  • List of Services Provided by the Wastewater Department
    NOWWTP and the ROCKY RIVER The entire watershed basin is designated as a warm water habitat by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) More than 90 percent of the watershed is covered by Hydrologic Soil Types that are classified as ‘C’ and ‘D’ soils. These soils have the slowest infiltration rates and the highest runoff potential. As much as 95 percent of the area in the watershed is underlain with soils that have severe limitations for septic systems, due to low infiltration rates. City of North Olmsted Wastewater Treatment Plant was built in 1959, due in part to the urban density and in response to the number of failing septic systems in the area. National Importance: The river itself is formed by the confluence of the East and West Branches in North Olmsted at the bottom of Cedar Point Hill, just west of Cleveland- Hopkins International Airport. The headwaters of the larger West Branch are predominantly located in Medina County. The East Branch starts at Hinckley Lake. The Rocky River was ranked by Field & Stream as one of the top steelhead Trout Rivers in the world, and has also been featured on ESPN. Local Importance: One of the first purchases by the Cleveland Metro Parts was land along the banks of the Rocky River. The river runs through or along the boards of Berea, Brookpark, Cleveland, Fairview Park, Lakewood, North Olmsted, Olmsted Township, and Rocky River but provides recreational activities to all of north eastern Ohio. The Rocky River basin is strongly influenced by the geology of the area, including massive shale cliffs, large meadows, extensive forested areas, overlapping flood plains and a large amount of wetlands per acre, with a total of 3,462 acres of wetlands.

  • Escalambre, Michelle, M.A. August 2020 Geography
    ESCALAMBRE, MICHELLE, M.A. AUGUST 2020 GEOGRAPHY TRAIL IMPACTS ON MOVEMENT IN WILDLIFE CORRIDORS: A CLEVELAND METROPARKS CASE STUDY (117 pp.) Thesis Advisor: David H. Kaplan Wildlife corridors promote biodiversity, abate landscape fragmentation and – in areas of urban development – are often refuges for fauna. Yet, they appear at odds with their main goal of conserving wildlife’s natural habitat, especially when applied to a real-world context, because they are typically located in areas prone to anthropogenic disturbances. The literature varies over how concurrent use affects wildlife. One such space where this occurs is urban parks where wildlife movement overlaps spatially with recreationists. Park visitors utilize formal trails and depart from them to create informal trails. Many negative consequences toward wild biota have been attributed to informal trails, which contribute to anthropogenic-induced fragmentation and, indirectly, disturbances within the matrix. The overlap of trails with wildlife corridors begs the questions: are wildlife using the shared corridors within the reservations or should landscape, resource and trail managers be directing their efforts elsewhere to facilitate wildlife movement? Also, to what degree, if any, will wildlife move through corridors shared with humans? To answer these questions, baseline and biodiversity data needed to be established first. Employing round-the-clock, passive, remotely triggered camera pairs in two urban parks in greater Cleveland, Ohio, U.S.A., scenarios were tested along a continuum of wildlife- anthropogenic interfacing that occurs on trails. Formal and informal trails in Cleveland Metroparks were studied, in addition to an area with restored informal trails. Examining the majority of terrestrial, animal wildlife, likelihood of Verified Use was established for each species, guild, and as a whole.
