This document discusses the declining water levels of the Little Plover River in central Wisconsin. It provides background on the river, noting that 90% of its flow comes from groundwater and it dried up completely in 2005. This is attributed to overuse of high-capacity wells in the area, which now number over 3,000 and can pump over 300 million gallons per day. Community groups like the Friends of the Little Plover River have advocated for conservation and education around the issue. The document highlights their annual river appreciation day where local students learn about the river ecosystem and threats to the watershed.
This document summarizes research on juvenile Chinook salmon use of small streams in Whidbey Basin. Key findings include:
- Juvenile Chinook from multiple populations use small streams, sometimes residing for months.
- Restoration increased Chinook presence in one stream, suggesting preference for low salinity habitat early in year.
- Ongoing research is examining Chinook patterns, growth, and origins in more small streams to understand their importance.
- Proper protection of these small streams and watersheds as Chinook habitat is questioned given their vulnerability and importance.
Volunteer boaters will participate in removing derelict crab traps from six Tampa Bay locations on July 11 due to a regional closure of the blue crab fishery from July 10-19. The closure is mandated by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to help remove abandoned traps that continue to catch crabs and other species, posing risks to wildlife and navigation. Tampa Bay Watch has removed over 1,400 traps through previous cleanup efforts and estimates thousands more remain, so the event aims to further preserve the bay by removing debris and protecting marine life.
The document discusses the possibility of restoring rapids to the Mississippi River Gorge by removing two dams. It notes that restoring the rapids could provide ecological and recreational benefits but would also involve challenges. Researching the feasibility and impacts would require funding current studies lack. Additionally, modifying the heavily engineered river could be difficult after two centuries of development. While restoring the river's natural state could benefit the region, the complex technical, economic and regulatory hurdles have prevented plans from moving forward.

Casitas Municipal Water District is experiencing a drought, with water storage levels at Lake Casitas at their lowest point since 1967 and currently holding only 42.1% of total storage capacity. In response, the District has implemented a water allocation and conservation program that assigns individual water budgets, implements watering restrictions and prohibitions, offers rebates for water-efficient devices, and conducts outreach campaigns to encourage customers to reduce water use. Direct urban water use has been reduced by hundreds of acre-feet per month between 2013-2015 through these conservation efforts. The District is working with a consulting firm to complete its 2015 Urban Water Management Plan to address the ongoing drought conditions.
This document provides information on several reservoirs in Montana:
- East Fork of Rock Creek Dam and Painted Rocks Dam are currently at 71% and 100% capacity respectively, providing irrigation water to acres of land.
- Fred Burr Dam and Nevada Creek Dam are at lower storage levels, providing irrigation water to fewer acres than normal.
- The majority of state water project reservoirs started the water year with average or below average levels due to dry conditions the previous summer, though spring rains have increased the water supply outlook somewhat.
(See notes below) Four hundred years ago, the Chesapeake Bay that the English colonists found here was lined with huge oyster reefs that grew up from the bottom in waters both deep and shallow. Those reefs provided the base for much of the life in the Bay and its rivers, from worms and barnacles through mud crabs and tiny fish to big blue crabs and predators like sheepshead, drum, and rockfish (striped bass).
The oyster reefs weren’t as “pretty” (to us humans) as the coral reefs further south, but in terms of ecosystem richness, they were just as important. One key to their strength was their three-dimensional structure, which successive generations built gradually on the shells of their predecessors over several thousands of years. The structures placed the oysters up in the water column, away from gill-choking bottom sediments, where dissolved oxygen was plentiful and currents brought food in the form of algae cells seeking sunlight.
This PowerPoint presentation, developed by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation’s Fisheries Program Director Bill Goldsborough, tells the story of those reefs and what has happened to them over the past four hundred years. It is not a pretty story, but it offers a hopeful conclusion, as we learn more each year about how to restore these essential elements in the Chesapeake ecosystem.
Anglers have as much to gain as anyone in restoring the Chesapeake’s oysters. The presentation closes with suggestions for how to get involved in oyster restoration, and how to incorporate the restoration reefs into your 2015 angling season.

