Missouri AHHUAL HARRATIUE REPORT Calendar Year 1990 ~efUge Manager 3,;{/ /:;rr u~~ Date Refuge Superuisor Reuiew Date Regional Office Approual Date INTRODUCTION Clarence Cannon National Wildlife Refuge, located in Pike County, Missouri, one mile east of Annada, is situated within the Mississippi River floodplain adjacent to Pool No. 25. The refuge has 12 manageable moist soil units totaling 1,362 surface acres, 237 acres of green tree reservoirs, 4 semi-permanent water bodies totaling 72 acres, 750 acres of recently tilled cropland and 1,330 acres of other lands including forests, brush, grass and water. Total acreage is 3,751. A levee around the perimeter of the refuge provides protection from the Mississippi River floodwaters in most years. The refuge was purchased fee title in 1964 with funds from the sale of migratory waterfowl stamps. The refuge, named after Congressman Clarence Cannon, was established with the primary objective of providing a feeding and resting area for waterfowl during migration. Recent emphasis has elevated the importance of management of moist soils to provide for the needs of waterfowl and other wildlife while de-emphasizing the cropland management program. 5 2 3 1 Personnel 1.

HIGHLIGHTS After two of the driest years in refuge history, 1990 brought much needed precipitation. The year's total was 8.1 inches above the average annual rainfall (Section B). Office Assistant Watts received a $500 award for her suggestion of the year (Section E.l.). Maintenance Mechanic Allan received an $800 Special Achievement Award for his outstanding efforts restoring wetlands (Sections E.1 and E.8.). The refuge staff received a Special Act Service Award for completing the year without an accident (Section E. 6.). Diane Kania transferred from Swan Lake Refuge to serve as Assistant Manager beginning March 25 (Section E. 1.). Two wetlands on private lands were restored through refuge efforts (Section E. 8.). Flood damage supplemental monies were used to rehabilitate 3,000 feet of road (Section I. 2.). B. CLIMATIC CONDITIONS After two of the driest years in refuge history, 1990 brought much needed precipitation. The year's total was 8.1 inches over the average. Spring was a very wet season which allowed high river levels to flow into the refuge, filling the moist soil units and resulting in excellent habitat conditions . It was impossible to dewater the green tree reservoirs, croplands, and construction sites until July. Precipitation for the remainder of the year was normal and by September, the moist soil units were dry and pumping was required to prepare the units for early migrants. The nearly 13 inches of rain in May and June replenished water in District wetlands; however, the excessive moisture caused flooding along the Mississippi River, drowning crops that were planted in early May and delaying planting on other areas until late July. The river crested at five feet above flood stage on June 25. Because of flooding no crops were planted on Gregory Landing; crops on Bear Creek were planted but lost in the flood; and part of the crops on Long Island were planted as planned but lost in the flood. Milo and beans were aerial seeded in the silt as waters receded from Long Island in late July with minimal success. Temperatures were normal throughout the year. A high of 102°F was recorded in July and a low of -1°F was recorded in December. This was the first year in the last few years where temperatures did not fall well below zero for weeks at a time. However, the year ended with snow and ice storms, resulting in dangerous driving conditions. 2 Climatic conditions are summarized in Figures 1 and 2, pages 3 and 4. C. LAND ACQUISITION 4. Farmers Home Administration Conservation Easements Refuge staff inspected seven properties in 1990 and recommended two easements, one in Lewis County (Logsdon) and one in Franklin County (Kommer) . With these two properties, the total number of easement proposals is 20 and the total number of fee title proposals is 3. Eight easements were posted in 1990. Letters were sent out to each landowner of the easements, offering to meet with them to discuss the easement boundaries and conditions. Out of 10 landowners, refuge staff held productive meetings with 6 landowners. The others indicated no interest in meeting refuge staff. Letters were also sent out to each FmHA County Supervisor, requesting the date of their contaminant

