The Locust Fork, in North Central Alabama, is one of three major tributaries of the Black Warrior River. The river features several stretches of whitewater, and is popular with canoers and kayakers. In the late 1980s, the Birmingham Water Works proposed damming the river as a source of drinking water. The plan was controversial, and has been suspended.Fact|date=April 2008
