Water reached several portions of the Valley Trail between Picnic Areas 7 and 10 in Rock Creek Park, and completely covered the Rolling Meadows Trailbridge. The peak level of 8.02 feet occurred at 3:45 AM on the 16th. A potent upper-level low and associated area of surface low pressure approached the region from southwest on the 15th. Strong forcing for ascent and ample moisture transport in advance of the upper level low led to a prolonged period of rain across the region. Eventually low pressure transferred to the coast before precipitation wound down on the 16th. Widespread rainfall totals of 2-4 inches were observed across the area.

    People, land, and water of the Upper Thornton River Watershed: A model for countywide watershed management planning Final Report to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation RappFLOW Grant #2005-0001-039 Prepared by Beverly Hunter, Project Director [email protected] Phone: 540 937-4038 This report is available in pdf format from www.rappflow.org November 29, 2006 12/18/2006 1 Introduction Rappahannock Friends and Lovers of Our Watershed (RappFLOW) is a group of volunteers founded in the summer of 2002. We work with many partner organizations as well as local leaders, landowners, and other stakeholders to help preserve, protect and restore the watersheds and water quality in Rappahanock County, Virginia. In this report, we provide highlights of the results, lessons learned and progress made from March 2005 through November 2006 in the project “People, land, and water of the Upper Thornton River Watershed: A model for countywide watershed management planning.” This project was funded in part by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, the County of Rappahannock, nonprofit organizations, and private donors. Several state agencies provided technical assistance and training. Rappahannock County is a rural, scenic county with a population of about 7,000 at the headwaters of the Rappahannock River Basin. Seven hundred and fifty-five (755) stream miles in 1,010 stream segments (National Hydrology Database 2005), many on steep slopes, crisscross our land area of about 267 square miles. The northwestern boundary is in the Blue Ridge Mountains, in Shenandoah National Park. The Rappahannock River forms the northeastern boundary with Fauquier County.

  • Most Effective Basins Funding Allocations Rationale May 18, 2020
    Most Effective Basins Funding Allocations Rationale May 18, 2020 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Chesapeake Bay Program Office Most Effective Basins Funding In the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 Appropriations Conference Report, an increase to the Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) Budget was provided in the amount of $6 million for “state-based implementation in the most effective basins.” This document describes the methodology EPA followed to establish the most effective use of these funds and the best locations for these practices to be implemented to make the greatest progress toward achieving water quality standards in the Chesapeake Bay. The most effective basins to reduce the effects of excess nutrient loading to the Bay were determined considering two factors: cost effectiveness and load effectiveness. Cost effectiveness was considered as a factor to assure these additional funds result in state-based implementation of practices that achieve the greatest benefit to water quality overall. It was evaluated by looking at what the jurisdictions have reported in their Phase III Watershed Implementation Plans (WIPs) as the focus of their upcoming efforts, and by looking at the average cost per pound of reduction for BMP implementation by sector. Past analyses of cost per pound of reduction have shown that reducing nitrogen is less costly by far than reducing phosphorus1. Based on that fact, EPA determined that the focus of this evaluation would be to target nitrogen reductions in the watershed. Evaluating the load reduction targets in all the jurisdictions’ Phase III WIPs shows that the agricultural sector is targeted for 86 percent of the overall reductions identified to meet the 2025 targets collectively set by the jurisdictions.

  • The Patapsco Forest Reserve: Establishing a “City Park” for Baltimore, 1907-1941
    87 RESEARCH ARTICLES The Patapsco Forest Reserve: Establishing a “City Park” for Baltimore, 1907-1941 Geoffrey L. Buckley, Robert F. Bailey, and J. Morgan Grove THE PATAPSCO My own – my native river, Thou flashest to the day – And gatherest up thy waters In glittering array; The spirits of thy bosom Are waking from their rest, And O! their shouts are banishing Sad feelings from my breast. From Charles Soran, The Patapsco and Other Poems, Third Edition, with Additions. (Baltimore: Printed by Sherwood & Co., 858) n 897, a contributor to the editorial pages of the Baltimore News informed readers that Baltimore had “but one great park.” Rather than lavish praise on Druid Hill Park, however, the editorialist chose Ito draw attention to the “undeveloped condition” of the city’s other parks. After taking the mayor to task for ignoring the problem and accusing the city of “wastefulness, neglect and bad management,” the writer concluded: “The parks of our city should be for the people – all the people – not for a particular class, or for those living in a particular district. Park pleasures and benefits should be available to all, and when a city grows as large as Baltimore now is it is self-evident that one park will not do for all. We should have a series of parks adequate to the wants of Geoffrey L. Buckley is Associate Professor ofin Geography at Ohio University in Athens, OH. Robert F. Bailey is with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. J. Morgan Grove is a Research Forester at the USDA Forest Service Northeastern Forest Experiment Station in South Burlington, VT.
