  • List of Services Provided by the Wastewater Department
    NOWWTP and the ROCKY RIVER The entire watershed basin is designated as a warm water habitat by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) More than 90 percent of the watershed is covered by Hydrologic Soil Types that are classified as ‘C’ and ‘D’ soils. These soils have the slowest infiltration rates and the highest runoff potential. As much as 95 percent of the area in the watershed is underlain with soils that have severe limitations for septic systems, due to low infiltration rates. City of North Olmsted Wastewater Treatment Plant was built in 1959, due in part to the urban density and in response to the number of failing septic systems in the area. National Importance: The river itself is formed by the confluence of the East and West Branches in North Olmsted at the bottom of Cedar Point Hill, just west of Cleveland- Hopkins International Airport. The headwaters of the larger West Branch are predominantly located in Medina County. The East Branch starts at Hinckley Lake. The Rocky River was ranked by Field & Stream as one of the top steelhead Trout Rivers in the world, and has also been featured on ESPN. Local Importance: One of the first purchases by the Cleveland Metro Parts was land along the banks of the Rocky River. The river runs through or along the boards of Berea, Brookpark, Cleveland, Fairview Park, Lakewood, North Olmsted, Olmsted Township, and Rocky River but provides recreational activities to all of north eastern Ohio. The Rocky River basin is strongly influenced by the geology of the area, including massive shale cliffs, large meadows, extensive forested areas, overlapping flood plains and a large amount of wetlands per acre, with a total of 3,462 acres of wetlands.

  • Clean &Unclean Meats
    Clean & Unclean Meats God expects all who desire to have a relationship with Him to live holy lives (Exodus 19:6; 1 Peter 1:15). The Bible says following God’s instructions regarding the meat we eat is one aspect of living a holy life (Leviticus 11:44-47). Modern research indicates that there are health benets to eating only the meat of animals approved by God and avoiding those He labels as unclean. Here is a summation of the clean (acceptable to eat) and unclean (not acceptable to eat) animals found in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14.

  • Provision of Information on Place of Product Origin to Consumers
    Fishery Provision of Information on Place of Product Origin to Products Consumers ○Since October 2011, it has been recommended to display places of origin of fresh fishery products, mainly those caught on the Pacific side of eastern Japan, by dividing the sea areas into 7 zones and clarifying these zone names.

  • Cleveland and Cuyahoga Health Data Matters Redirect to Healthy
    Cleveland and Cuyahoga Health Data Matters Redirect to Healthy Northeast Ohio January 28, 2021 Healthy Northeast Ohio welcomes visitors from Cleveland and Cuyahoga Health Data Matters (HDM). As of January 31, 2021, Health Data Matters will terminate as a website. Going forward, visitors will be redirected to Healthy Northeast Ohio. As early champions of open data, Health Data Matters, led by Amy Sheon and Scott Frank at Case Western Reserve University's School of Medicine, offered an invaluable service to health departments and other organizations that wanted to make their data available to the public. Recognizing the importance of social determinants of health, the site enabled visitors to examine the relationships between poverty, education, health outcomes and health disparities, anticipating subsequent widespread interest in these topics. They also made sophisticated data visualization tools available so that people could create maps without having to have or master geographic information software. These tools were of fundamental value in recognizing the compounding effect of neighborhood segregation and poverty on health outcomes and disparities. Finally, Health Data Matters spawned innovation in public health, such as creating the Neighborhood Immersion for Compassion and Empathy Virtual Reality Empathy Training--an immersive experience of neighborhood-level data. By making Health Data Matters available at the Cleveland Medical Hackathon, Amy mentored a generation of health innovators to incorporate attention to the overall impact of their technology. She was especially instrumental in calling attention to place-based disparities in digital connectivity as a social determinant of health. Scott taught a generation of students to use mapping techniques as part of their public health training.

  • 15 Best Indiana Panfishing Lakes
    15 best Indiana panfishing lakes This information has been shared numerous places but somehow we’ve missed putting it on our own website. If you’ve been looking for a place to catch some dinner, our fisheries biologists have compiled a list of the 15 best panfishing lakes throughout Indiana. Enjoy! Northern Indiana Sylvan Lake Sylvan Lake is a 669-acre man made reservoir near Rome City. It is best known for its bluegill fishing with some reaching 9 inches. About one third of the adult bluegill population are 7 inches or larger. The best places to catch bluegill are the Cain Basin at the east end of the lake and along the 8 to 10 foot drop-offs in the western basin. Red-worms, flies, and crickets are the most effective baits. Skinner Lake Skinner Lake is a 125-acre natural lake near Albion. The lake is known for crappie fishing for both black and white crappies. Most crappies are in the 8 to 9 inch range, with some reaching 16 inches long. Don’t expect to catch lots of big crappies, but you can expect to catch plenty that are keeper-size. The best crappie fishing is in May over developing lily pads in the four corners of the lake. Live minnows and small white jigs are the most effective baits. J. C. Murphey Lake J. C. Murphey Lake is located on Willow Slough Fish and Wildlife Area in Newton County. Following this winter, there was minimal ice fishing (due to lack of ice) and the spring fishing should be phenomenal especially for bluegills.
