  • Red River of the North Fisheries Management Plan
    Red River of the North Fisheries Management Plan Minnesota Department of Natural Resources North Dakota Game and Fish Department Manitoba Water Stewardship South Dakota Department of Game, Fish and Parks April 2008 - 2012 Red River of the North Fisheries Management Plan I. Red River of the North Description The hydrologic headwaters of Red River of the North (Red River) originate in the upper portions of the Otter Tail River watershed. Red River of the North, by name, begins at the confluence of the Bois de Sioux and Otter Tail rivers and flows northward approximately 545 miles through the bed of glacial Lake Agassiz where it empties into Lake Winnipeg (Figure 1). The upstream 400 miles of Red River forms the Minnesota-North Dakota border and the downstream 145 miles flow through southern Manitoba, Canada. Red River has a watershed area of approximately 45,000 square miles excluding the Assiniboine River basin, which joins Red River at Winnipeg. Twenty-one primary subwatersheds located in North Dakota, Minnesota, and Manitoba empty into Red River (Figure 1). Approximately 46.6% of the Red River watershed (21,000 mi 2) lies in North Dakota, 38.9% (17,500 mi 2) in Minnesota, 12.7% (5,700 mi 2) in Manitoba and 1.8% (810 mi 2) in South Dakota (Eddy et al. 1972). Land use throughout the basin is dominated by agricultural practices. Red River is a highly sinuous, low gradient warmwater river with an extensive floodplain. Stream sinuosity through the U.S. portion of Red River averages 2.0, ranging from 1.6 to 2.6 through the different segments.

SNAKE RIVE R (MN) HUC: 09020309 Introduction The Snake River 8-Digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) subbasin is part of the Red River Basin in northwestern Minnesota. The watershed occurs in the Glacial Lake Agassiz Plains ecoregion. Soils at the mouth of the watershed are clayey soils of the lake plain. Moving eastward, soils are black, limey, clayey soils in the central part of the watershed, and sandy soils in the eastern headwaters of the watershed. The greater Red River basin characteristically has a poorly defined floodplain and low gradient that combine with extensive drainage, widespread conversion of tallgrass prairie to farmland, and urban/ suburban development to leave the basin subject to frequent floods that affect urban and rural infrastructure and agricultural production.

    TRANSFORMATION OF THE RED RIVER VALLEY OF THE NORTH: AN ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Kathleen Ruth Gilmore Brokke In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Major Department: History, Philosophy, and Religious Studies December 2015 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title TRANSFORMATIONS OF THE RED RIVER VALLEY OF THE NORTH: AN ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY By Kathleen Ruth Gilmore Brokke The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Dr. Mark Harvey Chair Dr. Thomas Isern Dr. Gary K. Clambey Dr. Jim Mochoruk Approved: April 14, 2016 Dr. John K. Cox Date Department Chair ABSTRACT This environmental history of the Red River Valley from the mid 1850s – 2000 encompasses those who lived in this tallgrass prairie region and asks how did they live within this environment? In addition, it seeks to understand how they utilized their surrounding natural world. Beyond this, with less than 1 percent of the tallgrass prairie remaining, this work showcases an important aspect of our region few know. Why is this important? The tallgrass helped create the fertile soil, which is the major reason for the high yields of wheat and other crops, and agriculture is the major industry in this region. Also, many of the native plants that once grew abundantly were eaten as food or used as medicine. A ‘cornucopia’ of food existed in this region.

  • Snake River Watershed Conditions Report
    A SNAKE RIVER WATERSHED CONDITIONS REPORT Topical Report RSI-2483 Prepared by Megan Burke Emily Javens RESPEC prepared for Middle-Snake-Tamarac Rivers Watershed District 453 North McKinley Street Warren, Minnesota 56762 February 2015 1935 West County Road B2, Suite 320 Roseville, MN 55113 651.788.7813 Snake River Watershed Conditions Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Snake River Watershed Conditions Report describes the watershed’s physical characteristics, provides an overview of its water resources, and describes current water quality conditions. This includes summarizing water runoff (floods to drought), patterns in water quality, potential stressors to the biological integrity of the waterbodies, and information gaps. The development of the conditions report is the first step in building a Snake River Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategy (WRAPS). The ultimate goal of the Snake River WRAPS is to develop and implement strategies to protect waters where conditions meet water quality standards and to restore waters that are impaired. This report and subsequent WRAPS will provide additional knowledge and tools for balancing the needs of intense land uses (agriculture and urban development), including flood reduction with the preserving of ecological functions via watershed-based approaches. Located in the Red River of the North Basin in northwestern Minnesota, the Snake River and Middle River Watersheds drain an area of 611,800 acres (or approximately 956 square miles). The Snake River flow network includes two converging rivers, with the Middle River flowing to the west across the northern portion and joining the Snake River and the South Branch of the Snake River draining lands from the southern portion of the watershed.
