    UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER POOL 9 OVERVIEW Resource Description and General Response Considerations The PoolBackground 9 Spill Response Plan CD was developed to address the long-standing concerns about spills of oil and hazardous substances onto National Wildlife Refuge System lands along the Upper Mississippi River. The Pool 9 Overview document provides information on project background, geographic description of Pool 9, response considerations, and planning tools included in the CD. Due to long-standing concerns about spills of oil and hazardous substances affecting National Wildlife Refuge properties and associated sensitive resources on the Upper Mississippi River (UMR), the US Environmental Protection Agency, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Minnesota DNR, Wisconsin DNR, US Coast Guard, US Army Corps of Engineers, other agencies, and private sector interests, with the assistance of the Upper Mississippi River Basin Association, have developed a set of planning and response tools for the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife & Fish Refuge. The goal of this effort has been to foster communications, enhance spill contingency planning and preparedness, and to develop site-specific protection strategies that assist responders in prioritizing tactics and recommending strategies and locations to protect the Refuge and the public from releases of oil or other substances. This overview document provides a description of Pool 9 and its sensitive resources. It also provides general considerations for response. For more information, see the Site Specific Response Strategies Maps and the Pool 9 Incident Action Plan included on the Pool 9 Spill Response Plan CD. Location of Pool 9 Pool 9 of the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) is the area between Lock and Dam 8 (river mile 679), at Genoa, Wisconsin, and Lock and Dam 9 (river mile 648), near Lynxville, Wisconsin.

  • Executive Summary
    ST. CROIX RIVER CROSSING PROJECT SUPPLEMENTAL FINAL EIS ABSTRACT The Problem The Stillwater Lift Bridge is a critical crossing over the St. Croix River between Minnesota and Wisconsin. Built in 1931, the Lift Bridge is an historic transportation structure, important for its innovative engineering, but also as a symbol of Stillwater and the St. Croix valley. The bridge’s unique function as a Lift Bridge, with frequent raising to allow boats to travel the St. Croix River, is also a source of traffic congestion in Stillwater and Houlton, Wisconsin, as traffic backs up to wait for the bridge to lower and resume vehicular traffic. But traffic congestion is not only attributable to the Lift Bridge. The constrained street network in downtown Stillwater, and topographic constraints on the Wisconsin bluff, also contribute to traffic congestion and severely limit any opportunities to improve approach roadways to the Lift Bridge. Traffic on the Lift Bridge has continued to grow, with increased tourism in the St. Croix Valley, and a growing population on both sides of the river. After 70 years of service, the Lift Bridge has aged and has structural, operational, and maintenance issues. The limitations of a two-lane historic bridge, the demands of raising and lowering the bridge, and ongoing maintenance and operations have raised concerns about safety on the bridge as well as on the approach roadways, which are also at capacity and have no room for expansion or improvement within the current constraints. Over the last three years, Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT), Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) , in cooperation with a Stakeholder Group, have studied four “build” alternatives and a “no-build” alternative to find a safe and efficient river crossing over the St.
