Kevin Pape Project Manager January 14, 2009 ABSTRACT Under contract to ENTRAN, Gray & Pape, Inc. has prepared recommendations concerning the archaeological potential of Segment II/III of the Eastern Corridor Multimodal Projects (HAM-SR32-0.00, PID 22970; FHWA-OH-EIS-04-02), located in Hamilton and Clermont Counties, Ohio. The recommendations are based on a model developed by Gray & Pape, Inc. using the results of previous work conducted for the project (Weed 2002), documentary research, interviews with landowners and other knowledgeable parties, and an informal reconnaissance of the project area. Gray & Pape, Inc. divided the project area into three zones: Zone 1 is the undeveloped floodplains and terraces of the Little Miami River. Zone 2 includes floodplains and terraces that have been developed in historical times, and Zone 3 includes the valley and uplands east of the Village of Newtown. -

Antidegradation Classifications Assigned to State and National Scenic Rivers in Ohio Under Proposed Rules, March 25, 2002
State of Ohio Environmental Protection Agency Antidegradation Classifications Assigned to State and National Scenic Rivers in Ohio under Proposed Rules, March 25, 2002 March 25, 2002 prepared by Division of Surface Water Division of Surface Water, 122 South Front St., PO Box 1049, Columbus, Ohio 43215 (614) 644-2001 Introduction Federal Water Quality Standard (WQS) program regulations require that States adopt and use an antidegradation policy. The policy has two distinct purposes. First, an antidegradation policy must provide a systematic and reasoned decision making process to evaluate the need to lower water quality. Regulated activities should not lower water quality unless the need to do so is demonstrated based on technical, social and economic criteria. The second purpose of an antidegradation policy is to ensure that the State’s highest quality streams, rivers and lakes are preserved. This document deals with the latter aspect of the antidegradation policy. Section 6111.12(A)(2) of the Ohio Revised Code specifically requires that the Ohio EPA establish provisions “ensuring that waters of exceptional recreational and ecological value are maintained as high quality resources for future generations.” Table 1 explains the proposed classification system to accomplish this directive. The shaded categories denote the special higher resource quality categories. The proposed rule contains 157 stream segments classified as either State Resource Waters (SRW) or Superior High Quality Waters (SHQW). The approximate mileage in each classification is shown in Table 1. The total mileage in both classifications represents less than four percent of Ohio’s streams. Refer to “Methods and Documentation Used to Propose State Resource Water and Superior High Quality Water Classifications for Ohio’s Water Quality Standards” (Ohio EPA, 2002) for further information about the process used to develop the list of streams. -
The Unionidae of the Chagrin River: the Remnant of a Molluscan Fauna1
The Unionidae of the Chagrin River: The Remnant of a Molluscan Fauna1 MICHAEL A. HOGGARTH2, The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Natural Areas and Preserves, Fountain Square, Columbus, OH 43224 ABSTRACT. The study of the distribution of the Unionidae of Ohio reveals information on the biogeography of this family that may be useful in the study of other groups of animals. Thirty sites on the Chagrin River and its major tributaries, the East and Aurora branches, were sampled for freshwater mussels during this study. A total of 268 specimens representing nine species of the family Unionidae were found. Living and/or freshly dead specimens of eight species were identified. Additionally, a single subfossil fragment of Alasmidonta marginata was taken, indicating that this species once occurred in the river. Three reaches of the Chagrin River system were found to support Unionidae: the Aurora Branch contained five species, the main stem of the Chagrin River below the town of Chagrin Falls contained five species, and the Chagrin River above Chagrin Falls contained seven species. The river above the falls contained the most significant proportion of the fauna in the system, with over 80% of all specimens collected from this reach, and suggests that the falls has not always acted as a barrier to distribution. OHIO J. SCI. 90 (5): 168-170, 1990 INTRODUCTION the collections made. These shells have been deposited at The molluscan fauna of the Chagrin River was the The Ohio State University Museum of Zoology. Hoggarth subject of study nearly 30 years ago (Loos I960). That (1990b) provides a complete account of the Unionidae study reported a fauna consisting of six species of aquatic collected during this study. -

Approximately 10,600 acres of land will be required for the project, with 2,160 acres of water surface at seasonal pool elevation. The ecology of the area would be modified to adjust to the slack water impoundment. Environment downstream would be enhanced by flood control, water quality control, and water supply. Agricultural lands will be inundated. Urbanization of the area can be expected to increase rapidly. 3 * Adverse Environmental Effects Which Cannot be Avoided. -

Notes on the Growth and Ultrastructure of Biddulphia Laevis Ehr. (Bacillariophyceae) in the Maumee River, Ohio1

(BACILLARIOPHYCEAE) IN THE MAUMEE RIVER, OHIO1 J. P. KOCIOLEK,2 M. A. LAMB and R. L. LOWE, Department of Biological Sciences, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, OH 43403 ABSTRACT. Masses of the chain-forming diatom Biddulphia laevis Ehr. were ob- served in the Maumee River in the summer of 1981. Standing crop of this diatom was de- termined at different thalli portions of its green algal substrate, Cladophora glomerata (L.) Kutz. Ultrastructural observations of valve morphology with SEM indicate this spe- cies is typical of other biddulphioid diatoms, except in the structure of the ocellus-like process, which appears to be intermediate between a typical rimless pseudocellus and the thickened rim of an ocellus. Attachment of B. laevis to Cladophora and the zigzag filamen- tous nature of the chains was observed with SEM and noted to be similar to that of marine centric diatoms of the same type. OHIOJ.
