  • Mississippi River Flooding June 2008
    Mississippi River Flooding Title of Event June 2008 (Calibri 20 pt. – BOLD) St. Louis All sections have a title Overview Calibri (Body) 16 pt. – BOLD An extraordinary flood took place on the Mississippi River in June of 2008, resulting from two major rainfall events in Wisconsin and Iowa. The Wisconsin flooding resulted from two separate events, totaling more than 10 inches of rain over most of the southern third of the state. This resulted in record flooding for more than half of the All of the descriptive text is written in forecast points across southeastern Wisconsin. In Iowa, two separate rain events generated record flooding at a Calibri (Body) 11 pt. dozen forecast points along the Cedar, Iowa, Wapsipinicon, and Mississippi Rivers. As the floodwaters moved south, the Mississippi River produced near-record flooding from Canton, MO to General Ordering of Content Clarksville, MO with major flooding also reported at Grafton, IL and Chester, IL. The high backwater on adjacent tributaries resulted in significant flooding along the North River at Palmyra, MO, the Cuivre River at Old Monroe, MO, the Illinois River at LaGrange, Meredosia, Valley City, and Hardin, IL, and the Meramec River at Arnold, MO. The Missouri River also experienced flooding at all points in the service area, with moderate flood crests reported at 1) Overview Section giving a Jefferson City and Hermann, MO. description of the event 2) Overview Map with analysis of rainfall amounts 3) Any environmental maps and description 4) List of any storm total rainfall amounts if not included earlier reports 5) Maps, pictures, hydrographs, and other information 6) Any radar data and description 7) Final page with webmaster contact *Please note that not all of this content will be available for each case.

  • 5 Natural Resources
    5 Natural Resources VISION Our natural resources are preserved and well managed to maintain a balance between development and the environment. SUMMARY The natural environment places both opportunities and constraints on the way land is utilized. Soil characteristics, the slope of the land and flooding frequency are a few of the many factors which affect land development. Other environmental considerations include wetlands, vegetative cover, and sensitive environmental areas. Approximately 70 percent of St. Charles County drains into the Mississippi River, while the remaining southern 30 percent drains into the Missouri River. Approximately 43 percent of the county is within 100-year floodplains. Other areas of the county having 100-year floodplain designations are along the Cuivre River, Dardenne Creek, Peruque Creek, Femme Osage Creek, and Big Creek. St. Charles County, being part of the St. Louis Region, has been designated as a moderate non-attainment area for the eight-hour ozone standard of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Current ozone modeling and forecasting indicate that the St. Louis Region will be able to meet the eight- hour ozone standard by 2009. The attainment deadline for the St. Louis Region is June 10, 2010. The St. Louis Region also does not meet EPA regulations relating to fine particles (less than 2.5 microns in diameter). Particle matter (PM) is a mix of solid particles and liquid droplets suspended in air. Fine PM is made up of a variety of components including acid, organic chemicals, metals, dirt, and dust particles. New strategies resulting in additional reductions in emissions will likely be necessary to achieve new national air quality standards.

  • Treaty of 1804 on November 3, 1804, Four Sauk and One Meskwaki
    Treaty of 1804 On November 3, 1804, four Sauk and one Meskwaki signed a treaty with the United States ceding to them over 50 million acres of land. The cession encompassed all Sauk and Meskwaki tribal lands in Illinois, southwestern Wisconsin, and northeastern Missouri. The payment received in exchange for the cession was $2234.50 in goods at the time of signing and a $1000 annuity to be paid to the tribes in perpetuity. What a steal! Indeed. What a steal. The Treaty of 1804 was clearly fraudulent. Five men, on their own, had no authority to cede tribal lands. The American officials who “negotiated” the treaty knew this. So how did it happen? Where does the story begin? The story begins with the power struggles between Great Britain, France, Spain, and the United States over land, fortunes, and empires. In 1763, France ceded to Spain 828,800 square miles of land west of the Mississippi River (the land later known as the Louisiana Purchase). In 1800, Spain secretly ceded the land back to France. Napoleon Bonaparte had ambitions of creating an empire on the North American continent. President Thomas Jefferson was alarmed at the notion of France establishing such an empire. In 1801, Jefferson initiated secret negotiations with France to purchase the land in question. At the same time Jefferson pushed the Indian nations living east of the Mississippi River to cede their tribal lands to the United States. His goal was to acquire as much land as possible to act as a counterweight to Napoleon’s ambitions. From 1801 to 1803, six different Indian nations signed land cession treaties, including the Kaskaskia who ceded much of southwestern Illinois.
