  • List of Services Provided by the Wastewater Department
    NOWWTP and the ROCKY RIVER The entire watershed basin is designated as a warm water habitat by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) More than 90 percent of the watershed is covered by Hydrologic Soil Types that are classified as ‘C’ and ‘D’ soils. These soils have the slowest infiltration rates and the highest runoff potential. As much as 95 percent of the area in the watershed is underlain with soils that have severe limitations for septic systems, due to low infiltration rates. City of North Olmsted Wastewater Treatment Plant was built in 1959, due in part to the urban density and in response to the number of failing septic systems in the area. National Importance: The river itself is formed by the confluence of the East and West Branches in North Olmsted at the bottom of Cedar Point Hill, just west of Cleveland- Hopkins International Airport. The headwaters of the larger West Branch are predominantly located in Medina County. The East Branch starts at Hinckley Lake. The Rocky River was ranked by Field & Stream as one of the top steelhead Trout Rivers in the world, and has also been featured on ESPN. Local Importance: One of the first purchases by the Cleveland Metro Parts was land along the banks of the Rocky River. The river runs through or along the boards of Berea, Brookpark, Cleveland, Fairview Park, Lakewood, North Olmsted, Olmsted Township, and Rocky River but provides recreational activities to all of north eastern Ohio. The Rocky River basin is strongly influenced by the geology of the area, including massive shale cliffs, large meadows, extensive forested areas, overlapping flood plains and a large amount of wetlands per acre, with a total of 3,462 acres of wetlands.

The Plan was funded from a Community Development Block Grant from Cuyahoga County. Illustration: Parcels formerly home to the Ford Casting and Engine plants could be redeveloped into a regional destination site accommodating a variety of mixed uses. Its prime location to the Cleveland Hopkins Airport and I-71 make it well-suited to accommodate future growth for the community. Brook Park Master Plan 3 Section I: Executive Summary Brook Park has experienced various levels of progression from a small settlement, to a burgeoning post- World War II community, to the "built-out" community that it is today. There is no doubt that the City's proximity to Cleveland, Cleveland Hopkins Airport, Ford Motor Company, and key thoroughfare routes resulted in defining Brook Park’s built and social landscape. Today, Brook Park’s has 12,000 residents fewer than its 1970 peak population of 30,774, and much of its built environment is aging. But the pride and perseverance of residents is not.

  • Escalambre, Michelle, M.A. August 2020 Geography
    ESCALAMBRE, MICHELLE, M.A. AUGUST 2020 GEOGRAPHY TRAIL IMPACTS ON MOVEMENT IN WILDLIFE CORRIDORS: A CLEVELAND METROPARKS CASE STUDY (117 pp.) Thesis Advisor: David H. Kaplan Wildlife corridors promote biodiversity, abate landscape fragmentation and – in areas of urban development – are often refuges for fauna. Yet, they appear at odds with their main goal of conserving wildlife’s natural habitat, especially when applied to a real-world context, because they are typically located in areas prone to anthropogenic disturbances. The literature varies over how concurrent use affects wildlife. One such space where this occurs is urban parks where wildlife movement overlaps spatially with recreationists. Park visitors utilize formal trails and depart from them to create informal trails. Many negative consequences toward wild biota have been attributed to informal trails, which contribute to anthropogenic-induced fragmentation and, indirectly, disturbances within the matrix. The overlap of trails with wildlife corridors begs the questions: are wildlife using the shared corridors within the reservations or should landscape, resource and trail managers be directing their efforts elsewhere to facilitate wildlife movement? Also, to what degree, if any, will wildlife move through corridors shared with humans? To answer these questions, baseline and biodiversity data needed to be established first. Employing round-the-clock, passive, remotely triggered camera pairs in two urban parks in greater Cleveland, Ohio, U.S.A., scenarios were tested along a continuum of wildlife- anthropogenic interfacing that occurs on trails. Formal and informal trails in Cleveland Metroparks were studied, in addition to an area with restored informal trails. Examining the majority of terrestrial, animal wildlife, likelihood of Verified Use was established for each species, guild, and as a whole.

