Thanks to the water
Whether it's a stream, pond, lake, river or ocean, as long as history has been recorded, people have flocked to be near the water.

And whether we seek transportation, energy, food, or recreation, water meets our needs. So we treat water as one of our greatest natural resources — one we take great care to understand, respect, and protect.

Alabama's waters are no exception. They provide a host of benefits and uses including:
  • Hydroelectric power
  • Flood control
  • Recreation
  • Economic opportunity
  • Irrigation and drinking water
  • Fish and wildlife habitat
In many ways, Alabama's lakes and river systems are the lifeblood of their surrounding communities.
