  • Beneficial Use Support Document Conotton Creek Basin 2016
    Beneficial Use Support Document Conotton Creek Basin 2016 Conotton Creek at New Cumberland Road, RM 11.4 Division of Surface Water Ecological Assessment Section May 2021 Ohio EPA:DSW/EAS Conotton Creek Basin Use Support 2016 May 25, 2021 Introduction Ohio EPA conducted a comprehensive biological, habitat and water quality survey of the Conotton Creek watershed in 2016. While some limited sampling has previously been conducted on the Conotton Creek mainstem, most of the existing data date back to the 1980s. Few tributaries within the basin have ever been sampled by Ohio EPA prior to 2016. Most (22) of the 25 streams designated within the Ohio water quality standards are, therefore, not verified based on survey data. In addition, other tributaries within the basin remain undesignated. Figure 1 depicts the 2016 Conotton Creek basin study area and locations where sampling occurred, which included eleven locations arranged along the 43-mile long mainstem. Additional sampling occurred in twenty-five tributaries throughout the Conotton Creek watershed, which drains an area of 286 mi2 in Figure 1. The 2016 Conotton Creek Basin Study Area. Carroll, Harrison and Tuscarawas counties and which lies entirely within the Western Allegheny Plateau ecoregion in eastern Ohio. Conotton Creek is a major tributary of the Tuscarawas into which it discharges at river mile 65.5. Conotton Creek has been previously surveyed by Ohio EPA and it carries a verified warmwater habitat aquatic life use designation in the Ohio WQS that was validated by the 2016 survey once again. Most of the designated waterbodies in the Conotton Creek drainage basin are based on the original 1978 and 1985 state water quality standards.

  • Harrison County's Tappan- Moravian Trail Scenic Byway
    Harrison County’s Tappan- Moravian Trail Scenic Byway Harrison County’s Tappan-Moravian Trail Scenic Byway This is a visual tour of beautiful country and historic pictures which depict this important Ohio Byway, one of Ohio’s 25 byways. Red indicates byway’s presence throughout the county’s roads and villages. Tappan-Moravian Trail’s path in the East, North and South sections of Harrison County. The trail was one of the major stagecoach routes in the area until the development of the railroad which bypassed Deersville and the ridge route of the trail. The Trail was also known in history as the Williamson’s Trail since Col. David Williamson led the men who participated in the 1782 Gnadenhutten Massacre as Crawford’s defeated army fled eastward from pursuing Indians. The Union Hotel in Deersville was an important stagecoach stop. It has been renovated, by Tom & Sharkey Bell of Deersville, as the Union Bell Hotel, and is available for guest lodging and group meetings. The Buckeye Trail intersects the scenic byway east of Deersville and travels through Deersville toward Clendening Lake. The Buckeye Trail Barn is accessed from the byway at the Beall Road intersection A few years ago the byway was extended from State Route 250 and intersecting at State Route 646 as it progresses north towards Scio, a famous pottery town known worldwide for Scio Pottery, 1933-1986. From there the trail goes onto State Route 646 to New Rumley, birthplace of General George Armstrong Custer. There is an Ohio Historical Site displaying Custer’s statue, a kiosk of Custer’s life, and the Custer Museum, located in the church beside the birthplace.
