Big Sandy Mitigation Bank protects a stretch of approximately 4.0 miles on both sides of Big Sandy Creek and South Sandy Creek, a major tributary to the Black Warrior River and one of the most scenic rivers in Alabama. The site is adjacent to the Talladega National Forest. Re-establishing this segment of the Big Sandy Creek ecosystem will increase the likelihood of long-term survival and species richness for aquatic biota and wetland wildlife.