Pardot Kynes, Planetary Ecologist, Arrakis ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY While nearly self-apparent from the perspective of ecology (i.e. healthy, functioning ecosystems provide the services for a healthy, functioning human society), this paradigm is not intuitively apparent in human-dominated landscapes where issues related to the day-to-day repair and maintenance of the engineered infrastructure (e.g. water, wastewater, transportation, energy, habitation) that supports our present society) appear largely divorced from natural ecosystem processes. Natural ecosystems in good (sustainable) condition provide free (or relatively low-cost) infrastructure to support human activities in the ecosystem.

  • Beneficial Use Support Document Rocky River
    Beneficial Use Support Document Rocky River Division of Surface Water Ecological Assessment Section November, 2015 1 Recommendations Aquatic Life Use Status The Rocky River basin has been subjected to regular monitoring and assessment since the mid-1980s and the 2014 survey marks the third comprehensive study of the watershed by Ohio EPA. As such, the aquatic life use designations for the overwhelming majority of the larger streams within the Rocky River basin have been verified through and in light of biocriteria. However, there remains selected waterbodies where designations for aquatic life use(s) are still based on the original 1978 and 1985 state water quality standards. The techniques in use at that time did not include standardized approaches to the collection of in-stream biological data or numeric biocriteria. While some of the recommendations may appear to constitute “downgrades” (i.e., EWH to WWH) or “upgrades” (i.e., WWH to EWH) any change should not be construed as such because these, in most instances, constitute the first application of an objective and robust data driven process to ascertain the appropriate aquatic life use designation. Ohio EPA is obligated by a 1981 public notice to review and evaluate all aquatic life use designations outside of the WWH use prior to basing any permitting actions on the existing, unverified use designations. Thus, some of the following aquatic life use recommendations constitute a fulfillment of that obligation. Existing and recommended aquatic life use(s) resulting from the 2014 intensive survey are summarized in Table 1. Affirmation of existing uses, re-designation of existing, yet unverified uses, or designation of previously unlisted waters and other pertinent information, where needed, are presented below.

  • Headwaters East Branch Rocky River
    Headwaters East Branch HUC 041100010201 Nonpoint Source Implementation Strategy Created by: Cuyahoga Soil & Water Conservation District 6100 West Canal Rd. Valley View, OH 44125 cuyahogaswcd.org Rocky River Watershed Council MyRockyRiver.org Version 1.0, April 2017 Acknowledgements Cuyahoga SWCD and Rocky River Watershed Council would like to thank the many partners who contributed data, project ideas and other guidance for the development of this plan, especially Cleveland Metroparks, Medina County Park District and Medina SWCD. Chapter 1: Introduction The Headwaters East Branch HUC-12 (041100010201) is located in Cuyahoga, Medina and Summit Counties in Northeast Ohio. (see map at right). It is one of eleven HUC-12 watershed in the Rocky River Watershed, which drains to Lake Erie’s Central Basin. It is generally considered to be the healthiest area in the Rocky River watershed, due in large part to its mostly forested nature and large Metroparks holdings, including Hinckley Reservation. 1.1 Report Background This NPS-IS was created as an update to the Rocky River Watershed Action Plan (RRWAP), which was developed by NOACA and endorsed by Ohio EPA and ODNR in 2006. The development of the original RRWAP spurred the formation of the Rocky River Watershed Council and the creation of the Rocky River Watershed Coordinator position at Cuyahoga SWCD. This report reflects this growth in local, on the ground knowledge and expertise in the Rocky River Watershed in its increased level of specificity. This Headwaters East Branch NPS-IS intends to meet the USEPA 9-Element Watershed Plan criteria. 1.2 Watershed Profile & History The Headwaters East Branch Rocky River watershed (HUC 041100010201) is the most upstream downstream Hydrologic Unit within the East Branch Rocky River – Rocky River HUC-10 watershed (0411000102.
