The third dam was a removal. Two other dams near where this tributary's mouth at the Winnebago River were modified in January of 2017. One was removed and replaced with a low-cross vane structure. The other was converted to a rock arch rapids. Quaker Mill Dam, Maquoketa River The Quaker Mill Dam north of Manchester on the Maquoketa River was removed in the fall of 2017 as a phase 1 project. A starter channel was meandered through the former lakebed and seeded down for one year of growth prior to reconnecting it to flowing water. 2018 Dam Mitigation Projects * Phase 2 of the Quaker Mill Dam project * Ames River Valley Park Dam conversion to whitewater facility/fish passage channel * A mitigation bank is being reviewed for USACE approval based on the removal of two dams in Fort Dodge on the Des Moines River, which may be either the first stream mitigation bank in Iowa. Setting up mitigation banks in Iowa is now possible due to work Iowa DNR led to develop a method of evaluating credits to measure adverse and beneficial effects of different project type to allow credit trading. This would open fish passage to the entire East Fork Des Moines River, and the West Fork Des Moines River upstream to the Reasoner Dam in Humboldt.

  • Draft Environmental Assessment Rockford Dam Removal on the Shell Rock River, Iowa
    Rockford Dam Removal – Draft Environmental Assessment DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT ROCKFORD DAM REMOVAL ON THE SHELL ROCK RIVER, IOWA U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service La Crosse Fish and Wildlife Conservation Office 555 Lester Avenue Onalaska, WI 54650 September 2013 i Rockford Dam Removal – Draft Environmental Assessment Draft Environmental Assessment Rockford Dam Removal on the Shell Rock River, Iowa Executive Summary The La Crosse Fish and Wildlife Conservation Office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has prepared this assessment of the environmental effects that may result from the proposed removal of Rockford Dam on the Shell Rock River, Floyd County, Iowa. The purpose of the proposed action is to improve fish passage through the Rockford river reach and eliminate the public safety hazard associated with the dam. This action involves removal of the dam, stabilization of the west bank upstream of the dam, lowering of a 250 ft. long berm adjacent to the dam on the west bank, and revegetation of the disturbed areas. The Environmental Assessment provides information to the USFWS Regional Director on the potential effects of the proposed action for development of a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). This assessment addresses the need and purpose for the proposed action, identification of alternatives, description of the affected environment, examination of the environmental consequences for each alternative, and the coordination, consultation, and involvement of the public through the process. Efforts to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act are in progress. Rockford Dam was determined to be eligible for the National Historic Register of Places by the Iowa State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) under criterion D, for its potential to provide architectural information.
