| | 141: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2006 October | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The plan contains best management practice recommendations for each of the twelve watersheds to promote continued water quality improvement. This section includes a prioritized listing of the twelve subwatersheds for future restoration activities from highest to lowest priority. This should help the watershed planning committee more effectively target their restoration activities for maximum water quality benefit. | | | | Date Created: | 11 29 2006 | | | | Agency ID: | Research Publication No. NS-019 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041178 Original UID: 21133 FIRST WORD: Rayse | |
| 142: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2005 July 19 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Villa Park is in the Salt Creek watershed (WSID ILGL09) along segment GL09. This segment of the Creek is rated as partial support for overall use and aquatic life and nonsupport for swimming according to the 2000 Illinois Water Quality Report. The impairments are reported to be caused by priority organics, PCBs, excess nutrients including phosphorus, nitrogen and nitrates, salinity/TDS/chlorides, flow alteration, and excessive algal growth/chlorophyll a. The sources of pollutants are listed as municipal point sources including combined sewer overflows, collection system failures, urban runoff/storm-sewers, hydrologic/habitat modifications, upstream impoundment, flow regulation and modification, and contaminated sediments. Many of the causes and sources listed above are related to urban runoff, which is largely unregulated at this time. Thus, implementing and providing examples of best management practices to cleanse and reduce volumes of urban stormwater runoff is greatly needed in this largely built out watershed. | | | | Date Created: | 07 19 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | Financial Assistance Number 3190310 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041179 Original UID: 21134 FIRST WORD: Villa | |
| 143: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2009 July 24 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The City of Bloomington was awarded a $950,000 IEPA 319 Grant to implement several strategies to control nonpoint source pollution, including sediment and nutrients, along Kickapoo Creek in McLean County, IL. The project site is located at the junction of two headwater tributaries of Kickapoo Creek, approximately 6 miles east of downtown Bloomington, where a new 450 acre subdivision is being constructed. The watersheds of the two tributaries are markedly different; with the smaller northern tributary urbanizing while the larger, eastern tributary remains agricultural for the foreseeable future. The site provided a unique opportunity to study and implement several strategies for nonpoint source pollution control by restoring the channel and floodplain within an 88-acre City park. | | | | Date Created: | 08 19 2009 | | | | Agency ID: | Grant #3190713 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041180 Original UID: 21135 FIRST WORD: Kickapoo | |
| 144: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2005 December | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Water quality has been declining in Thorn Creek for the past several decades, largely due to the effects of land conversion. With conversion to cropland and urban cover, prairie has declined from an estimated 70 percent in pre-settlement times to less than 12 percent within the grassland areas. As a result, increased stormwater runoff has carried a significant pollutant burden into the stream. Aquatic communities have suffered as well, although conditions vary along the stream course. Studies at certain locations have shown poor fish diversity and a preponderance of pollution tolerant organisms. With its array of different habitat types, however, the Thorn Creek watershed still supports a large number of species for its size, made possible in large part by the conservation of natural areas in forest preserve lands along the stream. | | | | Date Created: | 02 03 2006 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041181 Original UID: 21136 FIRST WORD: Thorn | |
| 145: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2008 June | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Through a process of public discussions, problem areas were identified and prioritized, goals and objectives were established, implementation strategies and a cost analysis were put in place, all to guide future actions taken by this and/or other watershed management groups. The three problems of highest priority that were identified were: 1.) The water quality impairments which include excess nitrate and phosphorus concentrations in the river and lake; 2.) Wastewater contamination as indicated by fecal coliform in the river segment between Bismarck and Lake Vermilion; and 3.) Excess sediment loads in the river and Lake. The overall goal is to remove or decrease these inputs to achieve full intended use of the water resources. | | | | Date Created: | 03 25 2010 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041285 Original UID: 21137 FIRST WORD: Watershed | |
| 146: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2004 February 2 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The materials presented in this report consist of a review of existing information on the history of the lake, population and economic conditions, the basic physical setting of the lake, ecological characteristics of the lake and watershed, and existing watershed management programs. A baseline or current monitoring program was initiated for a one-year period to collect data on the existing water quality and physical characteristics of the watershed and lake. These baseline data were compared to the available historical record for these conditions to provide an evaluation of the apparent trends in these conditions. The baseline data were also used to evaluate the trophic state of the lake and limitations that these conditions may place on effective utilization of the lake. | | | | Date Created: | 01 30 2004 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041286 Original UID: 21138 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |
