It builds softly, off in the distance, somewhere just over the horizon and after a few minutes you begin the feel the dull vibration that always accompanies it. At first, your mind tries to make it into something more familiar, like a Color postcard of the current bridge. motor boat out on the lake or a distant neighbor mowing his lawn. Then your mind clicks and you remember, it’s a train lumbering across the railroad bridge at Merrimac. The rhythmic clickity click becomes louder, steadier, until fading away, only to return the next day. The train crosses the bridge from the Okee side then rumbles through Merrimac taking a hard left through the Wisconsin Valley, running along Route 78. Then it takes a hard right and heads north toward Devil’s Lake and on to Baraboo. Traffic backs up at the crossing on Hwy 113 and drivers silently (and sometimes not so silently) bemoan their fate at being held up by the slow moving train. The train takes its time. Perhaps it’s the age of the tracks or number of cars it’s pulling. Or maybe the train is just not in that much of a hurry. The story of the railroad bridge at Merrimac is actually the story of two bridges.

  • Comprehensive Fishery Surveys of Swan Lake and Spring Lake Columbia County, Wisconsin 2018
    Comprehensive Fishery Surveys of Swan Lake and Spring Lake Columbia County, Wisconsin 2018 Waterbody Identification Codes: 179800 (Swan Lake), 180000 (Spring Lake) Nathan Nye Senior Fisheries Biologist Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Poynette, Wisconsin June 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Comprehensive fishery surveys were conducted on Swan Lake and Spring Lake during the spring of 2018. Swan Lake results are described here, with results of the Spring Lake survey included in Appendix A beginning on page 75. Swan Lake sampling included early fyke netting for Northern Pike and Walleyes (SN1), early electrofishing to recapture marked Walleyes (SE1), a second netting period targeting Muskellunge (SN2), late spring electrofishing for bass and panfish (SE2) and fall electrofishing to assess Walleye recruitment (FE). In general, gamefish species were present at abundances consistent with other lakes in the Complex Riverine lake class. Gamefish species exhibited good to excellent growth and body condition. Bluegill, Black Crappie, and Yellow Perch were common and exhibited good growth. Bluegills as large as 9.2 inches were collected. Bluegills averaged over 8 inches by age 6, placing Bluegill growth ahead of area and state averages. High Bluegill total annual mortality compared to other area lakes may be indicative of high harvest pressure. Black Crappies up to 13.0 inches were collected in the survey and Black Crappie growth rates exceeded area and state averages after age 1, likely due to the abundant forage found in Swan Lake. Black Crappies averaged over 10 inches by age 4, and over 11 inches by age 6. Yellow Perch up to 12.0 inches were collected in the survey.

    EPA's Review of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Request for Approval of Site-Specific Total Phosphorus Criteria For Petenwell Lake, Castle Rock Lake, and Lake Wisconsin Under Section 303(c) of the Clean Water Act WQSTS # WI 2019-2058 Date: July 9, 2020 I. Summary A. Date received by EPA: June 10, 2020 (electronically; Attorney General certification letter received July 6, 2020) B. Description of action The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) requested U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approval of site-specific criteria (SSC) for three reservoirs on the Wisconsin River: Petenwell Lake (located in Adams, Juneau, and Wood counties), Castle Rock Lake (located in Adams and Juneau counties), and Lake Wisconsin (located in Columbia and Sauk counties). Data indicate that the uses are protected at levels different from Wisconsin’s existing total phosphorus (TP) criteria. Per federal regulations at Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR) § 131.5(a), EPA “is to review and to approve or disapprove State-adopted water quality standards,” and therefore, WDNR submitted its adopted SSC to EPA. WDNR submitted the following documents in support of the site-specific criteria: ▪ Transmittal letter from WDNR to EPA, dated June 10, 2020; ▪ Legal certification letter from Joshua A. Kaul, Wisconsin Attorney General, to EPA, dated July 2, 2020; ▪ Final Order of the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board related to WY-09-18 affecting NR 102.06; ▪ WDNR Natural Resources Board Agenda document for WY-09-18 containing responses
