dbo:abstract | Spring Creek is a tributary of the Little Kanawha River in western West Virginia in the United States. Via the Little Kanawha and Ohio rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of 89 square miles (230 km2) in a rural region on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau. It is 25.3 miles (40.7 km) long, or 33.3 miles (53.6 km) long including its Left Fork. Spring Creek is formed just south of the city of Spencer in northern Roane County by the confluence of the Left Fork Spring Creek, 8 miles (13 km) long, which rises near the community of Clover and flows northwestward, paralleled for most of its course by West Virginia Route 36; and the Right Fork Spring Creek, 7.8 miles (12.6 km) long, which rises near the community of Speed and flows northward, paralleled for most of its course by U.S. Route 119. From the confluence of its forks, Spring Creek flows northward through Spencer and northern Roane County into southeastern Wirt County, where it flows into the Little Kanawha River from the south at the community of Sanoma, approximately 8 miles (13 km) southeast of Elizabeth. Little Spring Creek is a tributary of Spring Creek, 7 miles (11 km) long, in northeastern Roane County. Charles Mill Lake, approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) southeast of Spencer, is formed by a dam on the Charles Fork, a tributary of the Left Fork Spring Creek. The lake was constructed in 1974 and is owned by the city of Spencer; it is operated as a recreation area for boating, fishing, hiking, biking, and camping. According to the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, approximately 79.5% of the Spring Creek watershed is forested, mostly deciduous. Approximately 18.7% is used for pasture and agriculture. (en) Спринг-Крик (англ. Spring Creek) — река в США, на западе штата Западная Виргиния. Приток реки Литл-Канова, которая в свою очередь является притоком реки Огайо. Составляет около 41 км в длину; площадь водосборного бассейна — 231 км². Формируется в результате слияния рек Лефт-Форк (13 км) и Райт-Форк (12,6 км) близ города Спенсер на севере округа Роан. Лефт-Форк берёт начало близ населённого пункта Клауэр и течёт на северо-запад. Райт-Форк берёт начало близ населённого пункта Спид и течёт в северном направлении. Начиная с места слияния двух рек, Спринг-Крик течёт в севером направлении через северную часть округов Спенсер и Роан и через юго-восточную часть округа Вирт. Впадает в реку Литл-Канова в 13 км к юго-востоку от Элизабет. Около 79,5 % территории бассейна реки занимают леса. (ru) |
