This document tells the story of sediment traveling through the Delaware River watershed and estuary, picking up nutrients, contaminants, and various organism friends along the way, including freshwater mussels, oysters, and ribbed mussels in tidal wetlands. It highlights the role of these organisms, particularly shellfish, in filtering sediment and improving water quality. The document also notes partnerships that work to reduce sediment upstream and protect tidal wetlands, and calls for new partners to help the next generation of sediment.

Evan Brown Letter of Recommendation
The Boise River Beaver Control Project in the 1990s aimed to stabilize the beaver population along the Boise River to minimize impacts on riparian areas and conflicts with landowners, while also reestablishing beavers in unoccupied suitable habitats. The project live trapped beavers using clam shell traps rather than killing them. Trapped breeding pairs were sterilized and released, while juveniles and subadults were released or relocated. Volunteers protected trees from harvesting to allow beavers access to food sources without risking tree falls. The holistic approach established a sustainable solution through compromise.

Caught Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Monitoring Chinook Salmon in Californ...
Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) undertake some of the most well-known and well-studied migrations in the animal kingdom. Following extensive migrations through riverine and marine environments, salmon in California’s Central Valley return to highly altered and spatially constrained freshwater spawning habitats. Millions of dollars are spent annually to monitor these migrations and mitigate the effects of habitat loss and hydropower operation on freshwater spawning and rearing habitat. Yet, populations remain imperiled due to increasing water temperatures, water diversions, channel alterations, high predation rates, and replacement of wild stocks with straying hatchery stocks. The Stanislaus River has one of the most comprehensive and longest running life-cycle monitoring programs in the Central Valley. Monitoring activities are designed to track the abundance, distribution, migration characteristics, and habitat use of Chinook salmon, using a variety of different sampling methods and technologies. Rotary screw trap monitoring is used to characterize juvenile downstream migration, while a fish counting weir is used to monitor upstream migration of adults. Snorkel and seining surveys document abundance and habitat use, redd and carcass surveys document spawning, collect biological samples and coded-wire-tags. These data will inform flow management and habitat enhancement to provide suitable conditions for multiple life stages of Chinook salmon.

2013 HOW Conference: Climate Change Exacerbates Rain-Related Disease Risk
2013 HOW Conference: Climate Change Exacerbates Rain-Related Disease Risk Healthy Lakes, Healthy Lives
Climate change is exacerbating rain-related disease risk. Models project significant increases in the frequency and intensity of intense rainfall events in Wisconsin by 2055 due to climate change. More frequent and intense storms increase the risk of waterborne diseases by overwhelming aging infrastructure and increasing pathogen runoff into water sources. Studies have shown increases in acute gastrointestinal illnesses, especially in children, following heavy rainfall events. Contaminated groundwater from failing septic systems also poses a disease risk. Climate change impacts like more frequent extreme rainfall events threaten greater waterborne disease outbreaks unless infrastructure is upgraded and policies are implemented to mitigate risks.11 floods in pakistan essay in english the college study
Floods in Pakistan are an annual occurrence caused by heavy monsoon rains. While floods provide some benefits by depositing fertile soil and transporting resources, they often cause widespread devastation. They destroy homes, crops, infrastructure and claim many lives, particularly impacting poor and vulnerable groups. Both natural factors like heavy rainfall and human activities like deforestation contribute to flooding. To reduce floods, experts recommend large-scale afforestation and stopping environmental destruction, as well as building dams and linking rivers. The 1992 and 2014 floods were especially severe and costly disasters for Pakistan.
Discussion 3
When Michigan officials switched Flint's water source from Lake Huron to the highly corrosive Flint River in 2014 in an effort to save money, it introduced lead into the city's water supply. Residents complained about the water's appearance, smell, and taste, but were assured it was safe to drink. In late 2015, a Virginia Tech study found high lead levels in Flint homes, contradicting claims by the state. Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha also found elevated blood lead levels in Flint children. Her findings were initially attacked but later confirmed. The water switch violated federal law by not treating the corrosive river water, which caused lead to leach from pipes into hundreds of homes.
The silver carp.pptx joe
The silver carp is an invasive fish species from China that was introduced to the United States through flooding of the Mississippi River. It has since spread widely, weighing up to 100 lbs and jumping several feet out of the water. The silver carp threatens native fish populations and harms fishing industries by eating large amounts of plankton and native fish. Efforts are underway to control its spread, including erecting electric barriers and increasing fishing of the species, but it poses a severe risk if introduced to the Great Lakes.

Flint Michigan Water Crisis: A Shattering of Public Trust
This document summarizes the Flint water crisis which eroded public trust in authorities. The contaminated Flint River water caused lead poisoning and a Legionnaires' disease outbreak. Residents expressed a sense of betrayal as authorities denied problems for over a year. Interviews with residents show they no longer trust the water system and will likely never trust authorities again. Efforts to regain trust through public challenges to drink the water and minimizing complaints failed. The crisis was one of the worst environmental justice disasters according to experts and showed the importance of transparency, honesty and consistent performance in maintaining public trust.

