over the past 2 centuries.
