  • Lake Wylie Marine Commission Hydrilla Management Plan
    Management Plan for the Lake Wylie Marine Commission Prepared by James P. Kirk, Ph. D. US Army Engineer Waterways Experimental Station Environmental Lab, Engineer Research and Development Center 3909 Halls Ferry Road, Vicksburg, MS 39180-6199 Introduction This plan is prepared for the Lake Wylie Marine Commission and recommends management of a newly discovered hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata ) infestation using triploid (sterile) grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) as the primary management tool. The Plan follows a general approach used to manage hydrilla in other Catawba River reservoirs (Mountain Island Lake as well as Lakes Norman and James). The premise of this approach is that early use of a combination of herbicides for suppression followed by stocking appropriate densities of triploid grass carp will eliminate hydrilla stands before this plant can expand to catastrophic levels - which has occurred in reservoirs utilizing primarily herbicides for control. Because the grass carp prefers hydrilla, maintenance stockings will be continued for the indefinite future to prevent hydrilla from reestablishing. This Plan will be carefully coordinated with state natural resource agencies and stakeholders. Native fish and triploid grass carp populations will be monitored to ensure the environmental sustainability of this approach. The Plan reviews the history, biology, and use of triploid grass carp. The strengths, weaknesses, and tradeoffs of this method of control are discussed using a review of the scientific literature. Management recommendations using triploid grass carp in Lake Wylie are then presented. Because healthy triploid grass carp of proper size are critical to success (Kirk 1992), a contract developed by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources is included as a go-by.

  • Lake Wylie / Beaverdam Creek
    LAKE WYLIE / BEAVERDAM DID YOU KNOW? Two-thirds of Mecklenburg County is in the Catawba River watershed, and the creeks in that watershed flow into Lake Norman, Mountain Island Lake, Lake Wylie or other parts of the Catawba River. The eastern third of Mecklenburg County is in the Yadkin-Pee Dee watershed. Those creeks eventually flow into the Pee Dee CREEK River. Mecklenburg County has 126 named creeks. This includes creeks whose name is “tributary of.” Of those 126 named creeks, 81 have their own names (not “tributary of”). Six creeks in Mecklenburg have a name that starts “Mc…” They are McAlpine, McCullough, McDowell, McIntyre, McKee and McMullen creeks. Their names reflect the Scots-Irish heritage of many of the early white settlers. A nationwide survey of the condition of small streams throughout the U.S. in 2004-05 found 42 percent of the stream miles were in poor biological condition and 28 percent in good condition. In the Eastern region that includes Charlotte, only 18 percent of the stream miles were in good biological condition, and 52 percent were in poor condition. The most widespread problems for streams across the U.S. are nitrogen and phosphorus (called “nutrients”), sediments in the streambed, and activities that disturb the stream’s banks such as construction, farming or removing vegetation. Although they are “nutrients” – meaning they supply nutrition – high levels of nitrogen and phosphorus can hurt water quality. They can cause too much algae to grow, which uses so much oxygen that other aquatic life suffers. The Lake Wylie- watershed is the Samuel Neel under water after the Wylie Dam was Algae blooms can also produce toxins that harm humans Beaverdam Creek House, a historic property built on the river, including the county’s and animals.

  • Environmental Report for Catawba
    Applicant’s Environmental Report Operating License Renewal Stage Catawba Nuclear Station This page intentionally left blank. Catawba Nuclear Station Applicant’s Environmental Report Operating License Renewal Stage Introduction Introduction Duke Energy Corporation (Duke) submits this Environmental Report (ER) as part of Duke’s application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to renew the operating licenses for Units 1 and 2 of the Catawba Nuclear Station (Catawba). The Duke application is a combined application to renew the licenses for McGuire Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2, and Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 for twenty years beyond the end of the current licenses. In compliance with applicable NRC requirements, this ER analyzes potential environmental impacts associated with renewal of the Catawba licenses. A separate ER is submitted as part of the application to analyze potential environmental impacts associated with the renewal of the McGuire licenses. This ER is designed to assist the NRC Staff in preparing the Catawba-specific Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement required for license renewal. The Catawba ER complies with 10 CFR § 54.23, which requires license renewal applicants to submit a supplement to the Environmental Report which complies with requirements of Subpart A of 10 CFR Part 51. This Report also addresses the more detailed requirements of NRC environmental regulations in 10 CFR §§ 51.45 and 51.53, as well as the underlying intent of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. § 4321 et seq. For major federal actions, NEPA requires preparation of a detailed statement that addresses their significant environmental impacts, adverse environmental effects that cannot be avoided should the proposal be implemented, alternatives to the proposed action, and any irreversible and irretrievable commitments of resources associated with implementation of the proposed action.
