  • La Grange Pool - Illinois River 2021 Fisheries Fact Sheet

    La Grange Pool - Illinois River 2021 Fisheries Fact Sheet

    LA GRANGE POOL - ILLINOIS RIVER 2021 FISHERIES FACT SHEET The Illinois River is formed at the confluence of the Des Plaines and Kankakee rivers near Channahon in northeastern Illinois. It flows southwest for 273 miles across the state to enter the Mississippi River at Grafton. There are five dams along the Illinois forming pooled reaches named (upstream to downstream) the Dresden Pool, Marseilles Pool, Starved Rock Pool, Peoria Pool and La Grange Pool. The downstream reach is called the Alton Pool because it is influenced by Mel Price Lock and Dam on the Mississippi River at Alton. LOCATION: The La Grange Pool of the Illinois River extends from the La Grange Lock and Dam at mile 80.2 to the tailwater of the Peoria Lock and Dam at mile 157.7. Brown, Cass, Schuyler, Mason, Fulton, Tazewell and Peoria counties border this reach. RIVER ACCESS: The La Grange Pool is characterized by slow to moderate water velocities and soft substrates of sand and mud. The large number of backwater lakes and sloughs made this reach historically one of the most biologically productive river reaches in the world for waterfowl and fish. Backwaters managed for fishing by IDNR include state fish and wildlife areas at Anderson Lake, Spring Lake, Rice Lake, and Banner Marsh as well as the restored Thompson and Flag lakes at the Emiquon Preserve. Bath Chute, a river side channel, has excellent panfish and largemouth bass populations and is accessible by a public boat ramp in Bath. Boat access to the LaGrange Pool is also available at LaGrange Lock and Dam, Beardstown, Browning, Havana, Liverpool, Kingston Mines and Pekin.
  • Biological Opinion for the Operation and Maintenance of the 9-Foot Navigation Channel on the Upper Mississippi River System

    Biological Opinion for the Operation and Maintenance of the 9-Foot Navigation Channel on the Upper Mississippi River System

    BIOLOGICAL OPINION FOR THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE 9-FOOT NAVIGATION CHANNEL ON THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER SYSTEM SUMMARY OF FINDINGS In this Biological Opinion, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has determined that the continued operation and maintenance of the 9-foot Navigation Project will jeopardize the continued existence of the Higgins’ eye pearly mussel (Lampsilis higginsi) and the pallid sturgeon (Sacphirhynchus albus). We have also provided reasonable and prudent alternatives that will allow the continued operation and maintenance of the 9-foot Navigation Project while offsetting adverse impacts to the species and avoiding jeopardy. If the reasonable and prudent alternatives are not implemented, then the likelihood of survival and recovery of these species will be appreciably reduced. The Corps of Engineers (Corps) is required to notify the Service of its final decision on the implementation of the reasonable and prudent alternatives described herein. In addition, we have found that the project will not jeopardize the least tern (Sterna antillarum) and winged mapleleaf mussel (Quadrula fragosa) but will result in incidental take. We have provided an Incidental Take Statement with reasonable and prudent measures that will minimize the impacts of this take on these species. We also have determined that the proposed action will likely adversely affect the bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) and the Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis). However, while the project may affect individuals, the impacts will be offset by management actions proposed by the Corps or will be negligible, and will not rise to the level of incidental take (i.e., harm and harassment).
  • Illinois Waterway

    Illinois Waterway

    Illinois Waterway Locks & Dams Rock Island District 2018 US Army Corps of Engineers® Mississippi Valley Division The 9-foot Channel Navigation Project The Upper Mississippi River – Illinois Waterway System includes 37 locks and 1,200 miles of navigable waterway in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers manages the 37 locks and dams on the Mississippi and Illinois rivers providing a water stairway of travel for commercial and recreational traffic from Minneapolis-St. Paul to St. Louis and from Chicago to the Mississippi River. The 866 miles of the Upper Mississippi River begin in Minneapolis, Minn., and end at the confluence of the Ohio River at Cairo, Ill. The 333 miles of the Illinois Waterway start in the Chicago Area Waterway and continue downstream to the Illinois River’s confluence with the Mississippi River at Grafton, Ill. The Illinois Waterway is composed of seven water systems: Illinois River, Des Plaines River, Chicago Sanitary and Shipping Canal, South Branch Chicago River, Cal-Sag Channel, Little Calumet River and the Calumet River. There are more than 580 manufacturing facilities, terminals, grain elevators, and docks that ship and receive tonnage in the Upper Mississippi River basin. Grains (corn and soybeans) dominate traffic on the system. Other commodities, mainly cement and concrete products, comprise the second largest group. A modern 15-barge tow transports the equivalent of 1,050 large semi-trucks (26,250 cargo tons, 875,000 bushels, or 17,325,000 gallons). In 2015, the 9-foot channel project generated an estimated $3 billion of transportation cost savings compared to its approximately $246 million operation and maintenance cost.

    Orchard Beach – Bronx, Ny

    Peoria Lock & Dam (Creve Coeur, Illinois) Illinois River BUILDING STRONG ® U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS Construction: 1936-1939 Congressional District: IL-17 Description Peoria Lock and Dam is 157.7 miles above the confluence of the Illinois River with the Mississippi river at Grafton, Illinois. The lock and dam is located four miles downstream of Peoria, Ill. The lock is the standard 600-feet long by 110-feet wide. The maximum lift is 11 feet with an average lift of six feet. It takes ten minutes to fill or empty the lock chamber. The dam is a Chanoine wicket dam, the navigable pass type. Overall length of the dam is 570 feet. The movable dam is 432-feet long containing 108 wickets (3.75-feet wide, 16.42-feet high, 0.25-foot gap between wickets). The dam includes a single 84-foot- long submersible Tainter gate. From 1987-1990, a major rehabilitation changed the physical components of the dam and operating procedures by replacing 26 of the original 134 wickets with a single 84-foot long submersible Tainter gate adjacent to the lock wall. It takes two days for water to travel from Starved Rock Lock and Dam to Peoria. History/Significance The lock opened in 1939. Following the Supreme Court’s decree of April 21, 1930, limiting the diversion of water from Lake Michigan, a new navigation plan was developed calling for removing four old locks and dams at Henry, Copperas Creek, LaGrange and Kampsville; new locks at Peoria and LaGrange, and a dam on the Mississippi River at Alton, Missouri, to provide the required navigation depth from the mouth of the Illinois to LaGrange.
