The Buffalo National River is America's First National River, with over 1 million visitors annually who expect and deserve to swim, fish, paddle, and play in the clean and pristine river waters free from factory hog farming! By protecting Big Creek, a critical and immediate tributary of the Buffalo National River from factory hog farming, the legacy of America's First National River will remain a source of pride for the people and stewards of the National Park Service, the Great State of Arkansas, and all Americans for generations of visitors to come.
