Summary

Watersheds and contributing areas for watersheds in Northern Kentucky. Water resource planning and water quality management.

Description

14-digit, U.S.G.S. Hydrologic Units. The HUC layer was created by the USGS using ARC/INFO Geographic Information System (GIS) software and attributed to the 11- and 14-digit hydrologic unit code by the NRCS. The basis for selection of 11- and 14-digit hydrologic units is named streams on 1:100,000 scale maps. All named streams on 1:100,000 scale maps had basin boundaries delineated and digitized from 1:24,000 scale maps. This subset for the LINK-GIS Consortium contains all 14 digit HUC’s that intersect Kenton Campbell or Pendelton Countys. This inclueds watersheds in the Licking River Basin, The Ohio River Basin as well as one HUC in the Kentucky River Basin.
