摘要
The Augusta Canal launched an innovative economic development that created the first multi-user, multi-purpose, industrial district in the agrarian south. It was the first canal in the United States built for the multiple purposes of water power, water supply, and transportation, and is the only existing canal continuously operated for all of its original uses. The Augusta Canal is a civil engineering masterpiece of sustainability which provides a consistent source of renewable energy along with its recreational, educational, and economic development opportunities. On May 4th, 2018, the Augusta Canal and Industrial District was designated as an American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) national historic civil engineering landmark.
