The watershed is an important headwater to the Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds, is uniquely pristine, and is a recognized North American Coastal Plain global biodiversity hotspot. This area historically supported longleaf pine dominated ecosystems and their unique community of species, including the red-cockaded woodpecker. We will pursue funding to restore longleaf pine habitat for the red-cockaded woodpecker and priority migratory birds in coordination with partners, such as the Virginia Longleaf Pine Cooperators local implementation team (Regional Working Group for America’s Longleaf 2009). We will also support projects that restore or enhance habitat and water quality to promote conservation of Atlantic slope mussels (e.g., dwarf wedgemussel, Atlantic pigtoe). The watershed hosts multiple fisheries species of conservation concern and priority migratory bird species (see Service Trust Resources section). Roanoke logperch (see Roanoke Logperch Priority Area information below) also occurs in the Nottoway River drainage and we will work with our partners to engage in outreach and support survey efforts for Roanoke logperch as well as projects that enhance habitat and water quality such as barrier removal (restore connectivity), implementing agricultural BMPs (e.g., excluding livestock from streams), and stream and riparian restoration.
