River Basins
Wake County is split between two River Basins (6-digit Hydrologic Unit Code), the Cape Fear River Basin and Neuse River Basins. River basins are determined by the US Geological Survey (USGS). USGS delineates drainage areas at 6 different levels all nesting within each other. These levels start at a regional scale and are given a 2-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC). Two digits are added to the code at each level as it progresses to a smaller drainage area. River basins are at the third level and designated with a 6-digit HUC. Additional information about USGS's WDB can be found at this link.If you would like to find out more about River Basins across the state of NC, visit the Find Your HUC website.
