About 7 percent of all coal mined in the Nation comes from an area of 5, mi² in the Appalachian Plateaus part of the Kanawha–New River Basin. Production of the mostly low-sulfur coal nearly doubled from to as mining technology advanced, .
The Kanawha River continues to flow northwestward through West Virginia to its confluence with the Ohio River at Point Pleasant, West Virginia, river sdles below Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The basin embraces ab square miles of which 8,^50 are in West Virginia, 3, in Virginia .

The current state record is an impressive inch, pound specimen that was caught way back in from the Little Kanawha River by L.L. McClung. The state's flathead record has stood for a long time, but over the past few years several pound-plus flatheads have been caught, and each year, flathead catches creep closer to the record.

The stream has been impounded near Burnsville, WV, as Burnsville Lake, centerpiece of the Burnsville Lake Wildlife Management Area. The river is also a feature in the Fallout 76 video game. The Lower Kanawha River watershed is one of 32 watersheds in West Virginia.
The Kanawha River was divided into upper and lower sections, as were several other large river basins. The lower section includes the mainstem Kanawha River downstream from the Elk River and all tributaries of this section.
Three other types of watershed units were devised for manageability: (1) clusters of small tributaries that drain directly into a larger mainstem stream (e.g., Potomac River Direct Drains Watershed); (2) the West Virginia parts of interstate basins (e.g., Tug Fork Watershed); and (3) divisions of large watersheds (e.g., Upper and Lower Kanawha.
