The watershed is primarily rural and mountainous, with agriculture and forestry as the main land uses. There are no significant dams on the stream, but several smaller dams and impoundments exist. Seasonal trends show that flows peak in the spring due to snowmelt, and decrease in the summer and fall. Interestingly, the stream is home to several species of freshwater mussels, including the endangered Appalachian elktoe. Additionally, the stream has a long history of coal mining, which has impacted water quality in the past.
