  • 1. Executive Summary
    1. Executive Summary “The significant problems we The Looking Glass River Watershed is one of three watersheds that were face cannot be solved at the same delineated as a result of the formation of the Greater Lansing Regional level of thinking we were at Committee on Phase II Nonpoint Source Pollution Prevention (GLRC) on when they were created.” May 21, 2004. The GLRC is comprised of 22 political agencies (i.e. - Albert Einstein communities, drain commissioner’s offices, and road commission) that each chose to fulfill the requirements of the Michigan Watershed-Based National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Storm Water Permit. The Looking Glass River Watershed contains 14 of the 22 political agencies. Working together as the Looking Glass River Watershed Committee, the permittees have developed this Watershed Management Plan (WMP) to fulfill the permit requirements. The Looking Glass River Watershed includes both rural and urban areas. The urban areas, which encompass approximately 11% of the watershed, Lower Grand include a portion of the Lansing metropolitan area (the Cities of Lansing, River Looking Glass River Watershed Management East Lansing, and Lansing Township), Meridian Township, and the City of Planning Area DeWitt. The City of DeWitt and Bath and DeWitt Townships are experiencing development but still have rural (agricultural and forest) areas that can be protected. Watertown, Woodhull, Victor, Olive and Riley Upper Grand Townships are all in the watershed and all have rural areas with significant River

    Revised 01.01.2021 William A. Lovis, PhD, RPA Professor and Curator Emeritus Anthropology/Environmental Archaeology Museum Anthropology Collections Research and Curation CURRICULUM VITAE 2021 _________________________________________ __ Current Positions and Affiliations: Professor Emeritus, Department of Anthropology, Michigan State University Curator Emeritus of Anthropology, Michigan State University Museum Senior Research Associate, Lithic Microwear Research Laboratory, Microwear Associates, Ltd. (2018 - present ) Research Interests: I am an environmental archaeologist. My research explores the relationship between human economic adaptation, mobility, and changing late glacial and Holocene environments in the Great Lakes region, northern England, and northern Europe, primarily among hunter-gatherers and transitional low-level horticulturalists. I bring a fundamentally interdisciplinary approach to this inquiry in concert with the biological and earth sciences. I am a strong proponent of actualistic replicatory experiments and ethnographic analogy to refine archaeological interpretation of early hunter-gatherers. Analytically, my multidisciplinary perspective includes collaborative experiments on carbonized food residue formation and interpretation of resultant isotope signatures to track the transition from hunting and gathering to horticulture in the Great Lakes, and with colleagues explores the taphonomy of Freshwater Reservoir Offsets (FROs) and their effect on carbonized residue ages. I harbor an abiding interest in applied theory and method, especially as it relates to research design. My career includes substantial experience in public policy, particularly surrounding repatriation nationally and internationally, heritage management on public lands, as well as forensic applications including human remains investigations and law enforcement training. I have spent my entire career in museum collections research, administration, management, teaching and curation and continue my engagement in this arena.

  • Bacterial Monitoring Results for Michigan Rivers and Streams: 2017
    MI/DEQ/WRD-18/023 MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY WATER RESOURCES DIVISION DECEMBER 2018 STAFF REPORT Bacterial Monitoring Results for Michigan Rivers and Streams: 2017 Introduction Staff from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), Water Resources Division (WRD), and its contractors collected samples from 67 sites on rivers and streams throughout the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, and 3 sites in the Upper Peninsula (Figure 1). Samples from these sites were analyzed for E. coli on a weekly basis, for 5-6 weeks, and results are shown in Appendix 1. Site locations are described in Table 1. Monitoring objectives are as follows: 1. Assess the current status and condition of individual waters of the state and determine whether the Total Body Contact (TBC) and Partial Body Contact (PBC) Designated Uses are being met. Michigan is committed to assessing the waters of the state to determine the attainment status of the designated uses. All data were considered in the upcoming 2020 Clean Water Act Sections 303(d) and 305(b) list. 2. Obtain screening level dissolved oxygen (D.O.) measurements in the Maple, Pine, and Chippewa Rivers watersheds. 3. Conduct microbial source tracking in impaired priority waters. Water Quality Standards (WQS) 2.1 E. coli Michigan’s designated use rule states that all water bodies shall be protected for TBC recreation from May 1 through October 31 and PBC recreation year-round (Rule 100 [R 323.1100] of the Part 4 Rules, WQS, promulgated pursuant to Part 31, Water Resources Protection, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended).

  • 2014 Annual Report
    MI/DEQ/WRD-15/001 MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY FISH CONTAMINANT MONITORING REPORT A SUMMARY OF EDIBLE PORTION SAMPLING EFFORT AND ANALYTICAL RESULTS WITH RECOMMENDATIONS FOR UPDATES TO THE MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH EAT SAFE FISH GUIDE DECEMBER 2014 SECTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality-Water Resources Division (MDEQ-WRD) has measured bioaccumulative contaminants in over 17,000 fish tissue samples collected since 1980. Fish contaminant analyses are limited to chemicals with high bioaccumulation potential in fish tissue. The presence of even extremely low concentrations of some bioaccumulative pollutants in surface water can result in fish tissue concentrations that pose a human or wildlife health risk. The MDEQ-WRD conducts fish contaminant monitoring to address four goals: 1. The first goal is to support the development of the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH) Michigan Eat Safe Fish Guide. Edible portion sample results are used by the MDCH to issue general and specific consumption advisories for sport-caught fish from Michigan’s surface waters. 2. The second goal is to support the regulation of commercial fisheries in the waters of the state. The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) uses edible portion monitoring results to regulate sales of the commercial catch. 3. The third goal of the fish contaminant monitoring is to identify spatial differences and temporal trends in the quality of Michigan’s surface waters. Temporal trends and spatial differences are examined by collecting whole fish and caged fish samples in addition to the edible portion samples. 4. Finally, the fourth goal is to evaluate whether existing pollution prevention, regulatory, and remedial programs are effectively reducing chemical contamination in the aquatic environment.
