Haw River watershed

The Haw River watershed is an area of land where all the water drains into the Haw River, located in North Carolina. This watershed includes rivers, streams, and wetlands that collect rain and runoff, eventually feeding into the Haw River. It covers parts of several counties and supports diverse ecosystems, wildlife, and communities. The health of the watershed impacts water quality downstream and provides recreational opportunities. Managing this area involves protecting water quality, conserving natural habitats, and balancing development with environmental sustainability.
