  • Status Survey of the Western Fanshell and the Neosho Mucket in Oklahoma
    1990 c.3 OKLAHOMA <) PROJECT TITLE: STATUS SURVEY OF THE WESTERN FANSHELL AND THE NEOSHO MUCKET IN OKLAHOMA To determine the distribution and abundance of the freshwater mussels Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad) and Lampsilis rafinesqueana Frierson in Oklahoma. A survey to determine the status of the freshwater mussels, Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad) and Lampsilis rafinesqueana Frierson, in Oklahoma was completed during August and September, 1989. These species are also known by the common names of Western Fanshell and Neosho Mucket, respectively. The western fanshell is probably extinct in the state. It is known that the species formerly occurred in the Verdigris River in Oklahoma and as a result of this study, was determined that it had also existed in the Caney River. However, no evidence of living or fresh specimens was found in any river system in northeastern Oklahoma. The Neosho mucket has also disappeared from most of its former range within the state and presently only occurs in a segment of the Illinois River system extending from the Lake Frances dam near the Arkansas border to Lake Tenkiller. Protection for this species is recommended. This report describes efforts to determine the status of two species of freshwater mussels (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Unionidae) in Oklahoma. Both species are generally considered to be rare and have rather limited geographical distributions. Both species may meet the criteria of endangered species and thus it was considered important to gain some information as to their current status. Both species have been recorded in Oklahoma but their current abundance and distribution in the state were unknown. The western fanshell, Cyprogenia aberti (Conrad) was described in 1850 from specimens collected on the rapids of the Verdigris River, Chambers' Ford, Oklahoma (Johnson, 1980).

  • Mining-Related Contamination of the Spring River Flood Plain in Cherokee County, Kansas
    Mining-Related Contamination of the Spring River Flood Plain in Cherokee County, Kansas A proposal written for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region VII By Kyle Juracek and Andy Ziegler U.S. Geological Survey. February 14,2008 Revised January 5, 2009 and March 23, 2009 Introduction Historical mining activity in the Tri-State Mining District of southeast Kansas, southwest Missouri, and northeast Oklahoma (figure 1), has resulted in a substantial ongoing input of cadmium, lead, and zinc to the environment. Recent studies by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, documented cadmium, lead, and zinc concentrations in sediment that far exceeded background levels as well as probable- effects guidelines for adverse biological effects (Pope, 2005; Juracek, 2006). These studies sampled deposited sediment in the Spring River and its tributaries. Tar Creek, and Empire Lake in Cherokee County, Kansas. Adverse effects of the mining-related contamination on freshwater mussels was documented by Angelo et al. (2007). However, the contamination is not corifined to stream channels and lake beds. During high flows, contaminated sediment is carried out of the channels and deposited on the adjoining flood plains. Limited evidence of flood-plain contamination was provided by two near-charmel samples of surficial flood-plain soil that.were collected near the Spring River and Shoal Creek upstream from Empire Lake (Juracek, 2006, sites SRF-1 and SCF- 1). For the Spring River flood-plain sample, cadmium and lead concentrations exceeded the threshold-effects guideline for adverse biological effects and the zinc concentration exceeded the probable-effects guideline.

  • Chapter 2 – Joplin's Historic Character
    CHAPTER 2 – JOPLIN’S HISTORIC CHARACTER Joplin is significant as the commercial center of the Tri-State Mining District encompassing portions of southwest Missouri, southeastern Kansas, and northeast Oklahoma. From its founding in the 1870s through the mid-twentieth century, Joplin served as the marketing, commercial, and transportation hub of the mining district, providing a focus for a large area well beyond its borders. After World War II lead and zinc mining within the region declined, yet Joplin has continued to grow and evolve. Today, Joplin retains much of its historic character, particularly in its downtown core and surrounding residential neighborhoods. It is this historic character, its contributing features, and the quality of life that they provide that are the subject of the Historic Preservation Plan. 2.1 REGIONAL CONTEXT Joplin is located within the watershed of the Spring River, a tributary of the Neosho River and the Arkansas River. Geographically, it is positioned at the northwest edge of the Springfield Plateau, a portion of the Ozark Highlands ecoregion. The Spring River originates near Aurora, Missouri and flows north and west toward the Missouri/Kansas border. About seventy-five percent of the river’s watershed, 2,777 square miles, is within southwest Missouri. Once in Kansas, the river turns south, joining the Neosho River near Wyandotte in northeastern Oklahoma.

  • Historic U.S. 66 Bridge Database 1926-1985
    HISTORIC U.S. 66 BRIDGE DATABASE 1926-1985 © 2015 Jim Ross FOR NON-PROFIT USE ONLY COMPILED BY JIM ROSS IN PREPARATION FOR THE BOOK: ROUTE 66 CROSSINGS: Historic Bridges of the Mother Road, published in 2016 by THE UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA PRESS. It is recommended that the book be used as a companion to this database. INTRODUCTION Information in this database makes no claim to the final word on the bridges of Route 66, simply because it remains a work in progress. In addition to unresolved questions about early Route 66 alignments in some areas as well as dates that certain pathways were signed as US 66, the quest to ferret out build dates and bridge types for many of the lost structures continues. Along that thread, no attempt was made to verify which bridges original to the interstates carried Route 66 signage as the route was gradually dismantled, though the ones likely to have done so are addressed in the database. Some culverts that were too small to qualify as bridges but with historical significance were documented also, along with a few notable examples of structures integral to the roadway, such as railroad grade separations and tunnels. To the extent records were available, state departments of transportation were the primary source used to verify bridge types and build dates. It was also necessary to use unofficial web-based resources and documents found in the literature, not all of which could be considered reliable. In some instances, build dates were estimated (circa) based on favored designs for a given era and other supporting evidence.
