"Scenic" rivers are free of dams, with shorelines or watersheds still largely primitive and shorelines largely undeveloped, but accessible in places by roads. ?Recreational? rivers are readily accessible by road or railroad, may have some development along their shorelines, and may have been dammed in the past. Although 208 rivers are currently designated by Congress as part of the National Wild and Scenic River System, thousands more rivers and their associated segments were studied for designation. Agencies are responsible for protecting rivers identified as eligible or suitable for inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic River System.

Three classifications exist: Wild, Scenic, and Recreational. Regardless of classification, each river in the National System is administered with the goal of protecting and enhancing the values that caused it to be designated. Managing Agency Wild Wild rivers (W): Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments and generally inaccessible except by trail, with watersheds or shorelines essentially primitive and waters unpolluted. These represent vestiges of primitive America. www.rivers.gov Scenic Scenic rivers (S): Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments, with shorelines or watersheds still largely primitive and shorelines largely undeveloped, but accessible in places by roads. www.rivers.gov Recreational Recreational rivers (R): Those rivers or sections of rivers that are readily accessible by road or railroad, that may have some development along their shorelines, and that may have undergone some impoundment or diversion in the past. www.rivers.gov Potential_Classification String 254 0 0 Cultural_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a Cultural (C) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). The river or area within the river corridor contains archaeological sites or areas significant to traditional cultures. Examples might be American Indian burial grounds, petroglyphs, the oldest known human use site in a region, or streams that support traditional agriculture, subsistence fishing, or religious ceremonies. https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS Cultural_ORV String 3 0 0 Fish_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a Fish (F) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). Fish values may be judged on the relative merits of either fish populations, habitat, or a combination of these river-related conditions. (1) Populations: The river is nationally or regionally an important producer of resident and/or anadromous fish species. Of particular significance is the presence of wild stocks and/or federal or state listed (or candidate) threatened, endangered or sensitive species. Diversity of species is an important consideration and could, in itself, lead to a determination of "outstandingly remarkable." (2) Habitat: The river provides exceptionally high quality habitat for fish species indigenous to the region of comparison. Of particular significance is habitat for wild stocks and/or federal or state listed (or candidate) threatened, endangered or sensitive species. Diversity of habitats is an important consideration and could, in itself, lead to a determination of "outstandingly remarkable." https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS Fish_ORV String 3 0 0 Geologic_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a Geology (G) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). The river, or the area within the river corridor, contains one or more example of a geologic feature, process or phenomenon that is unique or rare within the region of comparison. The feature(s) may be in an unusually active stage of development, represent a "textbook" example, and/or represent a unique or rare combination of geologic features (erosional, volcanic, glacial, or other geologic structures). https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS Geologic_ORV String 3 0 0 History_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a History (H) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). The river or area within the river corridor contains a site(s) or feature(s) associated with a significant event, an important person, or a cultural activity of the past that was rare or one-of-a-kind in the region. Many such sites are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A historic site(s) and/or features(s) is 50 years old or older in most cases. https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS History_ORV String 3 0 0 Recreation_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a Recreation (R) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). Recreational opportunities are, or have the potential to be, popular enough to attract visitors from throughout or beyond the region of comparison or are unique or rare within the region. Visitors are willing to travel long distances to use the river resources for recreational purposes. River-related opportunities could include, but are not limited to, sightseeing, wildlife observation, camping, photography, hiking, fishing and boating. Interpretive opportunities may be exceptional and attract, or have the potential to attract, visitors from outside the region of comparison. The river may provide, or have the potential to provide, settings for national or regional usage or competitive events. https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS Recreation_ORV String 3 0 0 Scenic_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a Scenery (S) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). The landscape elements of landform, vegetation, water, color, and related factors result in notable or exemplary visual features and/or attractions. When analyzing scenic values, additional factors -- such as seasonal variations in vegetation, scale of cultural modifications, and the length of time negative intrusions are viewed -- may be considered. Scenery and visual attractions may be highly diverse over the majority of the river or river segment. https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS Scenic_ORV String 3 0 0 Wildlife_ORV Defines whether the river segment has a Wildlife (W) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). Wildlife values may be judged on the relative merits of either terrestrial or aquatic wildlife populations or habitat or a combination of these conditions. (1) Populations: The river, or area within the river corridor, contains nationally or regionally important populations of indigenous wildlife species. Of particular significance are species considered to be unique, and/or populations of federal or state listed (or candidate) threatened, endangered or sensitive species. Diversity of species is an important consideration and could, in itself, lead to a determination of "outstandingly remarkable." (2) Habitat: The river, or area within the river corridor, provides exceptionally high quality habitat for wildlife of national or regional significance, and/or may provide unique habitat or a critical link in habitat conditions for federal or state listed (or candidate) threatened, endangered or sensitive species. Contiguous habitat conditions are such that the biological needs of the species are met. Diversity of habitats is an important consideration and could, in itself, lead to a determination of "outstandingly remarkable." https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Yes Yes NPS No No NPS Wildlife_ORV String 3 0 0 Other_ORV Defines whether the river segment has an 'Other' (O) ORV (Outstanding Remarkable Value). While no specific national evaluation guidelines have been developed for the "other similar values" category, assessments of additional river-related values consistent with the foregoing guidance may be developed -- including, but not limited to, hydrology, paleontology and botany resources. https://www.nps.gov/subjects/rivers/eligibility.htm Manually entered ORV category.
