  • Tennessee Reference Stream Morphology and Large Woody Debris Assessment
    Tennessee Reference Stream Morphology and Large Woody Debris Assessment Report and Guidebook Prepared for: Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Prepared by: Jennings Environmental, LLC December 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report includes reference stream morphology and large woody debris data collected throughout Tennessee in 2015-2017. Hydraulic geometry data are presented as regional curves for Ecoregions 66, 67, 68/69, 71, and 65/74 to support stream assessment and restoration planning. Morphology relationships describe bankfull channel dimensions, pattern, and profile measurements in relation to channel-forming discharge and watershed drainage area. Large woody debris (LWD) data collected at reference streams serve as an indicator of natural stream conditions in forested floodplains. These databases and relationships are valuable for assessing disturbed streams to evaluate degree of departure from equilibrium, selecting and planning restoration projects to improve natural stream functions, and monitoring changes in stream conditions in undisturbed and restored stream systems. These databases should be supplemented with additional information collected during site assessment and restoration planning to improve understanding of local stream conditions throughout Tennessee. The morphology data collection included 114 undisturbed streams ranging in width from 3 to 132 feet with watershed drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 117 square miles. Wherever available, United States Geological Survey (USGS) gage station sites were surveyed to provide long-term hydrologic information close to the reference stream. Bankfull stage indicators at a USGS gage provided the opportunity to quantify the channel-forming discharge and exceedance probability of this flow event. For reference streams with no gages, natural equilibrium stream segments with clearly identifiable incipient-floodplain bankfull stage indicators were surveyed to determine morphology parameters.

    To the Scouts and Scouters of the Chickasaw Council: The Order of the Arrow is a program based on service and camping and it is our duty to promote camping within the council. This book is constructed to inform the units of camping locations in an effort to increase camping experience of units in the Chickasaw Council. This book is an effective reference when being used to plan your unit’s outings. Inside you will find a list of State Parks located around the Mid-South and a number of other locations for a long weekend or summer trip. There is a chart of the available facilities for each State Park along with directions on how to get there. There is also a list of websites that can come in handy when planning your outdoor adventure. Camping is one of the greatest experiences in Scouting, yet not many scouts get the chance. Please use this book to help Scouts experience the joy of an outdoor adventure.