    Salt River WATERSHED INVENTORY AND ASSESSMENT DOCUMENT PREPARED BY: H. Ross Dames and Brian Todd Missouri Department of Conservation For additional information contact Fisheries Regional Supervisor Missouri Department of Conservation 2500 South Halliburton, Kirksville, MO 63501 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Salt River basin drains 2,914 square miles of northeastern Missouri and lies in the Dissected Till Plains physiographic region. The North Fork, South Fork, and lower Salt River sub-basins compose 32%, 42%, and 27% of the basin, respectively. Clarence Cannon Dam, located on the Salt River approximately 63 miles upstream from its confluence with the Mississippi River, forms the 18,600 acre Mark Twain Lake. There are 165 third-order and larger streams in the basin. The North Fork Salt River is the longest stream flowing about 119 miles. In the upper portion of the basin, where local relief is low, glacial till is overlain by loess deposits in most areas. In the valleys of the Middle and South fork sub-basins, streams have eroded to expose limestone bedrock and shales. In the central part of the basin around Mark Twain Lake, relief increases and exposed limestone and shales in the valley walls and streambeds are more prevalent. Till quickly shallows in the lower Salt River sub-basin as valleys become more abrupt with high relief. A relief of 440 feet is attained the lower end of the Salt River basin. Soils throughout most of the basin are typical of the Central Claypan Region, except in the extreme lower portion that is located in the Central Mississippi Valley Wooded Slopes region.

    Jamie L. Whitten Collection Series 21: Special Letters Scrapbooks This series consists of letters and other documents set aside in scrapbooks because Representative Jamie Whitten or his office staff determined them to be “special.” They are a mix of commendations, reports on Whitten, letters from prominent individuals and congressional colleagues, and postal cachets. As a result this series documents highlights of Whitten’s career between 1932 and 1994. Archivists removed the contents from scrapbooks to improve preservation and access since the adhesive and plastic covers on the album pages prevented review of multi-page documents.

  • Board of Regents, Not All Are That Well-Known
    Well-Known Smithsonian Regents Although the chief justices and vice presidents since 1846 have sat on the Board of Regents, not all are that well-known. The following are regents that were well-known, a description of their tenures as regents, and a bit of information about them. There is a biographical entry on every regent in the history of the Smithsonian catalog on Smithsonian Collections Search Center. Robert Dale Owen, 08/10/1846–12/1847, citizen regent, was a radical reformer, involved in the development of a utopian community in New Harmony, Indiana. He was inspired by Smithson’s gift [http://www.150.si.edu/smithexb/start.htm] and played a key role in the design of the first Smithsonian building, the Smithsonian Institution Building, the Castle.

Jefferson Davis, 12/30/1847–03/1851, president of the Confederacy, served as a US senator from Mississippi and was a member of the Regents Building Committee and the Committee on Copyright. Davis had a warm collegial relationship with the first Secretary, Joseph Henry, [link to Henry Secretaries page 3.1.3.1.0.0] and Henry endured some suspicion during the Civil War due to that relationship.

    This document scanned from Box D2 of the Gerald R. Ford Congressional Papers at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library. Una IfM~Vm~ef~ 7· 6'1 Congressman JERRY FORD May 3, 1961 The last issue of our REVIEW concluded with the statement that the House of Repre­ sentatives during the week would have an opportunity to approve more "backdoor spending" or demand greater fiscal responsibility as it completed action on S. 1, the Area Re­ development bill. Unfortunately,tha.House chose to approve more "backdoor spending." By a vote of 223 to 193, the House accepted the final version of S. 1 including the provision added by the Senate eliminating a House requirement for annual appropria­ tions to finance the redevelopment bill. The Congress surrendered to Administration demands that it be allowed to use all the funds authorized without having to give an annual accounting or to justify an annual appropriation to the Senate and House Committees on Appropriations. Rep. Clarence Cannon, the Democratic Chairman of the House Committee on Appro­ priations in discussing this bill on the floor of the House said: "I ask any of those gentlemen who are jamming this bill through the House to give us the total amount the U. S. Government is obligated to pay. Nobody knows. There is no way for anybody to know. We have been shoveling money out through the back door at such a rate there is no way to estimate it....And mind you it is not defense money they are spending. It is non-defense money that is throwing us into the red ...
