Fiscal Year 2023 Notice of Future Proposed Sales According to Idaho State Land Board of Land Commissioners policy, this document serves to notify the public of the proposed endowment timber sales being developed by the Idaho Department of Lands for two years in the future. Sales where wildfire, insect infestation, disease infection, extreme weather events or other extraordinary circumstances that require the expeditious removal of affected timber may not be listed in this document. Sales that capture dynamic or unique market opportunies may not be listed in this document. The Idaho Department of Lands tentatively plans to conduct field work on the following timber sales for the fiscal year 2023 annual sales plan and on sales proposed beyond fiscal year 2023. Volumes and acres are approximate. All pages of this document are tentative plans and contain more sales, volumes, and acres than will be offered for sale in fiscal year 2023. A more definitive draft of the proposed fiscal year 2023 timber sale plan will be posted to this website in January, 2022. The proposed fiscal year 2022 plan is subject to review and approval at the April 2022 meeting of the Idaho State Board of Land Commissioners.

  • On the Formation of Fluvial Islands
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Joshua R. Wyrick for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering presented on March 31, 2005. Title: On the Formation of Fluvial Islands Abstract approved: Signature redacted for privacy. Peter C. Klingeman This research analyzes the effects of islands on river process and the effects river processes have on island formation. A fluvial island is defined herein as a land mass within a river channel that is separated from the floodplain by water on all sides, exhibits some stability, and remains exposed during bankfull flow. Fluvial islands are present in nearly all major rivers. They must therefore have some impact on the fluid mechanics of the system, and yet there has never been a detailed study on fluvial islands.Islands represent a more natural state of a river system and have been shown to provide hydrologic variability and biotic diversity for the river. This research describes the formation of fluvial islands, investigates the formation of fluvial islands experimentally, determines the main relations between fluvial islands and river processes, compares and describes relationships between fluvial islands and residual islands found in megaflood outwash plains, and reaches conclusions regarding island shape evolution and flow energy loss optimization. Fluvial islands are known to form by at least nine separate processes: avulsion, gradual degradation of channel branches, lateral shifts in channel position, stabilization of a bar or riffle, isolation of structural features, rapid incision of flood deposits, sediment deposition in the lee of an obstacle, isolation of material deposited by mass movement, and isolation of riparian topography after the installation of a dam.

  • Fish Order 210.21 Trout Streams
    STATE OF MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES LANSING GRETCHEN WHITMER DANIEL EICHINGER GOVERNOR DIRECTOR A P P R O V E D ______________________,20____ SUBMITTED: July 20, 2020 MICHIGAN NATURAL RESOURCES COMMISSION RESUBMITTED: August 17, 2020 _____________________________ (ASSISTANT TO THE COMMISSION) MEMORANDUM TO THE NATURAL RESOURCES COMMISSION Subject: Fisheries Order 210.21 Designated Trout Streams for Michigan Authority: The Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, authorizes the Director and the Commission to issue Orders to regulate the taking of fish in the waters of this state. Discussion and Background: Fisheries Order 210 governs designated trout streams in Michigan. Fisheries Division recommends adding one stream to the Order and removing one stream from the Order. Carter Creek in Roscommon County has recently been surveyed where a thriving brook trout population has been documented. Adding Carter Creek to the Order will result in greater protection of brook trout by placing it into Type 1 trout fishing regulations. This will place a fishing and possession season from the last Saturday in April through September 30. The closed season will protect brook trout when they are most vulnerable during spawning season. Wright Creek in Oscoda County has been recommended for removal since the habitat is not suitable for trout. Several fisheries surveys have failed to document any trout and temperature data indicates that this is a warmwater stream which will not support trout. Removing Wright Creek will result in defaulting to general statewide fishing regulations open all year to fishing. Issue Pros and Cons Adding a stream to this Order will result in placing more protective fishing regulations on a valued trout population.

