Root River Watershed Landscape Stewardship Plan Root River Watershed Landscape Stewardship Plan © Coldsnap Photography June 2013 Sections 1 through 9 and the appendices of this plan were written by Zach Reusch, Acer Forest and Tree, LLC. Sections 10 and 11 were written by Brooke Haworth, Ecologist with the Ecological and Water Resources Division of the Minnesota DNR.

  • Driftless Area National Wildlife Refuge
    DRIFTLESS AREA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE McGregor, Iowa ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT FY2006 DRIFTLESS AREA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE McGregor, Iowa Fiscal Year 2006 _________________________ Prepared by Date _________________________ ______________________________ Refuge Manager Date Complex Manager Date ______________________________ Regional Chief, NWRS Date INTRODUCTION 1. Location The Driftless Area National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1989 for the protection and recovery of the threatened Northern monkshood and endangered Iowa Pleistocene snail. These species occur on a rare habitat type termed algific talus slopes. These are slopes with outflows of cold underground air that provide a glacial relict habitat to which certain species have adapted (see diagram below). The Driftless Area National Wildlife Refuge consists of ten units scattered throughout Allamakee, Clayton, Dubuque, and Jackson Counties in northeast Iowa. Total Refuge acreage is 811 acres with individual units ranging from 6 to 208 acres. Acquisition targets not only the algific slope, but surrounding buffer habitat that includes sinkholes important to air flow to the slope. Acquisition is ongoing, but limited due to insufficient funds. 2. Topography Refuge units are primarily forested and generally consist of steep topography with narrow creek valleys, large rock outcroppings, and karst features. Riparian and grassland habitat also occur on the Refuge. 3. Points of Interest The algific talus slope habitat of the Refuge harbors many unusual and rare plant and land snail species, some of which are also on the state threatened and endangered species list. These areas tend to be scenic with cliffs and rock outcroppings, springs, and coldwater streams. 4. Physical Facilities The Refuge office is located at the McGregor District of the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge, McGregor, Iowa.
