About the fenholloway river


The Fenholloway River is a 24-mile-long river in northern Florida that flows through Taylor County and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Historically, the river was used for timber transportation and as an industrial waste discharge site, leading to significant pollution. The river's hydrology is influenced by nearby wetlands, with a mean discharge of 153 cubic feet per second. The Buckeye Cellulose Corporation operates a pulp mill on the river, and the company has built several reservoirs and dams for water management purposes. The river supports a diverse range of wildlife, including manatees and various fish species. Recreational activities such as fishing and boating are popular on the river, and the surrounding agricultural lands are used for cattle grazing and timber production.
