  • Phillips County History
    Phillips County Courthouse c1914 600 Cherry Street, Helena, Arkansas Phillips County History Phillips County is part of the Delta region of Arkansas located where the St. Francis River empties into the Mississippi River and has significant touches on nearly every aspect of the state’s history. Phillips County’s soil consists of alluvial deposits from the Mississippi River, making it prime agricultural land. The southern edge of Crowley’s Ridge provides higher land once used by Native Americans. Helena’s location on the Mississippi River gave it the potential to be an important transportation hub, although it eventually was overtaken in importance by Memphis, Tennessee. Established on the banks of the Mississippi River in 1820, Phillips County is the second oldest county in Arkansas. The land had a rich history that was scattered with images of ancient Indian cultures, famous explorers like Desoto, who explored Arkansas entering just south of Helena in 1541, Lewis and Clark, and Frenchmen like Marquette and Jolliet, LaSalle and DeTonti, who colonized what became the Louisiana Territory. President Thomas Jefferson commissioned Prospect Robbins and Joseph Brown to survey the southern part of the Louisiana Purchase. Robbins and Brown placed a marker in the northwest corner of Phillips County on November 10, 1815. This marker is the beginning point from which all Louisiana Purchase lands were surveyed. This vast land purchase from Napoleon in 1803 provided a new real estate opportunity for entrepreneurs like Sylvannus Phillips. Phillips purchased huge tracts of land that bordered the Mississippi River along the Arkansas Territory in 1797. On May 1, 1820 the territorial county of Phillips, which was named after Sylvannus Phillips, was created and encompassed most of eastern Arkansas.

  • Rapid Damage Assessment of Infrastructure Components in the Central United States
    Rapid Damage Assessment of Infrastructure Components in the Central United States Report No. 09-02 Fikri Acar Post-Graduate Research Associate Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign August 2009 ABSTRACT A number of destructive earthquakes have occurred in the central United States on the New Madrid Fault at the beginning of the 19th century. In the eight central U.S. states included in this investigation, rivers intersect major land routes of importance to commodity flow. The Mississippi River, for example, divides the US into two parts, namely the Eastern and Pacific parts. There are many different long-span bridges crossing these rivers. Moreover, most of the major dams were built on these rivers, and at least thousands of storage tanks are located in cities and towns in the central U.S. If earthquakes occurred in the New Madrid seismic area as large as the historic 19th Century series, some of these major structures would likely suffer at least slight-to-moderate damage. Bridge damage would interrupt the transportation network, and floods caused by dams failures would result in further destruction to regions already devastated by earthquake shaking. As part of the ongoing impact assessment project funded by FEMA, this study deals with the rapid damage assessment of these major river crossings (MRCs) and dams, as well as levees and storage tanks that frequently hold hazardous materials. As a result of a broad classification, six types of MRCs, two types of dams and several types of steel storage tanks have been identified. The majority of the bridges fall into the ‘multispan simply supported and continuous steel truss bridges’, while most dams are classified as ‘earth and concrete gravity dams’.
