Hydrologic Unit Code or "HUC" means a watershed unit established in the most recent version of Virginia's 6th Order National Watershed Boundary Dataset unless specifically identified as another order.

Hydrologic Unit Code or "HUC" means a numeric United States Geological Survey code that corresponds to a watershed area. Each area also has a text description associated with the numeric code.

Examples of Hydrologic Unit Code in a sentence

• The WRP uses the Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) watersheds at two scales: HUC 4 and HUC 6, where HUC 4 watersheds are mostly larger than 500 square kilometers and HUC 6 watersheds are entirely nested within HUC 4 watersheds and mostly larger than 200 square kilometers.

• The ledger will identify the Client, credits purchased, farm tract number, location (county and Hydrologic Unit Code) and the acres of impacted wetlands mitigated pursuant to this Mitigation Agreement.

• Development of a two-dimensional (2D) hydraulic model to perform high-level planning and analysis for the entirety of the Green Creek-North Bosque River Watershed (Hydrologic Unit Code 1206020401).

• Utilize staff input and results from Task 4 and 5 to identify up to five (5) critical flood hazard areas within the Green Creek-North Bosque River Watershed (Hydrologic Unit Code 1206020401).

• Both the on-site and off-site wetland mitigation sites will mitigate for all wetland impacts associated with the S.R. 0001, Group 03S, Section RC2 Roadway Improvement Project (Section RC1 does not require wetland impacts) and are located within the same Hydrologic Unit Code (02-04-02), the Delaware River Basin.

Hydrologic Unit Code or “HUC” means the hydrologic cataloging unit assigned to a geographic area representing a surface watershed drainage basin. Each unit is assigned a two- to 12-digit number that uniquely identifies each of the six levels of classification within six two-digit fields. United States Geological Survey (USGS), Hydrologic Unit Codes (HUCs) Explained, https://nas.er.usgs.gov/hucs.aspx (last visited an. 26, 2024). Eight-digit HUCs are used for large watersheds known as subbasins; 10-digit HUCs divide the large subbasins into watersheds; and 12-digit HUCs divide watersheds into subwatersheds that capture local tributary systems.
