the Cashie River near its confluence with the Roanoke River, is located in 

 Bertie County. The Hoggard Mill Creek study area extended approx- 

 imately 9.3 stream km downstream from the Bertie County SR 1301 

 bridge on Cucklemaker Swamp and the SR 1001 bridge on Flat Swamp 

 (Fig. 1). The main stream channels of both streams were measured and 

 divided into 0.4 kilometer study sections. 



Both streams varied considerably in size within the study area. Main 

 stream channels were generally 2 to 8 m wide and a few cm to 6 m deep.
