Due to her navigational draft of 9.5ft., she likely tended aids that were at and below the Port of Philadelphia/Wilmington, while a smaller tender tended aids in the shallower waters upriver and along the shorelines.

  • Upawna Meadows National Wildlife Refuge
    REVIEW AND APPROVALS SUPAWNA MEADOWS NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE PENNSVILLE, NEW JERSEY ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT Calendar Year 1997 VU A*"?-/O I P °j Refuge Manager Date Refuge Supervisor ReviewO Dare Regional Office Approval Date INTRODUCTION Location Supawna Meadows NWR is located along the Delaware River in Salem County, New Jersey. It is approximately ten miles south of Wilmington, Delaware and 35 miles south of Philadelphia. Figure 1 shows the refuge and vicinity. History of the Refuge The presence of the Service in Salem County was initiated by Executive Order 6582, issued by President F. D. Roosevelt in 1934. This Order established the Killcohook Migratory Bird Refuge and gave the Service (then the Bureau of Biological Survey) secondary jurisdiction of the 1500-acre property "...as a refuge and breeding ground for wild birds and animals." The US Army Corps of Engineers retained primary jurisdiction of the area for use as a spoil disposal site in connection with dredging operations on the Delaware River. Supawna Meadows National Wildlife Refuge was originally proposed in 1961, as the "Goose Pond Addition" to Killcohook. That year marked the beginning of an accelerated land acquisition program by the Service due to the passage of the Wetlands Loan Act, which authorized $105 million for the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Fund for a seven-year period. The 1961 Goose Pond Addition proposal included approximately 4,000 acres composed of 45 % marsh, 26 % farmland, 20 % water, 6 % brush, and 3 % timber. Construction of three pools was planned and 850 acres were to be used to produce supplemental food for migrating and wintering waterfowl.

This information was used to support the continuation and revision of the current fish consumption advisories for this region and identified the need for additional fish consumption advisories.
