P.O. Box 453 Cape May Point, NJ 08212 (609) 884-2842, fax 884-4569 [email protected] [email protected] Garden Peninsula Wind Energy Project, Delta County, MI Phase I Avian Risk Assessment Garden Peninsula Wind Energy Project Delta County, Michigan Executive Summary Heritage Sustainable Energy is proposing a utility-scale wind-power project of moderate size for the Garden Peninsula on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in Delta County. This peninsula separates northern Lake Michigan from Big Bay de Noc. The number of wind turbines is as yet undetermined, but a leasehold map provided to Curry & Kerlinger indicates that turbines would be constructed on private lands (i.e., not in the Lake Superior State Forest) in mainly agricultural areas on the western side of the peninsula, and possibly on Little Summer Island. For the purpose of analysis, we are assuming wind turbines with a nameplate capacity of 2.0 MW. The turbine towers would likely be about 78.0 meters (256 feet) tall and have rotors of about 39.0 m (128 feet) long. With the rotor tip in the 12 o’clock position, the wind turbines would reach a maximum height of about 118.0 m (387 feet) above ground level (AGL). When in the 6 o’clock position, rotor tips would be about 38.0 m (125 feet) AGL. However, larger turbines with nameplate capacities (up to 2.5 MW and more) reaching to 152.5 m (500 feet) are may be used.

  • Great Lakes Islands Management Area Summary
    EUP MA 14 Michigan DNR – Eastern Upper Peninsula Eco-region Great Lakes Islands Management Area Summary The management of all state owned islands within the ecoregion is primarily the same, so all of the islands were included within this MA, with the exception of Drummond Island. The Management Area was selected for the unique features of Great Lake Islands which are associated with State Forest Lands. These include the Summer Islands (off the Garden Peninsula), Mable Annette Island and Saddlebag Island (West of Detour), and islands in the Lime Island Group (Lime, Little Lime, Love, and Hart Island). There are also a few small islands in Lake Superior including Round and Tahquamenon Island. In addition, there is also non- compartmentalized state forest land on predominately private islands, such as on Sugar, Neebish, and Marquette Islands. It is important to realize that the value of a collection of islands is much greater than the sum of the individual islands’ resources (Soule, 1993), and that management should be considered at an ecological landscape scale. Excluding Drummond Island, there are approximately 2,346 acres of state-owned land in the MA. The attributes which were important in identifying this MA include: Attributes • Ecological Classification - These islands are found along the shores of all three of the Great Lakes in the MA and in the St. Mary’s River in a variety of ecological sub-sections. • Landforms – The landforms of Great Lakes islands are variable, but many in Lakes Michigan and Huron are characterized by limestone bedrock at or near the surface. • Cultural - Lime Island Group of islands have historic and prehistoric values • Social/Economic - Management of Lime Island has a large recreational focus, with rental cabins and a protected harbor.

PIT FEATURES: A VIEW FROM GRAND ISLAND, MICHIGAN EMILY R. BARTZ 161 Pages Serving a multitude of functions from subterrestrial cavities of storage, basins for cooking, to vessels that securely hold pounds of rice allowing the grains to be danced upon to thresh, pit features are one of North Americas most common archaeological feature. These constructions are dug to fit a diversity of needs based on the people who manufacture them. By understanding the distinct function(s) a pit or group of pit features played at a site-level, the needs of the people who inhabited that landscape are better understood. The nature of a pit feature is to store or process something that is of value, by virtue of the objects pits once contained, those materials are predominantly reclaimed from the pit when it was in use.

    2005 THE MICHIGAN BOTANIST 29 THE VASCULAR FLORAOF HOG ISLAND, CHARLEVOIX COUNTY, MICHIGAN Cathryn Elizabeth Whately Department of Biology Central Michigan University Mt. Pleasant, Michigan 48859 Current address: Department of Biological Sciences Western Michigan University Kalamazoo, Michigan 49008 [email protected] Daniel E. Wujek Edwin E. Leuck II Department of Biology Department of Biology Central Michigan University Centenary College of Louisiana Mt. Pleasant, Michigan 48859 Shreveport, Louisiana 71104 [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT The vascular flora of Hog Island, the fourth largest island of the Beaver Island Archipelago, was inventoried. Up to now, some vascular plants have been collected on Beaver Island, but few speci- mens have been collected from the surrounding islands of the Beaver Island Archipelago. A Floris- tic Quality Index (FQI) value of 92.7 was calculated, indicating that the island is representative of Michigan’s pre-settlement flora. Three hundred and forty species, representing 77 families and 213 genera were collected over three field seasons (2000–2002) with collecting trips made in the spring, summer, and fall. These data were compared to data previously published for the Beaver Island Archipelago. Seventy-three percent of the plant families, 60.5% of the genera, and 43.4% of the species found on the Beaver Island Archipelago as a whole were also found on Hog Island. Among the collections were the threatened species Cirsium pitcheri, Iris lacustris, and Tanacetum huro- nense; Cypripedium arientinum, a plant of special concern; and the endangered Amerorchis rotundi- folia. Seventeen species not previously recorded for the Beaver Island group were documented.
