The National System
Wild and Scenic Rivers:
River segments are classified in three categories:wild, scenic and recreational. Each category isdefined by its accessibility and level of surroundingdevelopment. Wild rivers are primitive withoutdevelopment and are generally only accessible bytrail, while recreational rivers are accessible by roador rail and may have shoreline or watersheddevelopments. Scenic rivers fall in between. Overall,56 rivers such as the Owyhee in Idaho and Oregonand the Sheenjek in Alaska fall exclusively into thewild category. 24 rivers fall exclusively into thescenic category, like the Pere Marquette in Michiganand Big Piney Creek in Arkansas, while 21 riverssuch as the Allegheny in Pennsylvania and theMississquoi and Trout Rivers in Vermont areconsidered exclusively recreational.
The National Wild and Scenic Rivers Actdefines rivers as deserving of legalprotection because they are free-flowingand possess “outstandingly remarkablescenic, recreational, geologic, fish andwildlife, historic, cultural, or other similarvalues” or outstandingly remarkablevalues (ORVs).
What began with eight rivers has grownto include more than 12,700 miles legally-recognized wild, scenic and recreationalrivers. In total, 209 rivers in 40 states andPuerto Rico are part of the NationalSystem.

Signed into law on October 2, 1968 by President Lyndon B. Johnson, the Wild andScenic Rivers Act preserves the essence of rivers that surge, ramble, gush, wander andweave. The act became law when visionary outdoor enthusiasts and Congressionalsponsors championed a system of free-flowing rivers to balance national policies ofextensive dam building and water diversions. This monumental act of citizens whocared about the future of American rivers--the arteries connecting communities andpublic lands--brought an age of invigorated understanding, restoration and respect forpublic safety.

Today, the Act continues to protect the special character of rivers while also balancing their role in economic growth, andencourages public participation in developing effective and long-term management strategies. Concerned citizens andriver proponents collaborate with local industries on proposals like Washington’s Wild Olympics wilderness, which wouldprotect nearly 500 miles of rivers and more than 160,000 acres of land.
As water usage and construction projects increase, grassroots efforts continue to call attention to other special free-flowing rivers and the need to consider additional protections for them. The National Wild and Scenic River System’sdesign helps protect the quality of free-flowing American rivers for current and future generations.

The Bureau of Land Management, Fish andWildlife Service, Forest Service and NationalPark Service manage designated rivers that flowthrough federal lands and work cooperativelywith partner organizations and stakeholders onboth federal and non-federal rivers. The Actnotably safeguards the special character ofthese rivers, while also recognizing the potentialfor their appropriate use and development. Itencourages river management that crossespolitical boundaries and promotes publicparticipation in developing goals for riverprotection.
The Wild and Scenic Rivers Act was enacted at a time when Americans werebecoming more environmentally aware. During the 1960s and 1970s, this changingconsciousness gave rise to national policies protecting air, water, wilderness andendangered species. The National System of Wild and Scenic Rivers, created by theAct, lists each river and the federal agency or state responsible for managingits designation protecting its associated ORVs.

Growth of the Wild and ScenicRiver System
River-Administering Agencies
Following detailed study to determine if a riveris suitable and has the public support to beprotected, a Wild and Scenic River is generallydesignated by an act of Congress. The 1980srepresented a decade of significant growth tothe Wild and Scenic Rivers System due to thepassage of laws that designated all 25 rivers inAlaska and most rivers in Oregon. Increases inthe 1990s and 2000s resulted from state-wideriver designation bills in Michigan and Arkansas,as well as the designation of 32 new rivers underthe Omnibus Public Land Management Act of2009. The most recent addition is East RosebudCreek in Montana, designated in 2018.
Wild and Scenic Rivers:Water Quality
Why Clean Water?
The Role of the Wild and ScenicRivers Act
Congress created a policyto "preserve...selected
rivers or sections thereofin their free-flowing
condition to protect thewater quality of such
rivers and to fulfill othervital national
conservation purposes"WSR Act, Section 1(b)
Every living thing relies on clean water. Water quality is an important indicator ofecosystem health. Historically rivers have been thelifelines of civilizations, defining our settlements,providing sustenance, and enabling life.
Both water quality and quantity along withspecial river values for wild and scenic rivers areto be protected and improved according to law.

Freshwater animalsare disappearing five
times faster thanland animals.
Estimates indicatethat 70% of the
riparian habitat in theUnited States has
been lost or altered.
80% of songbirds and50% of threatened
and endangeredspecies depend onrivers and streams.
Shade provided byriparian vegetationoptimizes the light
and temperature forfish, aquatic plants,
and resident animals.
Although riparianecosystems occupy
only 7% of thecountry, they are
more diverse and havemore plant and animalspecies than adjacent
upland areas.
To illustrate howriparian vegetation
supports water quality:One mature tree in a
riparian area can filterout as much as 200pounds of nitrate

