The name of Shiawassee is derived from an Indian word, meaning “Straight Ahead Channel.” On the east is Genesee County; to the south lies Ingham and Livingston Counties, to the west, Clinton and to the north, Saginaw. Shiawassee County from east to west is approximately 22 1/2 miles wide and from north to south is 24 1/2 miles long. The first white man to set foot in the Shiawassee County, as early as 1795, was a Frenchman named Bolieu. He established himself near the present site of Saginaw about that date for the purpose of trading with the Indians. The first session of the County Board of Supervisors was held in October of 1837. On October 7, 1839 the County Board of Supervisors convened at Corunna

  • Historical Human Impacts on the Grand River
    Historical Human Impacts on the Grand River Even before Europeans settled on the east banks of the Grand River, in what is now downtown Grand Rapids, humankind had been affecting the water quality of the Lower Grand River Watershed. Many native peoples used the Grand River for fishing, transportation, and other daily activities. 1“The Grand River is Michigan’s largest stream. It extends 270 miles through Jackson to Grand Haven. The Indians knew it as ‘Owashtanong’, meaning ‘far away waters’.” The Grand River Times in 1837 mentioned the Grand River as “one of the most important and delightful [rivers] to be found in the country” with “clear, silver-like water winding its way through a romantic valley.” Europeans impacted the river greatly in the next one hundred years as industrialization spread across the country. As early as 1889, Everette Fitch recorded the detrimental effects humankind was having on the Grand River. She wrote, “The channel was, as usual, covered with a green odiferous scum, mixed with oil from the gas works.” Even more than a century ago the Grand River was deteriorating, its banks clogged with mills and factories and its water clogged with logs and dams. In its history the river has been abused with waterpower, river-dependant industries, large increases in population, stripping of the forests, and discharges of chemical and sewage wastes. The prediction in 1905 by the Grand Rapids Evening Press was that by the year 2005 the Grand River would be more a sewer than a river. Today’s Human Impacts on the Grand River Today, technology and knowledge have been used to improve water quality in the main channel.

  • Thompson Lake Livingston County, T3N R4E,5E Section 25, 30, 31,36 Shiawassee River Watershed
    Michigan Department of Natural Resources 2006-21 Status of the Fishery Resource Report Page 1 Thompson Lake Livingston County, T3N R4E,5E Section 25, 30, 31,36 Shiawassee River Watershed Joseph M. Leonardi Environment Thompson Lake is located in the city limits of Howell in central Livingston County. It is an impoundment of Alger Creek, a tributary to Bogue Creek, which drains to the South Branch Shiawassee River. The South Branch Shiawassee River flows northerly to the mainstem Shiawassee River and to the Saginaw River and Lake Huron. The Howell area lies within the Ionia district of the Southern Lower Michigan Regional Landscape Ecosystem and is characterized by features identified in the Lansing sub-district (Albert 1995). The Lansing sub-district is described as gently sloping ground moraine broke by outwash channels and numerous end-moraine ridges. Undulating topography formed alternating well drained rises and poorly drained depressions of variable soils. Soils on raised moraines generally consist of medium texture sand and loam while depressions along end moraine ridges are typically fine texture, high in organic content. Outwash channels developed by glacial retreat generally formed the river and stream drainage pattern of the watershed. Shiawassee River basin groundwater and surface water patterns follow geological soils types. Medium textured soils found in the Howell area allow for greater permeability and hydraulic head pressure (groundwater elevation) resulting in groundwater deposits. Most groundwater deposits in the Shiawassee River watershed are largely concentrated in southern and southeastern portions where Thompson Lake is located (Cooper 2005). Groundwater inflow to Thompson Lake provides a stable water source necessary to maintain the aquatic ecosystem.

  • Shiatown Dam Assessment: Guiding a Community Decision for Action
    SHIATOWN DAM ASSESSMENT: GUIDING A COMMUNITY DECISION FOR ACTION PREPARED FOR: FRIENDS OF THE SHIAWASSEE RIVER BY: DAVID CHADWICK MEGAN HEARNE MICHAEL SCHULLER JOSEPH SHORT A PROJECT SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENT UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN SCHOOL OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENT APRIL 2003 FACULTY ADVISORS: ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR MICHAEL MOORE ADJUNCT PROFESSOR PAUL SEELBACH Abstract The Shiatown Dam is in disrepair and potentially threatens life and property. It nearly failed during a high water event in February 2001. Shiatown Dam is a run-of-the-river structure in the Shiawassee River, a low gradient, warm water river that drains 1260 square miles of central Michigan. The dam no longer serves an economic purpose, and many of the recreational benefits of the impoundment have disappeared as a result of dam deterioration, sedimentation and poor water quality. County residents and the owner, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, agree that action is necessary to prevent failure of the dam and to restore the value of the site. We defined the relative merits of dam repair, replacement, and removal by conducting ecological, social, and economic assessments at local and watershed levels. The cornerstone of our social assessment was a mail survey of 1500 people with a 43% response rate. Respondents greatly value the dam and river for historic significance and passive recreational opportunities. Survey results show 78% support restoring the dam despite known problems at the site. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, dam safety regulator for the state, has recommended major repairs for all parts of the dam.
