What the runs do here
Dan River carries no anadromous run on our corridor map, so
this page makes no claim about salmon or steelhead at this dam. What it sits on is coldwater —
resident trout water — and the section below says which classification says so.

Status
Under Investigation, Planning, Permitting, or Design for Remediation
From the National Inventory of Dams (USACE). Hazard potential is a
downstream-consequence classification, not a statement about the structure's condition.
Coldwater designation is the state's own classification. A dam sits on one river and this list
is every designated reach within a mile and a half of it, so a tributary mouth shows up here too.
Live from USGS. A gauge miles away
is a gauge miles away — the distance column is there so you can discount it. A hydro dam's
releases move the flow below it on a schedule the gauge sees and this page does not.