Wild and Scenic Rivers and their immediateenvironments possess outstandinglyremarkable scenic, recreational, geological,fish and wildlife, historical, cultural, or othervalues that are unique or truly special.
Riparian areas are lands along rivers andother water bodies. While their appearanceand boundaries vary, their soil andvegetation are unlike their neighboring'uplands' due to the dominant influence ofnearby water.
Of the more than 200designated Wild and
Scenic Rivers, 74% areprotected for fish, 67%

River Recreation & Economics
Wild and Scenic Rivers:
As a vital part of the outdoor recreation economy, rivers offer unique opportunities for Americans. Residents andvisitors alike can enjoy activities ranging from day hikes and sightseeing to floating by day and camping at night ondesignated and eligible rivers. Below are a few of the many ways to enjoy nature on Wild and Scenic Rivers.
Recreation Opportunities Along Wild and Scenic Rivers
Camping is permitted indesignated zones alongriverways, since manyWild and Scenic Riversflow through a mixture ofprivate and public lands.Many first encountersand lasting memories ofnature involve being nearwater. Without the addeddraw of the water, morethan one-third ofrecreationists woulddecrease their overalloutdoor activity.
Not only do rivers drawanimals to a plentifulsource of fresh water, butmany rivers are home tospecies that are seldomfound elsewhere.Riparian habitats boastunique communities ofspecies compared toother ecosystems andoffer vastly differentopportunities forobserving wildlife ontheir terms. Seasonedhunters know the valueof riparian habitats togame species.
Raft, canoe, kayak andother watercraft travel ispossible when rivers arefree-flowing andunobstructed by dams orother artificial barriers.Some of the most popularrivers hold annuallotteries for float trips. Inthe western UnitedStates, 11 rivers hostlotteries to distributepermits for launches. TheSelway River in Idaho isthe most exclusive ofthese lotteries. Only onepublic launch party perday is permitted duringthe season, so visitors cantruly experience this wildwilderness river.
Anglers, along withboaters, engage mostdirectly with the uniquecharacter of Wild andScenic Rivers. Riversoffer critical habitat tomany species of fish.These inhabitantsdisplay different ways ofliving and reproducing inthe water. Anglers mustadapt to the demandsand habits of eachspecies while practicinglegal and ethical fishing.For many anglers, a Wildand Scenic River isdefined by andinseparable from the fishthat populate it.

EcosystemServices
Oregon
Wild and Scenic Rivers and their immediate environments possessoutstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geological, fish andwildlife, historical, cultural, or other similar values.
Outdoor recreation is a massive and growingindustry supporting 7.6 million jobs. It saw a37% increase in annual consumer spendingfrom 2015 to 2016 from $646 billion to $887billion. River recreation accounts for up toone-third of this spending, including activitiesboth on and around waterways.
Healthy rivers serve important functionsbeyond just recreation. Humans wouldotherwise need to pay for these "ecosystemservices." Services include access to water forirrigation, water table replenishment, waterpurification in wetlands, and erosion-resistant banksides that provide floodcontrol. Nearly 84% of Wild and Scenic Riversare designated for ecosystem services andother non-recreational benefits.
Oregon has slightly more than 1,900 miles ofits total river mileage designated as Wild andScenic, spread across 59 different rivers [8].Many of these rivers are protected for theirrecreational value as well as values such ashydrology, water quality, and traditional use.Oregon also shares the Columbia River Basinwith Washington, which is estimated toprovide $198 billion annually in water,habitat, flood reduction, food production, andother benefits.
Idaho
With 22 designated Wild and Scenic Rivers,or 10.5% of all designations, Idahoencourages waterway recreation. Outdoorconsumer spending totals $7.8 billionannually, and 78,000 jobs relate in some wayto outdoor recreation. Wild and ScenicRivers contribute significantly to thesefigures by providing a strong draw for localand out-of-state visitors.
Imnaha River
The Imnaha River, within the basin, isprotected for a wide range of values,including its role in supporting recreation,traditional living, and historic agriculturalpractices. Farming and ranching continuestoday near the water the river provides forirrigation and drinking, alongside habitat forunique plant communities.

Wild and Scenic Rivers: Geology and Hydrology
Geology and hydrology affect...
Geology is the study of how the Earth changes through time. Hydrology is the study of water systems and water movement
throughout the Earth.
Over 45% of designated Wild and Scenic Rivershave outstanding geologic or hydrologic resources.These rivers display features or processes that areunique, rare, or exemplary to their regions.
They may highlight unusual landscapes,represent textbook examples of earthprocesses, or have rare combinations ofgeologic features in the river corridor.
Scenery
Ecology
Recreation
Rivers constantly rearrangelandscapes over time throughweathering and erosion.Rivers carve through rockand soil, creating amazingcanyons, gorges, and slopingmountains. The scenic valuesof these features oftencontribute to the case forWild and Scenic Riverdesignation.
When rivers flow over rocks,water mixes with air andoxygen is dissolved. Manyfish and aquatic animals relyon water with high amountsof dissolved oxygen to live.
Some fish species, likeAmerican shad, need rifflesto provide safe places fortheir young to mature.Riverbeds provide criticalhabitat for many plants andanimals, including aquaticinsects. Some of thesespecies have only been foundin designated rivers.
A river's slope and rockybottom can create rapids,making boating fun andchallenging! Rivers with highwater quality often haveexceptional recreationalfishing opportunities. Forrecreation out of the water,trails along rivers providehikers with spectacularviews.

