		It is not to be confused with Northern Dvina.

	History of Kotlas
		With the opening of the navigation season in 1918, an active transfer of military equipment from Archangel via the Northern Dvina to Kotlas began, as the threat of the seizure of Archangel had grown due to the landing of the first forces of the interventionists in the region of Murmansk [in March 1918].
		The Allies thought that their forces would be able to move south up the Northern Dvina to the railhead at Kotlas and then to Vyatka to join a larger and better armed Czechoslovak force that would fight its way west along the Trans-Siberian Railroad.
		As the fleet of the Northern Dvina wore out and ceased to be able to handle the cargo, construction began in Limenda of a boat-building and repair yard.

		This gauge is located on a channel connecting two outflows of this river system - flow divides in the downstream direction with part flowing in the main stem (Severnaya Dvina) and another portion flows north to the baltic sea (Kuloy).
		Since flows in these two channels are not readily accessible, the division of flow is assumed to follow the division of area.
		When this basin is placed in the context of the surrounding basins (see figure in appendix), it's clear the missing area is from the northwest (not in any basin) and the northeast (the area excluded in correcting the Severnaya Dvina system).
