  • The Huron River History Book
    THE HURON RIVER Robert Wittersheim Over 15,000 years ago, the Huron River was born as a small stream draining the late Pleistocene landscape. Its original destination was Lake Maumee at present day Ypsilanti where a large delta was formed. As centuries passed, ceding lake levels allowed the Huron to meander over new land eventually settling into its present valley. Its 125 mile journey today begins at Big Lake near Pontiac and ends in Lake Erie. The Huron’s watershed, which includes 367 miles of tributaries, drains over 900 square miles of land. The total drop in elevation from source to mouth is nearly 300 feet. The Huron’s upper third is clear and fast, even supporting a modest trout fishery. The middle third passes through and around many lakes in Livingston and Washtenaw Counties. Eight dams impede much of the Huron’s lower third as it flows through populous areas it helped create. Over 47 miles of this river winds through publicly owned lands, a legacy from visionaries long since passed. White Lake White Lake Mary Johnson The Great Lakes which surround Michigan and the thousands of smaller lakes, hundreds of rivers, streams and ponds were formed as the glacier ice that covered the land nearly 14,000 years ago was melting. The waters filled the depressions in the earth. The glaciers deposited rock, gravel and soil that had been gathered in their movement. This activity sculpted the land creating our landscape. In section 28 of Springfield Township, Oakland County, a body of water names Big Lake by the area pioneers is the source of the Huron River.

  • Clinton River Remedial Action Plan Update
    The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality Biennial Remedial Action Plan Update for the Clinton River Area of Concern Compiled by: Christine Aiello Water Bureau Aquatic Nuisance Control & Remedial Action Unit Michigan Department of Environmental Quality P.O. Box 30273 Lansing, MI 48909-7773 Ph: 517-241-7504 Fax: 517-373-9958 [email protected] March ___, 2009 Purpose of the Biennial Remedial Action Plan Update A Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) Biennial Remedial Action Plan (RAP) Update will be prepared at least every 2 years for each Area of Concern (AOC), and will be the primary tool for documenting and communicating progress to the public and agencies. These documents are meant to be brief, user-friendly updates on recent remedial actions and assessments in the AOC. They are prepared by the MDEQ in consultation with the Public Advisory Council (PAC) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). These biennial RAP updates will also be posted on the MDEQ AOC web site. The biennial RAP update is one component of the MDEQ’s process for tracking AOC restoration, removing Beneficial Use Impairments (BUIs), and ultimately delisting AOCs. These processes and relevant restoration criteria are described in more detail in the MDEQ’s Guidance for Delisting Michigan’s Great Lakes Areas of Concern (MDEQ, 2008). The purpose of this Clinton River biennial RAP update is to track progress in the AOC by providing an update on those remedial actions completed in recent years. This update will discuss BUI assessment results that are based on the readiness of a BUI removal and subsequent technical committee review and recommendations.

  • Wildlife Action Plan: St. Clair
    MICHIGAN 2015 - 2025 St.St. ClairClair -- DetroitDetroit RiverRiver SystemSystem Wildlife Action Plan Today’s Priorities, Tomorrow’s Wildlife What is the St. Clair - Detroit River System? The St. Clair – Detroit River System connects the upper and lower Great Lakes and is the international boundary between the United States and Canada. The St. Clair River is the natural outlet of Lake Huron and flows approximately 40 miles in a southerly direction to Lake St. Clair. Prior to entering Lake St. Clair, the river becomes braided creating an extensive delta known as the St. Clair Flats. The Detroit River is the outlet of Lake St. Clair and flows 32 miles to Lake Erie. The habitats associated with these waters are complex and include Great Lakes Marsh, nearshore Littoral Zones, open lake and Canvasback tributary habitats, and upland communities. The Great Lakes Marshes provide crucial habitat for many species of plants and animals, and represent the most biologically significant habitats for migratory birds in the region. The wetlands of the St. Clair Flats provide habitat for a diverse assemblage of mammals, birds, amphibians, invertebrates, and plants. Nearshore Littoral Zones and tributaries provide fish and amphibians with spawning and nursery areas. The open waters of the Detroit and St. Clair Rivers provide a broad array of habitat types Mooneye and support diverse fish communities. The bays and wetlands along the river shores provide spawning and nursery habitats for multiple species and resting and foraging areas for migratory waterfowl. Tributaries to the St. Clair River include the Black, Pine, and Belle rivers which support several Species of Greatest Conservation Need.

  • 2018 WRC Annual Report
    ® Jim Nash ANNUAL REPORT 2018 Executive Summary TO THE PEOPLE OF OAKLAND COUNTY A MESSAGE FROM JIM NASH, OAKLAND COUNTY WATER RESOURCES COMMISSIONER My staff and I continued our focus on using cost-effective measures, prudent financial management and state-of-the-art operations and maintenance to make our water, sewer, and stormwater systems work even better. These long-term efforts, some listed below and others throughout the report, will bring efficiencies that will help keep our future rate increases to a minimum while protecting our vital water resources. This year we have expanded our public education efforts to help our residents understand the issues we face and how we serve the public. We are working with the Southeast Michigan Council of Governments to help Southeast Oakland County communities coordinate their development codes and ordinances to encourage the development of green stormwater infrastructure. This effort will help 14 local governments deal with stormwater issues more efficiently and will act as a model for other communities. Our office is improving the closed circuit televised monitoring of our underground infrastructure through new technologies, reducing maintenance costs and improving our asset management system. We "SPRING INTO SCIENCE" are finishing a project in Pontiac to replace all residential and commercial water EDUCATION EXPO AT CRANBROOK meters in the city, making meter reading easier and more efficient. By next fall our work at the Clinton River Water Resource Recovery Facility (formerly the Pontiac Wastewater Treatment Plant) will be completed. This project will reduce operational costs for the 13 communities now served by the facility. I joined with 700 organizations in May to celebrate National Infrastructure Week, which helps the public understand the issues facing our aging infrastructure.
