    The Delaware Floodplain

    The Delaware Floodplain Final Draft Report September 2011 prepared by: Gerald J. Kauffman Andrew R. Homsey Water Resources Agency Institute for Public Administration School of Public Policy & Administration College of Arts & Sciences University of Delaware - www.ipa.udel.edu serving the public good, shaping tomorrow’s leaders Introduction Situated on the Delmarva Peninsula between the Delaware Bay and Chesapeake Bay, Delaware is the lowest state in the United States, with a mean elevation of just 60 feet above sea level. Vulnerable to flooding from rising sea levels and ocean-fueled tropical storm systems, coastal Delaware is one of only three states located on a peninsula. Delaware floods originate along the hilly, rocky Piedmont streams in northern New Castle County and from the tidal bay and Atlantic Ocean. The 100-year Floodplain More than 331 square miles, or 17 percent of Delaware’s landmass, lie within a mapped 100-year floodplain. The distribution of floodplains in the three Delaware counties is similar, ranging from 16 percent to 18 percent of the land. Table 1. Area of the 100-year Floodplain in Delaware County 100-year Floodplain (sq mi) Portion of County Landmass New Castle 67 16% Kent 94 16% Sussex 170 18% Road Miles in Floodplain Approximately 621 road miles are in the 100-year floodplain in Delaware. New Castle, Kent, and Sussex Counties contain 128, 75, and 418 road miles in the 100-year floodplain, respectively. Watersheds with the largest mileage of floodplain roads include the Christina River in New Castle County (44 miles), Murderkill in Kent County (16 miles), and Indian River Bay (106 miles).

Box 1715 Baltimore, Maryland 21203 Enactment of the Water Resource Development Act of 1986 provides our Nation with a framework for water resources development until well into the 21 st century. The law has made numerous changes in the way potential new projects are studied, evaluated and funded. The major change is that non-Federal cost sharing is specified for most Corps water resources projects. A new partnership now exists between the Federal government and non-Federal interests that affords the latter a key role in project planning and allows the Federal government to spread its resources over more water projects than would have been possible before. With the passage of this law, the Federal water resources program is in better shape than at any time in the past 16 years. The law authorizes over 260 new projects for inland navigation, harbor improvement, flood control, and shore protection—with additional benefits in water supply, hydropower and recreation. I hope this booklet gives you a glimpse of the extent, variety and importance of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers water resources development activities in your State. JOHN S. DOYLE, JR. Acting Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works) US Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District Our Nation's water resources program, as well as our Constitution, may well have been born on the banks of the Potomac River in the 1780s out of a disagreement between Virginia and Maryland.

  • Introduction

    Chapter 1 Introduction “We’re fans of Route 9. We like the serenity and the natural beauty of it and we’re interested in what happens to it. If I’ve had a rough day, I just take a drive down Route 9, and it relieves all the stress. It’s cheaper than a therapist.”1 Nancy Ashton, Odessa Resident Route 9 is the essence of Delaware. For 50 miles between the Colonial Court House in the City of New Castle, and the John Dickinson Plantation, Delaware’s two-lane Route 9 runs in a north to south (or south to north) direction in a course that parallels the western shore of Delaware River and Bay, winding past a succession of uniquely Delaware landscapes: heavy industrial sites, forests, tidal and non-tidal marshland, areas of significant natural resources and wildlife habitat, historic towns and quaint villages, and working farms with cultivated fields of grain, corn and soybeans. Designated by the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) as the Coastal Heritage Greenway, Route 9 is rich with the wildlife, wetlands and ecosystems of the Delaware River and Bay estuary and has a landscape filled with the record of Delaware history in the form of buildings and towns. Many important examples of Delaware’s cultural and natural history, as well as its present day agricultural, industrial, and environmental landscape, are located along Route 9. 1 Edward L. Kenney, “Push to give Del. 9 ‘Scenic’ Status Begins,” The News Journal, February 24, 2003, B1. ROUTE 9 COASTAL HERITAGE SCENIC BYWAY 1 DELAWARE SCENIC & HISTORIC HIGHWAY NOMINATION Route 9 lies within the coastal plain of the Delaware Bay, just above mean high water, and so the road is flat.

  • Water Quality Trends Along Delaware Streams from 1970 to 2005

    WATER QUALITY TRENDS ALONG DELAWARE STREAMS FROM 1970 TO 2005 Gerald J. Kauffman, Andrew C. Belden, and Christina L. Callahan1 ABSTRACT: Water quality trends from 1970 through 2005 were detected using the Seasonal Kendall test along 30 streams in the State of Delaware. Twenty-four streams flow east to the Delaware Bay and 6 streams flow west towards the Chesapeake Bay. Water quality improved or was constant at 69% of stations since 1990 and at 80% of stations since 1970-1980. Dissolved oxygen improved or was constant at 22 of 30 streams since 1990 and 8 of 25 streams since 1970-1980. Total suspended sediment improved or was constant at 21 of 28 streams since 1990 and 11 of 11 streams since 1970-1980. Enterococcus bacteria improved or was constant at 24 of 30 streams since 1990 and 25 of 27 streams since 1970-1980. Total Kjeldahl nitrogen improved or was constant at 14 of 29 streams since 1990 and 24 of 24 streams since 1970-1980. Total phosphorus improved or was constant at 19 of 29 streams since 1990 and 23 of 27 streams since 1970-1980. Median 2001–2005 levels were fair to good at 100% of DO stations, 75% for TSS, 48% for bacteria, 60% for TKN, and 43% for phosphorus. Water quality improves with increased forest area in Delaware watersheds. Since the Federal Clean Water Act Amendments of the 1970s, improving water quality stations (50) outnumbered degrading stations (23) along Delaware streams by a 2:1 margin. Since 1990, degrading water quality stations (46) exceeded improving water quality stations (38) indicating a slight reversal from the early gains achieved since the implementation of the 1970s Clean Water Act amendments.
