The Economic Improvement of the Coosa and Alabama Rivers, in Georgia and Alabama
The Coosa River is formed by the junction of the Oostanaula and Etowah Rivers at Rome, Ga., which streams have their sources in the mountains of Northern Georgia.
The Oostanaula and its tributary, the Coosawattee, are navigable the year round for light-draft boats from Rome, Ga., to Carter's Landing, a distance of 105 miles.
The Coosa has always been navigable from Rome, Ga., to Greensport, Ala., a distance of 162 miles. From Greensport to Lock No. 4, Ala., a distance of 26 miles, the river has been made navigable for boats of 4-ft. draft by the construction of three locks and four dams, and by channel excavation at points between the dams.