This document discusses managing the Broads, a wetland area in the UK, for biodiversity and water issues. It faces challenges like nutrient and sediment input, invasive species, climate change, and lack of long-term data. Solutions discussed include creating an ecological network, managing nutrient levels, controlling invasive species, and improving habitat and species evidence through projects like a biodiversity audit map. The goal is integrated management that provides ecosystem services and protects assets, following targets for biodiversity and water quality.Green Water or Clean Water - Betsy Lawton
The document discusses establishing numeric nutrient criteria for surface waters. It notes that while EPA expected states to create such criteria by 2003, many states have not due to the costs of implementing them. It argues that numeric nutrient criteria will help drive water quality assessments, support nutrient total maximum daily load development, and create environmental baselines to better manage nutrient pollution. The document calls on states to establish these important standards to protect water quality and recreational uses.

Dcla web page version v2
Douglas County lakes and streams are important for recreation and provide over 20% of the tax base, but water quality cannot be taken for granted as some are impaired. Zebra mussels are changing lake ecology by increasing water clarity and vegetation growth. Excess nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen from sources like lawns, storm runoff, and septic systems contribute to algae blooms and lake impairment, reducing property values. Grants are available to address water quality, but require matching funds. A Douglas County Water Quality Legacy Fund was created to provide these matching funds and protect water resources for future generations.
OEC Vernal Pool Workshop 2013
Presentation by the Ohio Environmental Council and Ohio Wetlands Association at the 2013 Vernal Pool Workshop.
Charity
Charity: Water works to address water problems in developing nations. Women and children often walk long distances each day to collect contaminated water, spending more time on this task than any other activity. This lack of access to clean water means children cannot get an education and there are health risks like diarrhea, dehydration, and death from drinking contaminated supplies. Charity: Water builds water filtration systems and wells near villages to provide clean water access, allowing families more time for other tasks and improving community health. Donations of $20 can provide clean water for one person through their efforts.
Asian Carp: An Invasive Species
This document discusses invasive bighead and silver carp species that were introduced to the US in the 1970s but are now causing major problems. It notes that these filter-feeding carp eat large amounts of plankton and outcompete native fish, reproducing rapidly. It covers government efforts to control the carp population through electric barriers and fishing tournaments, as well as developing commercial markets for the fish.
Yil me hu Spring 2017
This article discusses the important role that volunteers play in restoring habitat in the Nisqually Watershed. It notes that volunteers dedicate significant time and effort to activities like planting trees, removing invasive plants, monitoring fish and wildlife, and educating the community. Specifically, it highlights that over 700 adults and 2,200 students have contributed over 6,000 hours to restoration plantings in the Ohop Valley. Volunteers also conduct long-term water quality and salmon monitoring efforts. The article promotes upcoming volunteer opportunities in the watershed.
COSWF_50th-Supplement_LR_XX
The document discusses the history of conservation efforts in Southwest Florida over the past 50 years led by the Conservancy of Southwest Florida. It summarizes that the Conservancy was founded in the 1960s to protect Rookery Bay from development, and has since expanded its work to include land acquisition, environmental research, education, and advocacy to promote balanced growth and water quality protection. The Conservancy has helped preserve over 100,000 acres and faces ongoing challenges around population growth and water pollution, but remains committed to conservation for future generations.
Intro to KVHA
The document summarizes the Kansas River Watershed Enhancement Initiative. It discusses the goals of building awareness of the cultural and natural resources of the Kansas River Valley through consensus building and grassroots partnerships. It highlights various projects and organizations working to improve water quality, including the Kaw Valley Heritage Alliance, stream teams, and efforts around the Wakarusa River and Clinton Lake watersheds.
Below the Surface
The document discusses the debate around keeping dolphins and whales in captivity. It notes negatives of captivity including removing the animals from their natural environment and social groups. This can cause depression in some animals, as seen with drooping dorsal fins and violent outbreaks. However, proponents argue that aquariums provide public education and entertainment, and help conservation through research and breeding programs. But critics say the animals' lives are not natural or fulfilling in small tanks, and their treatment can be considered exploitation rather than education.
Asian Carp: An Invasive Species
Silver and bighead carp, invasive species originally brought to the US from Asia in the 1970s, have overpopulated the Illinois River and are threatening to enter the Great Lakes. These filter-feeding carp consume large amounts of plankton and outcompete native fish, while their population continues to grow rapidly. Various control methods have been attempted, including commercial fishing tournaments and plans to install electric barriers at channels connecting to the Great Lakes. Some efforts promote eating the carp as an alternative protein source.
Water first nations ws8.1
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.

Conservation Voters of PA
The document discusses the results of a public opinion poll regarding a congressional race in Pennsylvania's 16th district. The poll found that incumbent Joe Pitts initially led his Democratic challenger Tom Houghton by 8 points. However, when voters in Lancaster County, which makes up most of the district, were provided information about Pitts' support for a proposed gas pipeline project and donations from the company, and Houghton's opposition, Pitts' lead disappeared and the race was tied at 41-41. The pipeline message had the biggest impact on Republicans and independents in Lancaster County.

