  • Redeye River Watershed Monitoring and Assessment Report
    Summary Monitoring and Assessment Redeye River Watershed Why is it The Redeye River watershed covers nearly 900 square miles in the northern part of the Upper Mississippi River Basin in central Minnesota. The watershed includes all important? or parts of Becker, Otter Tail, Todd, and Wadena counties. The Redeye River begins at Wolf Lake and joins the Leaf River, before draining into the Crow Wing River near Staples. The Redeye River provides drinking water for households and industries, habaitat for aquatic life, riparian corridors for wildlife, and recreation opportunities like fishing, swimming, and canoeing. Nearly half the watershed’s land use is agricultural, 30% is forested, 15% is wetlands, and about 4% is developed communities and industries. Key issues Based on intensive watershed monitoring, which began in 2011, results indicate that a handful of streams do not meet water quality standards for beneficial uses such as: • Aquatic life • Drinking water • Fish consumption The main concerns are excess sediment and high bacteria levels. Highlights of report • In 2011, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency began an intensive watershed monitoring effort at about 40 sites throughout the Redeye River watershed. As part of this effort, MPCA staff joined with the Wadena County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Otter Tail County Coalition of Lake Associations. • In 2013, a holistic approach was taken to assess all of the watershed’s surface waters for support, or non support of aquatic life, recreation, and fish consumption. • Of the waters that do not fully support aquatic life or aquatic recreation, the main source of impairments are due to high bacteria levels and increased sediment.

  • This Document Is Made Available Electronically by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library As Part of an Ongoing Digital Archiving Project
    This document is made available electronically by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library as part of an ongoing digital archiving project. http://www.leg.state.mn.us/lrl/lrl.asp -f {.; ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Association of Minnesota Division of Lands and Forestry Employees voted at the 1969 Annual Meeting to publish "A History of Forestry in Minne­ sota." Area Forester Joe Mockford, at that same meeting, offered $600 to help defray expenses. Since then, many people have helped make it a reality, and it is not possible for all to receive the credit they deserve. Dorothy Ewert brought the history up to date, the Grand Rapids Herald Re­ view and Chuck Wechsler of the Conservation Depart­ ment's Bureau of Information and Education helped a bunch of amateurs prepare it for printing. Ray Hitchcock, President of the Association, and Joe Gummerson ran the business end. Our thanks to all of these. "A History of Forestry in Minnesota" was com­ piled by Elizabeth Bachmann over a period of ten years. Miss Bachmann collected the data used in this publication and compiled it as a sort of legacy to the forestry fieldmen. • • I I With Parti lar Reference to restry Legislation Printed in 1965 Reprinted with Additions in 1969 i CLOQUET-MOOSE LAKE FOREST FIRE . 15 Burning Permit Law Enacted ... 19 Fire Cooperation, Weeks Law .. 19 Lands Reserved Along Lakeshores .. 19 Wm.

The DNR and county residents revised the plan after public meetings on the proposal in April. The DNR feels that the Crow Wing River qualifies for "Wild" and "Scenic" classifications under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act of 197 3. The act was passed by the legislature to "preserve and protect" rivers with "outstanding scenic-, recreational, natural, historical, scientific and similar values." This report is divided into three major sections: Analysis, Management Plan and Appendix.
