How many dams are in the chowan river basin?
According to my research, there are no dams on the Chowan or it's three tributaries. In the late'90s the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was looking into a flood control project for the Chowan River Basin. However, funding and a high cost to low benefit in terms of cost to build versus what would be saved, has probably kept the project from moving foward. That's my opinion, not a fact in that last sentence. For more information visit http://www.nao.usace.army.mil/Projects/Civil%20Works%20projects/Chowan%20River/homepage.asp. Hope that helped!