Improving Surface and Ground Water Quality via Agricultural Lands: Two Lancas...
This document provides two case studies on improving surface and ground water quality through agricultural best management practices (BMPs) in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
The first case study describes a BMP assessment conducted in West Lampeter Township, where farms over 10 acres were visited to document existing BMPs and identify opportunities for improved water quality and farmer partnerships. Over 50% of identified BMPs were not documented in conservation plans. The assessment results will help identify priority areas for implementing additional BMPs.
The second case study outlines a source water protection collaborative for Eastern Lancaster County, where high nitrate levels threaten drinking water sources. An education workshop attracted 400 farmers. An agricultural committee is facilitating ongoing farmer outreach and free well testing, with a
Unlock the Secrets in the Soil
The document summarizes the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, which was caused by years of severe drought that destroyed crops and exposed dry topsoil to powerful winds. Millions of tons of topsoil blew eastward, depositing sediment as far away as the Atlantic Ocean. In response, the Soil Conservation Service (now the Natural Resources Conservation Service) was established in 1935 to address soil erosion and conservation. The document then provides examples of dust storms in 1934 South Dakota and 2011 Arizona to illustrate that dust storms remain an issue. It outlines the NRCS approach of Avoiding, Controlling, and Trapping pollutants using various conservation practices and highlights New Jersey's 2014 Soil Health Initiative promoting the use of cover crops.
Avoiding Excess Nutrient Applications
Farmers in Northampton County primarily operate cash grain operations on about a third of the available cropland. Avoiding excess nutrient applications starts with planning and using fertility decision support tools that analyze multiple inputs like soil tests, in-season plant analysis, and nitrogen prediction models. Precision agriculture helps manage variability, increases overall nutrient use efficiency, but requires a major investment in specialized equipment and analysis.
Investing in Natural Infrastructure Provides Multiple Benefits to Communities
Ecological restoration projects provide multiple economic benefits to communities. For example, a natural infrastructure project completed in 2007 at Cape May Point, New Jersey that restored lower Cape May Meadows reduced flood damage costs by an estimated $9.6 million over 50 years. The project was also found to provide $200 million in economic impact for Cape May County and support the region's $5.5 billion tourism industry. Lessons from the case study highlight the importance of clearly defining objectives, collecting economic baseline data, and leveraging the multiple benefits of natural infrastructure projects.
Lehigh Valley Return on Environment Study
This document summarizes the results of a study on the economic value of natural lands and environmental services in the Lehigh Valley region of Pennsylvania. It finds that:
1) Natural lands like forests and wetlands provide services worth $105-849 million annually, including flood mitigation, water purification, habitat and more.
2) Trees remove $48 million worth of air pollutants annually and sequester $3.6 million in carbon.
3) Outdoor recreation supported by natural areas contributes $236-556 million annually in economic output and supports over 4,000 jobs.
4) Proximity to open space increases nearby property values by up to 14%, representing $1.87 billion
What's a River Worth
This document summarizes an economic impact study on the cold water fishing and boating industries along the Upper Delaware River. It finds that these industries generate $414 million annually for the local economy. However, inconsistent water flow releases from upstream reservoirs have negatively impacted the fishing industry in recent years. Maintaining more consistent water levels could boost the economic benefits by $274 million. The study examined expenditures by anglers and boaters, economic multipliers, and contributions to local businesses to determine the industries' total economic impact.
Protecting Water Resources in Lower Saucon Township
The document discusses Lower Saucon Township's Natural Resource Protection Overlay Zoning Ordinance. The ordinance aims to protect natural resources such as wetlands, floodplains, woodlands, and steep slopes by establishing protection rates for these areas. For example, floodplains and wetlands have a 100% protection rate where no development is permitted. Wetland buffers have an 85% protection rate. The township also focuses on outreach and partnerships to educate residents on protecting water resources and establishing streamside buffers.
Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed Presents: 2nd Annual Delaware Rive...
The Pennsylvania Stormwater Management Act of 1978 (Act 167) requires counties to develop watershed plans to coordinate stormwater management across municipal boundaries, outlines 13 required plan elements, and places responsibilities on counties and municipalities to adopt and implement ordinances consistent with approved watershed plans. The Lehigh Valley Planning Commission assists Lehigh and Northampton Counties in developing hydrologic models and watershed plans under Act 167, and provides review of municipal ordinances to ensure consistency with watershed plans. Act 167 plans aim to balance development and flood control through release rate criteria, while more recent plans also incorporate water quality requirements.
Meet the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
The document introduces the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, a federal agency within the United States Department of the Interior dedicated to the management of fish, wildlife, and natural habitats. The agency works to protect endangered species and their ecosystems, as well as manage migratory birds, certain marine mammals, and sport fish. It also oversees the enforcement of federal wildlife laws, international wildlife trade, and environmental contaminants that affect wildlife.
Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed
The document discusses the Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC), which was created by interstate compact in 1961 to manage water resources in the Delaware River Basin. The DRBC was formed to address issues like water supply shortages, flooding, and pollution that individual states could not adequately solve alone. The DRBC regulates water withdrawals and discharges, floodplains, and other projects affecting water resources. It also updates a comprehensive water management plan every 5 years and declares drought warnings when needed. The DRBC works collaboratively with the states through administrative agreements.
