    MI/DEQ/WRD-13/014MI/DEQ/WRD-15/024 MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY WATER RESOURCES DIVISION JULY 2015 STAFF REPORT A BIOLOGICAL SURVEY OF THE ONTONAGON, PRESQUE ISLE, BLACK, AND MONTREAL RIVERS WATERSHEDS AND OTHER SELECTED WATERSHEDS IN GOGEBIC, HOUGHTON, IRON, AND ONTONAGON COUNTIES, MICHIGAN JULY-AUGUST 2013 INTRODUCTION Staff of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), Surface Water Assessment Section (SWAS), conducted biological, chemical, and physical habitat surveys during the summer of 2013 throughout the Ontonagon (Hydrologic Unit Code [HUC] 04020102), Presque Isle (HUC 04020101), Black (HUC 04020101), and Montreal (HUC 04010302) (OPBM) Rivers watersheds. Additionally, some streams located in smaller western Lake Superior coastal watersheds were surveyed (Figure 1). The goals of this monitoring were to: (1) assess the current status and condition of individual water bodies and determine whether Michigan Water Quality Standards (WQS) are being met; (2) evaluate biological integrity temporal trends; (3) satisfy monitoring requests submitted by external and internal customers; and (4) identify potential nonpoint source (NPS) pollution problems. These surveys qualitatively characterized the biotic integrity of macroinvertebrate communities with respect to existing habitat conditions at randomly selected sites throughout the OPBM watersheds region. The results of the surveys are used by the SWAS’s Status and Trends Program to estimate the amount of these watersheds that is supporting the other indigenous aquatic life and wildlife designated use component of R 323.1100(1)(e) of the Part 4 rules, WQS, promulgated under Part 31, Water Resources Protection, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended. BACKGROUND AND HISTORICAL SAMPLING EFFORTS The OPBM watersheds are located in the extreme west end of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

Descriotion: Tenmile Creek Road, one of but a few dirt roads remaining in le County, winds past a nineteenth century schoolhouse, a slave cabin, a fire- ~:~oof house built on the site of a turreted mansion destroyed by fire in 1945, a Victorian summer boarding house and private park, a mid-nineteenth century mill site and pond, and a deserted, early road. The road leads through a green valley where jersey cows graze, up a gentle rise and around a bend where the trees meet overhead, through a ford, to the intersection with West Old Baltimore Road and a pond of pink and yellow water lilies. The creek valley contains numerous natural springs, many lined with watercress, meadows of wildflowers, surrounded with tree covered hills. 10. Significance: The valley of Tenmile Creek, immediately northwest of Boyds, Md. is an uncompromised historic & environmentally significant area that has suc­ ceeded in maintaining its character. Saved from development, it is now threatened by an impoundment. Historically the area contains potentially signifi­ cant archeological sites -- possibly of prehistoric Indian culture -- associated with woodland settlements of eighteenth century tobacco planters, a mill site, pond, race & house, a large boarding house constructed to accommodate summer visitors after the area became accessible by railroad in 1873, & later structures erected by dairy farmers.