  • Surface Water Quality in Otsego County, NY, Prior to Potential Natural Gas Exploration
    Surface water quality in Otsego County, NY, prior to potential natural gas exploration 1 Sarah Crosier Abstract –Baseline water quality data was established for Otsego County, NY prior to potential natural gas exploration. Hydraulic fracturing may contaminate surface water with chemicals, salts and sediments. Averages for pH, total dissolved solids, and conductivity were calculated for 50 Otsego County streams from data collected using a YSI® multi-parameter probe from August 2010 – April 2012. Limestone bedrock sub-watersheds had significantly higher conductivity, TDS and pH than shale bedrock sub-watersheds. Winter and summer peaks and fall and spring lows occurred in conductivity and TDS. Road salt use, precipitation and evaporation likely caused seasonal variation. Sub-watershed size had no significant effect on parameters. These data will serve as a control for future water quality testing if hydraulic fracturing occurs in Otsego County, NY. INTRODUCTION This study was conducted to identify baseline water quality conditions at base flow for streams in Otsego County. Water quality varies between streams due to different physical, chemical, and microbiological characteristics (Rajeshwari and Saraswathi 2009). These factors are dependent upon topography, geology, vegetative cover (Dosskey et al. 2010), land use in a watershed (Ou and Wang 2011) and watershed size (Landers et al. 2007). Stream chemistry varies naturally throughout the seasons due to changes in precipitation, evaporation, nutrient input, and biotic activity within the streams. Anthropogenic pollutants such as road salt (Jackson and Jobbágy 2005, Kaushal et al. 2005), urban storm water runoff and agricultural pesticides, nutrients, and sediments (Madden et al. 2007) also affect stream quality variably.

  • Baseline Surface Water Monitoring in Otsego County
    Acknowledgements I would like to thank the following people and departments for their assistance in making this project possible. This research was partially funded by the Otsego County Conservation Association through Scott Fickbohm at the Otsego County Soil and Water Conservation District. Other funding came from the Departments of Chemistry, and Geology and Environmental Sciences at Hartwick College. I thank Dr. John Dudek, who assisted me with instrumentation throughout my analytical work and Dr. Zsuzsanna Balogh-Brunstad, who served as a mentor and thesis advisor for this project. ii Baseline Water Quality Monitoring in the Watersheds of Otsego County, NY by Nicole M. Daniels, B.A. Hartwick College May 2013 Advisor: Dr. Zsuzsanna Balogh-Brunstad Abstract The Marcellus Shale has become of particular interest to those interested in natural gas production using the now economically feasible hydraulic fracturing (fracking) technique. The Otsego County Soil and Water Conservation District has begun monitoring local watersheds so that a baseline for various parameters (pH, turbidity, total dissolved solid, temperature, and electrical conductivity) can be set. This way, if the Marcellus Shale in New York State is selected for natural gas extraction using hydraulic fracturing methods, the water quality can be compared to pre-gas extraction levels to insure the integrity of the water quality and ecosystem. The goal of this study was to determine the current concentrations of strontium in surface water in Otsego County, NY as it is an indicator of brine water input to freshwater ecosystems. Brines are associated with flowback and production waters of natural gas extraction after fracking operations, and thus, can indicate a mishandling of such fluids on the surface.

Maryland is one of the Eastern States, bordering on the Atlantic Ocean, about midway between the northern and southern boundaries of the country. It lies between latitudes 37° 53' and 39° 44', and between longitudes 75° 04 and 79° 33'. Its neighbors are Pennsyl­ vania on the north, West Virginia and Virginia on the west and south, and Delaware on the east. Its north boundary is Mason and Dixon's line, and its east boundary is, in part, a nearly north-south line separating it from Delaware and Pennsylvania, and, in part, the Atlantic Ocean. On the south the boundary is an irregular line across the peninsula separating Chesapeake Bay from the Atlantic Ocean; then across Chesapeake Bay to the southern point of the entrance to Potomac River; thence following the low-water line on the south bank of the Potoniac to the head of the north branch of that river, at a point known as Fairfax Stone, excepting the area of the District of Columbia.
