Kentucky Wild Rivers (Corridors)

Portions of nine rivers of exceptional quality and aesthetic character were designated as Kentucky Wild Rivers in 1972. Each Wild River is actually a linear corridor encompassing all visible land on each side of the river up to a distance of no more than 2,000 feet. The nine Wild River corridors comprise a total of 114 river miles and 26,961 acres of land. Each section of river is protected in a free flowing state and provides areas for the perpetuation of Kentucky’s wild fauna and flora as well as recreational opportunity. Regardless of ownership, which varies across each section, the Wild River Act sets forth certain restrictions of allowable activities to protect and preserve these areas for future generations. https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/law/statutes/chapter.aspx?id=37693 Onlink Url: https://ky.box.com/v/kymartian-wild-rivers1972年，九条水质卓越、兼具美学特质的河段被指定为肯塔基州野生河流（Kentucky Wild Rivers）。每一条野生河流均为线性廊道，涵盖河道两侧可见范围内不超过2000英尺的全部土地。该九条野生河流廊道总长共计114河英里，总占地面积达26961英亩。每一段河道均以自然流动状态受到保护，为肯塔基州本土野生动植物的存续提供了适宜空间，同时也为休闲活动提供了场地。尽管各河段的所有权存在差异，《野生河流法案》（Wild River Act）仍明确了一系列可开展活动的限制条款，以保护并留存这些区域以供后世子孙使用。https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/law/statutes/chapter.aspx?id=37693 在线链接：https://ky.box.com/v/kymartian-wild-rivers