This document discusses the threats posed by a proposed large factory farm, called Badgerwood LLC, to the health of Lake Superior and local communities. The farm would house over 26,000 pigs and produce 8.7 million gallons of liquid manure per year, far more than existing family farms in the region. Local activists are concerned this waste could contaminate the lake and surrounding areas through runoff, potentially closing beaches and harming fishing and tourism. The large scale of the operation and lack of oversight also raise worries about antibiotic resistance and impacts to local roads, property values, and public health. Opponents argue the farm prioritizes corporate profits over environmental stewardship and the existing agricultural system.
The document summarizes ecological changes over time at three lakes in Watsonville, California - College Lake, Kelley Lake, and Pinto Lake. It discusses how human activities like farming, transportation, and development have disrupted natural processes at the lakes. It provides details on the lakes' histories and current statuses, including drainage of College and Pinto Lakes into the ocean each year. The document also examines the native and invasive fish species found at College and Pinto Lakes, such as steelhead trout, brown bullhead catfish, and carp. Maps with directions to each lake are included.
Shirley Chisholm State Park-Brooklyn Update on phase two workecowatchers
An update by Leslie Wright director of NY state Parks on the planned future work for phase two in the newly created Shirley Chisholm State Park in Brooklyn NY
The document discusses the history of pollution and restoration efforts in the Willamette River in Oregon. It describes how the river was once declared an "open sewer" but water quality has improved due to various regulatory actions from the 1930s onward. However, the river and its fish populations still face threats including invasive species, pollution, and lack of access to cold water refuges during heat waves. Overall restoration progress depends on coordinated long-term efforts to improve habitat complexity and allow natural floodplain dynamics.
This document summarizes water usage statistics for Louisiana and other states. It reports that the average per capita domestic water use in Louisiana is 104 gallons per day, lower than Idaho, Utah, Arizona, and Hawaii. The total water use in Louisiana is 6,900 million gallons per day, with 63% used for power generation, agriculture, industry, and sewage. Major threats to Louisiana's water resources include industrial and agricultural impairment, subsidence, and saltwater intrusion into aquifers.
OLA 2009 -- 25 years-- a silver lined anniversaryPaul Robertson
Twenty-five years of lake management on Devils Lake in Oregon was celebrated as a silver anniversary. The lake has faced many challenges over the decades from excessive algae and weed growth due to sewage and agricultural runoff. In the 1980s, grass carp were introduced to control the weeds, which led to the total eradication of submerged plants but also harmful algae blooms. Today, the Devils Lake Water Improvement District continues efforts like water quality monitoring, septic system improvements, and native plant revegetation to improve the lake's health.
The opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959 unintentionally unleashed a biological plague on the Great Lakes. The Seaway allowed ocean freighters access to the lakes for the first time, and these ships dumped billions of gallons of untreated ballast water containing foreign species. Many of these invasive species caused profound ecological changes, including the proliferation of quagga and zebra mussels that depleted food sources for fish. While the Seaway provided some economic benefits, it has had major environmental costs including the introduction of over 50 invasive species that have disrupted fisheries and ecosystems. The lakes remain under threat from additional invaders like Asian carp spreading from other waterways.
The document summarizes issues surrounding a proposed water extraction project on the Gorman Hills in Los Angeles County. The Sierra Club has filed a lawsuit against the project due to concerns about impacts to local water supply and wildlife. Questions have been raised about the hydrological assessment and potential effects on wetland areas and local housing development. The Sierra Club believes the project requires further legal review given air quality, traffic, and biological survey issues. The document also provides updates on other environmental news including Senate approval of North Coast wilderness legislation and pro-environment leadership appointments in the California state legislature.
First Nations have a strong spiritual and cultural connection to water. Elders teach that water is sacred and must be respected. Traditional practices such as fishing, transportation, and ceremonies involve water. While some traditional practices continue, many communities face water quality issues. The Yellow Quill First Nation installed a new treatment plant using natural processes to address past boil water advisories. Northern communities are concerned about impacts of uranium mining on surrounding waters.
The document provides an overview of restoration efforts at the Willoughby Preserve that have benefited both the local community and wildlife. It describes how volunteers have removed over 10 acres of invasive vegetation and 900 tons of trash left by illicit campers over the past few years. As a result, native plant life is rebounding and more wildlife, including deer, bobcats, and various birds, are being seen on the preserve. The restoration is making the area safer for public use and recreation, while also improving water quality in the Ventura River watershed by reducing trash. The conservancy plans to add trail and interpretive improvements to further enhance public access and appreciation of the natural habitat.
The document summarizes a research project on developing the Vermillion River in Minnesota into a water trail for recreational activities like canoeing and kayaking. The river flows 38 miles through open fields and forests before reaching Vermillion Falls. The project identified potential access points along the river for canoes and in the gorge area for kayaking. It also explored the process needed to designate the river as an official recreation river. The research was presented to local governments and involved analyzing sites, stakeholder input, best practices, and political considerations to understand the feasibility of a water trail.

2011 annual mtg ais presentation website versionCarolynne White
The document discusses efforts to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species (AIS), particularly zebra mussels, into Hubbard County lakes. It summarizes:
1) Funding for AIS inspection hours was obtained from various township and county sources but funding is in jeopardy for 2012 due to reductions.
2) Zebra mussels pose serious threats to native species and lake ecosystems by attaching to surfaces and filtering plankton. They have spread rapidly across many lakes in Minnesota.
3) Preventing the spread of zebra mussels to Hubbard County lakes is a priority, and volunteer monitoring and watercraft inspection programs need more support to protect lakes like Long Lake.
The document summarizes conditions in Puget Sound related to warm water anomalies, drought, and impacts on marine ecosystems. It notes that 2014 and early 2015 saw the warmest temperatures since 1981 due to a warm water blob in the Pacific. This, combined with low snowpack due to drought, led to record low river flows into Puget Sound. The warm water entered Puget Sound in late 2014 and 2015, bringing higher temperatures and lower oxygen levels. Observations from aerial photos and ferries detected large jellyfish blooms and algal blooms, indicating the marine food web may be changing.

terminal moraine, flows west through the Town of Plover and the Village of Plover,
where it forms Springville Pond, and then joins the Wisconsin River.
7. Facts of the Little Plover
90% of flow is from Groundwater
Class I premier cold water trout stream
Most studied River in America
We have been warned since 1965 in report after
report of the pending dry up of the Little Plover
River
– 1965 Weeks study
– 1985 Hunt study
– 1997 Lampert & Lee watershed management study (this
report accurately predicted the dry up of the Little Plover in
2005)
As predicted, the Little Plover dried up in 2005
– The dry up was so severe that brook trout died and this
dry up continues 5 years later in 2010
– The ecosystem was been harmed

(MOVE TO TEXT BOX The Little Plover starts in the town of Stockton, just below the terminal moraine, flows west through the village of Plover, forms the Springville Pond, and then joins the Wisconsin River. This river gets about 90% of its water from groundwater, which bubbles up from the ground to wetlands and springs along the river corridor. The cold groundwater allows the stream to support a coldwater ecosystem that includes a native, naturally reproducing Brook Trout population. This, combined with its scenic beauty and recreational opportunities, has made the Little Plover a community treasure for decades. But the stream seems to have deteriorated, especially over the last few years, and concerns are arising about what the Little Plover will look like in 20 years. The time is now for good community stewards to work together to restore the river to its former health.