Wild and Scenic Rivers: History, Culture, and Paleontology
Cultural, historic, and paleontological resources found along certain Wildand Scenic Rivers tell stories about our human and Earth’s evolutionarypast. While over 31% of Wild and Scenic Rivers have outstanding culturalresources, paleontological features are much rarer.
Our Human Past We can learn a lot about the people that lived along rivers based on what they left behind. These
cultural resources are important to understanding the different uses of rivers. Some examples ofcultural and historic resources include structures, artifacts, and evidence of important historicevents and past land use.

St. Croix River, MN & WI
People have lived along the St.Croix River for more than12,000 years. NativeAmericans harvested wild riceand fish from the river, andlater settlers used the St. Croixto transport timber, furs, andother goods. Starting in the1800s, river recreationincreased in popularity.Conservation efforts started inthe 1890s when nearby stateparks were created.

Wild and Scenic Rivers: History, Culture, and Paleontology
Earth's Evolutionary Past
Paleontology is the study of fossilized plants and animals. Fossils help us understand the history oflife on Earth. A few Wild and Scenic Rivers have remarkable fossils that tell the story about lifemillions of years ago.
John Day River, OR
The Sudbury, Assabet, and ConcordRivers are important in Americanhistory and literature. The firstbattle of the Revolutionary Wartook place on the Old North Bridgein Concord. In the 1800s, the threerivers were featured in the works offamous authors includingHawthorne, Emerson, and Thoreau.
Niobrara River, NE The rocks around the John Day River are a chronology of life
over the last 44 million years. This area is rich with plant andanimal fossils including the remains of palm and banana treesas well as crocodiles, early horses, and rodents. Many fossils areon display at the Thomas Condon Paleontology Center.
Fossils around the Niobrara River that are between 2 millionand 23 million years old help scientists understand the historyof the Great Plains. Mastodons and North American rhinos(fossil shown above) are just two amazing species whose fossilsare found here.

Wild and Scenic Rivers: Health and Safety
Healthy Water andHealthy People
65% of our nation’s drinking water comesfrom rivers and streams. Toxins thatcontaminate water can harm the humanbody, meaning that good health starts withgood water chemistry.
Get Active!
Exercise helps prevent and alleviate health issues includingobesity, high blood pressure and diabetes. Recreating onand near rivers increases physical activity in the outdoors,which can help your body process vitamin D and produceendorphins—a hormone that makes you feel good.Paddling, in particular, is a low impact form of exercise forupper or whole body. River recreation is also a refreshingand proven way to relax, and recreating with others canimprove social health by providing opportunities to buildlong-lasting friendships and engage in team building.

Wild and Scenic Rivers:Health and Safety
Rivers are powerful forces in nature and demand respect. Drownings have accounted for the most fatalities inNational Parks between 2007 and 2013, and most of those occurred in rivers. Rivers have strong currents thatcan be very dangerous, even for skilled swimmers. Before you get out on a river, make sure you take theappropriate actions.
Plan Your Trip
For more general trip planning tips look up"Trip Planning Guide" and "Water SafetyArticle" on nps.gov.
Always Wear a Life Jacket
Life jackets are essential for any kind of river recreation. Makesure you are wearing the appropriate life jacket for the activity youare doing. Whether you are boating, swimming, fishing, wading,tubing, or participating in an activity on the river or along riverbanks, wearing a properly-fitted life jacket can save your life.
Pick the Right Life Jacket. It should be: Approved by the U.S. Coast Guard (check the label).
In good condition. Does it float? Get a new one if it has tears,missing straps, broken buckle or zippers, etc.
The right type of life jacket for your activity. The right size for you.
Life jacket images: National Safe Boating Council
Safety
Check in with a Park Ranger and ask aboutriver and weather conditions, park alerts andclosures.
Check your food, water and equipment andthat everyone has a life jacket.
Put Plan B into action if necessary.
When You Arrive:
Know Before You Go: Visit the park's website to learn about the
river including river conditions, potentialhazards (e.g. underwater terrain) and allowedwater activities.
Know your limits and pick an appropriateactivity for your group's size and ability.
Check that everyone has a U.S. Coast Guardapproved life jacket and that each person'slife jacket fits properly.
Develop a Plan B in case things change andyou can't do your planned activity.
Complete and share your Trip Plan withsomeone who is not going on the trip.
Develop a plan of action so you know what todo if there is an emergency (e.g. you gooverboard, your boat flips, hazardous riverconditions).
Always wear your life jacket! Stick to your intended route.
Keep an eye on environmental changes(weather, wildlife, water conditions etc) andyour group to assess if you should continueyour trip or turn back.
On the River:
Test the Fit of the Life Jacket:
Fasten and secure all of the strapsand raise your arms.
Your vest should stay and not rideup.
Have someone lift the jacket up atyour shoulders; it should not move.
