This study has developed flood-risk data for various areas of the community that will be used to establish actuarial flood insurance rates and to assist the community in its efforts to promote sound floodplain management. Minimum floodplain management requirements for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) are set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 44 CFR, 60.3. This information will be used by the communities to update existing floodplain regulations as part of the regular phase of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The information will also be used by local and regional planners to further promote sound land use and floodplain development. As part of this revision, the format of the map panels has changed. Previously, flood-hazard information was shown on both the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)

Box 248 Sullivan, MO 63080 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Project Overview The overall purpose of the Meramec River Watershed Demonstration Project is to bring together relevant information about the Meramec River basin and evaluate the status of the stream, watershed, and wetland resource base. The project has three primary objectives, which have been met. The objectives are: 1) Prepare an inventory of the Meramec River basin to provide background information about past and present conditions. 2) Facilitate the reduction of riparian wetland losses through identification of priority areas for protection and management. 3) Identify potential partners and programs to assist citizens in selecting approaches to the management of the Meramec River system. These objectives are dealt with in the following sections titled Inventory, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Analyses, and Action Plan. Inventory The Meramec River basin is located in east central Missouri in Crawford, Dent, Franklin, Iron, Jefferson, Phelps, Reynolds, St. Louis, Texas, and Washington counties. Found in the northeast corner of the Ozark Highlands, the Meramec River and its tributaries drain 2,149 square miles.

  • 2016 Monitoring Network Plan, Revision 0
    APPENDIX 6 Comments and Responses on Proposed 2016 Monitoring Network Plan, Revision 0 COMMENTS AND RESPONSES ON PROPOSED 2016 MONITORING NETWORK PLAN, REVISION 0 The public comment period for the proposed 2016 Missouri Monitoring Network Plan opened on May 27, 2016 and closed on June 28, 2016. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources’ Air Pollution Control Program prepared the 2016 Monitoring Network Plan to address the requirements of 40 CFR 58.10 (a) (1) for annual submittal of a plan to provide information on current State or Local Air Monitoring Stations (SLAMS), other ambient air monitoring, and any proposed network changes for the upcoming year. The following is a summary of comments received and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources’ Air Pollution Control Program’s (Air Program’s) corresponding responses. SUMMARY OF COMMENTS: During the public comment period for the proposed 2016 Monitoring Network Plan, the Air Program received comments from Steven C. Whitworth (Ameren Missouri) and Maxine I. Lipeles (Washington University School of Law on behalf of the Sierra Club). The comments focus primarily on ambient air monitoring networks for the Ameren Missouri Labadie and Rush Island coal fired power plants and were generally related to the implementation approach of the 1-hour Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The Air Program is responding to comments that relate specifically to ambient air monitoring issues as appropriate and applicable to the requirements of 40 CFR 58.10 (a) (1). Our responses follow the original comments identified in italics. COMMENT #1: Both commenters addressed the issue of ambient air monitor classifications relative to 40 CFR 58 and EPA’s SO2 Data Requirements Rule (DRR) 40 CFR 51 Subpart BB.

  • The Pre-Impoundment Fish Fauna of Big River (Meramec Drainage, Missouri)
    1978] Mills, Hocutt, & Stauffer, Biological Sciences 25 THE PRE-IMPOUNDMENT FISH FAUNA OF BIG RIVER (MERAMEC DRAINAGE, MISSOURI) Paul A. Mills, Jr. Museum of Nat. His., Univ. Kansas, Lawrence, Ks. 66045, and Charles H. Hocutt and Jay R. Stauffer, Jr. Appalachian Environ. Lab., Univ. Maryland, Frostburg, Md. 21532 ABSTRACT: Eighty two species of fishes were collected from 37 localities on Big River (principal tributary of the Meramec River, East-central Missouri) from 1974-1976. Of these, 14 were newly reported from the system, and 5 others had not been collected since before 1945.The fauna is essentially "Ozarkian" and is divided into those species which are primarily headwaters and tributary inhabitants, those generally restricted to the lower river, and those widely distributed. In conjunction with literature records, we document the presence of 90 species of fishes in Big River and discuss some possible effects of the two proposed impoundments on the composition and distribution of the fauna. Introduction. The Meramec River system of east-central Missouri lies within that portion of the state known as the Ozark uplands. It is composed of two principal tributaries in addition to the mainstream and drains all or parts of 11 counties. Big River, the larger of these two tributaries, originates in northern Iron County south of Belgrade and enters the Meramec from the south near Eureka. The headwaters of Big River drain a portion of the St. Francis Mountain region, an area composed largely of igneous rocks of Cambrian and Pre-Cambrian age. The majority of its watershed, however, lies within the Salem Plateau province where sedimentary limestones and dolomites of Ordovician age and younger predominate (Thornbury 1965: 265-268).
