Army Corps of Engineers Definition of “Water of the United States” Attention: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE). The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency provides the following comments and recommendations regarding the EPNCOE proposal to change the accepted and customary definition of “Waters of the United States” to remove Federal Clean Water Act (CWA) protection for isolated wetlands and non-navigable streams. Removal of CWA protection for isolated wetlands and non-navigable streams would drastically change more than three decades of progress toward restoring and protecting waters of the United States. This would be a significant retreat from the goals of the CWA and should be addressed through preparation of a comprehensive evaluation of the consequences. 0 Consideration should be given to amending the CWA to insure the definition of “Waters of the United States” is consistent with the customary and accepted usage of the term as The State of Tennessee AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER ,­ established since passage of the CWA. e Removal of federal CWS protection for isolated wetlands effectively abandons the long- standing national policy of “no overall net loss” of wetlands. The national goal of conservation and protection of wetlands resources is based on appreciation for the benefits derived, including water quality and quantity, flood control, waterfowl, and sustained biological diversity. e There is no database wherein the total surface acres of isolated wetlands in Tennessee are identified. Tennessee currently has approximately 787,000 acres of wetlands resources (based on a 1:100,000 scale). The majority of these wetlands are not adjacent to navigable streams. Tennessee estimates the majority of its naturally occurring wetlands were destroyed prior to the passage of the CWA. e The Tennessee Wetlands Conservation Strategy, Third Edition, 1998, as prepared by the Governor’s Interagency Wetlands Committee and Technical Work Group, is included for your consideration. Removal of CWA protection for isolated wetlands would seriously undermine state wetlands conservation initiatives. e Based on a conservative coverage scale of 1:500,000,Tennessee has approximately 22,405 miles of streams (Figure l), of which 12,785 stream miles (Figure 2) are non­ navigable (see List A). e The majority of Tennessee’s trout streams are non-navigable (see List B). e The vast majority of Tennessee’s aquatic biological diversity, including state and federally threatened and endangered species, occurs in non-navigable streams as traditionally protected by the CWA (See List C). e Absent the framework of protection afforded isolated wetlands and non-navigable streams by the CWA, it will become increasingly difficult for states to protect and :j P conserve these aquatic resources while competing for economic development. The impact of this change upon the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) should be thoroughly evaluated. Tennessee is recognized as having a diversity of fish and aquatic life unequalled in North America. Protection and conservation of clean water and aquatic resources is essential. We recognize that the U.S. Supreme Court Decision in Solid Waste Agency of Cook County v. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 531 U.S. 159 (2001), opens the door for EPA and COE to remove isolated wetlands and non-navigable streams from protection under the Federal Clean Water Act. It is clear, however, that such action would be taken by EPA, COE, and the administration only after having made a considered decision to abandon the spirit and intent of the CWA. We look forward to working with our partners in conservation to prepare a comprehensive analysis of the impact of redefining “Waters of the United States”. At a minimum, we advocate that isolated wetlands and non-navigable streams be afforded protection comparable to that traditionally afforded under the Federal Clean Water Act. If we may be of further assistance, please contact TWRA at (615) 781-6643. Sincerely, Gary T. Myers Executive Director ADM:bg Item 1. Aquatic Species and River Length of Non-Navigable Waters in Tennessee A list of non-navigable streams and a list of aquatic species sampled in the non-navigable streams were produced using TWRA’s Geographic Information System (GIS) Data and the Tennessee Aquatic Database System (TADS). A 1:500,000-scale stream cover of navigable waters was created from the List of Navigable Waters of the United States from the United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) from the Nashville and Memphis District. River segments designated from the List of Navigable Waters were selected from TWRA’s GIS 1:500,000 scale stream cover. Selecting river sections fi-om the TWRA stream cover that did not occur in the navigable waters created a non-navigable rivers CIS cover. The entire river coverage equaled 22,405 miles and the non-navigable river length equaled 12,787 miles. Fifty-seven percent of the rivers in Tennessee are considered non-navigable water. Because of the coarse scale of the stream coverage this is a conservative estimate of non-navigable waters. Overlaying the non-navigable streams cover with the TADS produced a list of aquatic species sampled in non-navigable streams. TADS is a geographically referenced database of fish inventory containing over 16,400 records of fish occurrences fi-om over 1400 sample sites across the state. Fish data is referenced by river reach and a point coverage generated by latitude and longitude. 196 sites were sampled in navigable waters and 1218 sites in non-navigable waters. Of the 230 fish species that were sampled fi-om the TADS sample sites, 74 fish species were sampled only in non-navigable waters. Trout are not included in the TADS database but have been sampled by TWRA fish biologists in 121 non-navigable streams. Of the 528 invertebrates sampled, 270 invertebrate species were sampled only in non-navigable waters. List A Non-Navigable Rivers in Tennessee ABRAMS CREEK BIG CREEK BRADSHAW CREE.

  • Endangered Species
    FEATURE: ENDANGERED SPECIES Conservation Status of Imperiled North American Freshwater and Diadromous Fishes ABSTRACT: This is the third compilation of imperiled (i.e., endangered, threatened, vulnerable) plus extinct freshwater and diadromous fishes of North America prepared by the American Fisheries Society’s Endangered Species Committee. Since the last revision in 1989, imperilment of inland fishes has increased substantially. This list includes 700 extant taxa representing 133 genera and 36 families, a 92% increase over the 364 listed in 1989. The increase reflects the addition of distinct populations, previously non-imperiled fishes, and recently described or discovered taxa. Approximately 39% of described fish species of the continent are imperiled. There are 230 vulnerable, 190 threatened, and 280 endangered extant taxa, and 61 taxa presumed extinct or extirpated from nature. Of those that were imperiled in 1989, most (89%) are the same or worse in conservation status; only 6% have improved in status, and 5% were delisted for various reasons. Habitat degradation and nonindigenous species are the main threats to at-risk fishes, many of which are restricted to small ranges. Documenting the diversity and status of rare fishes is a critical step in identifying and implementing appropriate actions necessary for their protection and management. Howard L.

  • A HISTORY of RAVENSWOOD Excerpt from the Bugle, a Publication of the Brentwood Historical Society August 2011 by Preston Bain
    A HISTORY OF RAVENSWOOD Excerpt from The Bugle, a publication of the Brentwood Historical Society August 2011 By Preston Bain Thomas Wilson immigrated to America from Ireland in the mid 1700’s and followed the migration trail down through Virginia and the Carolinas and finally over into Tennessee where he settled in the late 1700’s. His grandson, James Hazard Wilson II, who built Ravenswood was born in 1800 and would be one of several children by James Hazard Wilson, Sr. and Ruth Davidson Wilson. James II grew up in Williamson County and chose to remain here and start a family while his brother, Samuel, moved west to Texas and became one of the first Secretaries of State after it’s admission to the Union in 1845. In March of 1821, James Hazard Wilson II married his cousin Emeline Wilson. Prominent Tennessee and Texas historical figure Sam Houston served as the best man at his wedding. James and Emeline would settle in Brentwood and build their home in 1825. The home was christened Ravenswood in honor of their friend Sam Houston whose Cherokee Indian name was “the Raven”, most likely due to the jet black hair of his youth. Sam Houston ran away from home when he turned 16 and went to live with the Cherokee Indians near the Hiawassee River. The tribal chief became a father figure to Sam and gave him the Cherokee name Colonneh, meaning "the Raven”. Sam lived with the Cherokee for about 3 years before returning home to Maryville, TN and enlisting to fight in the War of 1812.
