West Fork Choctawhatchee River at Hwy 27 (Browns Crossing)

Ozark, Alabama, United States

  • Water Quality Status

Choctawhatchee Riverkeeper until recently never collected a sample at this site which had E. coli high enough to create a concern.

Historical data for this site is available on the Alabama Water Watch website http://www.alabamawaterwatch.org/ under Site Code 04007020.

The West Fork from near the mouth of Judy Creek to about 1/2 mile upstream of this site is classified for fish and wildlife and lacks a swimming use designation despite historical recreational use. This appears to violate the Clean Water Act.
