  • Belle Fourche River
    Section 319 NONPOINT SOURCE PROGRAM SUCCESS STORY WatershedSouth Partnership Restores River Dakota Waterbodies Improved Stream entrenchment and bank failure caused excess sediment to enter the Belle Fourche River, prompting South Dakota to add two segments of the river to its 2002 Clean Water Act (CWA) section 303(d) list of impaired waters for elevated total suspended solids (TSS). The Belle Fourche River Watershed Partnership led efforts to restore riparian grazing areas and reduce the volume of unused irriga- tion water returning to the river, both of which reduced the amount of sediment entering the river. Water quality has improved and standards are now being met. South Dakota removed both segments of the Belle Fourche River from the 2008 CWA section 303(d) list for TSS. Problem The South Dakota portion of the Belle Fourche River watershed (Figure 1) drains parts of Butte, Lawrence and Meade counties. The river flows eastward into the Cheyenne River and ultimately to the Missouri River. Land use in the watershed is primarily livestock grazing with some cropland and a few urban and suburban areas. Data show that elevated levels of sediment in the river were causing TSS levels to exceed the water quality standard of 158 milligrams per liter (mg/L) TSS daily maximum. Therefore, South Dakota added two seg- ments of the Belle Fourche River—a 23-mile-long segment from near Fruitdale to Whitewood Creek and a 17-mile-long segment from Whitewood Creek to Willow Creek—to the 2002 CWA section 303(d) Figure 1. The Belle Fourche River watershed drains list of impaired waters.

  • Geology of Devils Tower National Monument Wyoming
    Geology of /« H t» , Devils Tower tl National Monument Wyoming GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BULLETIN 1021-1 O S3 oSc o os *3 w T A CONTRIBUTION TO GENERAL GEOLOGY By CHARLES S. ROBINSON ABSTRACT Devils Tower is a steep-sided mass of igneous rock that rises above tne sur- ^ ronnding hills and the valley of the Belle Fourche River in Crook County, Wyo. It is composed of a crystalline rock, classified as phonolite porphyry, that when -(. fresh is gray but which weathers to green or brown. Vertical joints divide the rock mass into polygonal columns that extend from just above the base to the * top of the Tower. i The hills in the vicinity and at the base of the Tower are composed of red, 1 yellow, green, or gray sedimentary rocks that consist of sandstone, shale, or gypsum. These rocks, in aggregate about 400 feet thick, include, from oldest to youngest, the upper part of the Spearfish formation, of Triassic age, the A Gypsum Spring formation, of Middle Jurassic age, and the Sundance formation, of Late Jurassic age. The Sundance formation consists of the Stockade Beaver ~t, shale member, the Hulett sandstone member, the Lak member, and the Red- water shale member. * The formations have been only slightly deformed by faulting and folding. Within 2,000 to 3,000 feet of the Tower, the strata for the most part dip at 3°-5° towards the Tower. Beyond this distance, they dip at 2°-5° from the Tower. The Tower is believed to have been formed by the intrusion of magma into the sedimentary rocks, and the shape of the igneous mass formed by the cooled k .

  • Final Report
    FINAL REPORT Determination of river otter (Lontra canadensis) distribution and evaluation of potential sites for population expansion in South Dakota 1 October 2011 - 30 January 2015 Prepared for: Wildlife Diversity Program South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Submitted by Wayne E. Melquist, Ph.D. CREX Consulting [email protected] May 2015 Grant Number T-55-R-1, Study No. 2465 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Completion of this project would have been immensely more challenging were it not for the support, cooperation, and encouragement of numerous South Dakota Game, Fish, and Parks (SDGFP) personnel. Silka Kempema, biologist with the Wildlife Diversity Program, was my primary contact in administering this contract, including multiple amendments. She never hesitated to assist in any way possible and enthusiastically joined me on floats down the Belle Fourche and Cheyenne Rivers. Silka has been a good companion and friend. Behind the scene, Eileen Dowd Stukel, head of the Wildlife Diversity Program, facilitated many aspects of the project and provided valuable input and review of the final report. Heather Berg, GIS Analyst, exhibited great patience with me during production of the maps found in the report, even when we went through multiple iterations before arriving at a final product. And Chelsea West, Heather’s supervisor, has provided me with graphic assistance for a decade of South Dakota projects. Jacquie Ermer, Regional Wildlife Manager, Watertown, conducted some of the early assessments of otters in South Dakota, and was a kindred spirit when it came to furbearers. The door was always open at the “Ermer Hotel” whenever I was in the Webster area, and I enjoyed sharing time with her family.
