Laclede County and participating jurisdictions and school/special districts developed this multi-jurisdictional local hazard mitigation plan update to reduce future losses from hazard events to Laclede County and its communities and school/special districts. The plan is an update of a plan that was approved on July 11, 2014. The plan and the update were prepared pursuant to the requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 to result in eligibility for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant Programs. The County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan is a multi-jurisdictional plan that covers the following 8 jurisdictions that participated in the planning process: Unincorporated Laclede County City of Lebanon City of Richland Laclede County C-5 School District - Joel E. Barber Laclede County R-I School District Lebanon R-III School District Richland R-IV School District Stoutland R-II School District Local jurisdictions that were invited, but did not participate in the plan include: City of Conway City of Stoutland Village of Phillipsburg Bennett Springs Rural Fire Protection District Hazelgreen Rural Fire Protection District Lebanon Rural Fire Protection District Public Water District #1 Public Water District #2 Public Water District #3 Laclede County Road District Lebanon Special Road District Phillipsburg Special Road District Conway Special Road District Laclede County and the entities listed above developed a Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan that was approved by FEMA on July 11, 2014 (hereafter referred to as the 2014 Hazard Mitigation Plan). This current planning effort serves to update that previously approved plan. The plan update process followed a methodology prescribed by FEMA, which began with the iii formation of a Mitigation Planning Committee (MPC) comprised of representatives from Laclede County and participating jurisdictions. The MPC updated the risk assessment that identified and profiled hazards that pose a risk to Laclede County and analyzed jurisdictional vulnerability to these hazards. The MPC also examined the capabilities in place to mitigate the hazard damages, with emphasis on changes that have occurred since the previously approved plan was adopted. The MPC determined that the planning area is vulnerable to several hazards that are identified, profiled, and analyzed in this plan. Riverine and flash flooding, winter storms, severe thunderstorms/hail/lightning/high winds, and tornadoes are among the hazards that historically have had a significant impact. Based upon the risk assessment, the MPC reaffirmed goals for reducing risk from hazards. The goals are listed below: 1. Mitigate the effects of potential natural hazards in Laclede County to protect lives and assets 2. Reduce the potential impact of natural disasters to property, infrastructure, and the local economy through cost-effective and tangible mitigation projects whenever financially feasible 3. Encourage continuity of operations of government and emergency services in a disaster 4. Increase public awareness of natural hazards that have the potential to impact Laclede County To advance the identified goals, the MPC developed recommended mitigation actions, which are detailed in Chapter

  • Of the Niangua River Basin, Missouri
    Freshwater Mollusk Biology and Conservation 21:19–27, 2018 Ó Freshwater Mollusk Conservation Society 2018 REGULAR ARTICLE A SURVEY OF THE FRESHWATER MUSSELS (MOLLUSCA: BIVALVIA: UNIONIDA) OF THE NIANGUA RIVER BASIN, MISSOURI Stephen E. McMurray*, Joshua T. Hundley1, and J. Scott Faiman Missouri Department of Conservation, Central Regional Office and Conservation Research Center, Columbia, MO 65201 USA ABSTRACT During 2007 and 2008, we surveyed freshwater mussels with timed searches at 35 sites in the Niangua River basin, an Osage River tributary in west-central Missouri. Our objective was to determine the distribution, species richness, and abundance of freshwater mussels in the basin. We observed a total of 714 live individuals from 20 species, including the Missouri endemic and species of conservation concern Lampsilis brittsi. The mean catch per unit effort (live mussels/person-hour) was 12 with values ranging from 0 to 144. Eurynia dilatata was the most abundant species (387 individuals observed, relative abundance ¼ 54.2%), but all other species were present at much lower numbers. Eurynia dilatata and Venustaconcha ellipsiformis were the most commonly encountered species, both occurring at 24 sites. Our observation of 20 species is lower than historical richness in the basin (32 species), and nearly all species were formerly more widely distributed in the basin based on the occurrence of weathered and subfossil shells. Together with low catch per unit effort at most sites, these data suggest a sharp decline in mussel populations throughout the basin over the last few decades. This decline is cause for concern, but the causes are unknown. KEY WORDS: freshwater mussel, Unionida, survey, Missouri INTRODUCTION endangered species (Epioblasma triquetra), are reported The freshwater mussel fauna of Missouri is diverse but historically from the Niangua River basin (Table 1).

In the next pages many rivers are described, both in general and by specific sections. You will also find within this section a compilation of many public outfitters, which regularly provide all necessary equipment for a canoe trip. The river sections that are profiled are probably not the exact sections of river that you will float if you rent your canoes and equipment form an outfitter. Each outfitter has “normal” floats that you may choose from, and few, if any, of these floats will match with the sections profiled in On The Loose, or with the sections any other outfitter would float! After spending some time with the River Section of On The Loose, I feel that you will agree there are many more rivers, which can be floated than the ones commonly mentioned (i.e.
