    United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Tulsa District Oklahoma Resource Area September 1991 KANSAS RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN Dear Reader: This doCument contains the combined Kansas Record of Decision (ROD) and Resource Management Plan (RMP). The ROD and RMP are combined to streamline our mandated land-use-planning requirements and to provide the reader with a useable finished product. The ROD records the decisions of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for administration of approximately 744,000 acres of Federal mineral estate within the Kansas Planning Area. The Planning Area encompasses BLM adm in i sterad sp 1 it-estate mi nera 1 s and Federa 1 minerals under Federal surface administered by other Federal Agencies within the State of Kansas. The Kansas RMP and appendices provide direction and guidance to BLM Managers in the formulation of decisions effecting the management of Federal mineral estate within the planning area for the next 15 years. The Kansas RMP was extracted from the Proposed Kansas RMP/FIES. The issuance of this ROD and RMP completes the BLM land use planning process for the State of Kansas. We now move to implementation of the plan. We wish to thank all the individuals and groups who participated in this effort these past two years, without their help we could not have completed this process. er~ 1_' Area Manager Oklahoma Resource Area RECORD OF DECISION on the Proposed Kansas Resource Management Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement September 1991 RECORD OF DECISION The decision is hereby made to approve the proposed decision as described in the Proposed Kansas Resource Management Plan/Final Env ironmental Impact Statement (RMP/FEIS July 1991), MANAGEMENT CONSZOERATXONS The decision to approve the Proposed Plan is based on: (1) the input received from the public, other Federal and state agencies; (2) the environmental analysis for the alternatives considered in the Draft RMP/Oraft EIS, as we11 as the Proposed Kansas RMP/FEIS.

    Investigating Potential Wetland Development in Aging Kansas Reservoirs. Kansas Biological Survey Report No. 191 August 2017 by Kaitlyn Loeffler Central Plains Center for BioAssessment Kansas Biological Survey University of Kansas For Kansas Water Office Prepared in fulfillment of KWO Contract 16-111, EPA Grant No. CD 97751901 KUCR KAN74759 Investigating Potential Wetland Development in Aging Kansas Reservoirs By © 2017 Kaitlyn Loeffler B.S., Central Methodist University, 2015 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental Science. Chair: Dr. Josh Roundy Co-Chair: Dr. Vahid Rahmani Dr. Don Huggins Dr. Ted Peltier Date Defended: August 15, 2017 The thesis committee for Kaitlyn Loeffler certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Investigating Potential Wetland Development in Aging Kansas Reservoirs Chair: Dr. Josh Roundy Co-Chair: Dr. Vahid Rahmani Date Approved: August 2017 ii Abstract Reservoirs around the world are losing their storage capacity due to sediment infilling; and with this infilling, the quality or value of some reservoir uses such as boating, fishing and recreation are diminishing. However, the sediment accumulating in the upper ends of reservoirs, particularly around primary inflows with well-defined floodplains, could potentially be developing into wetland ecosystems that provide services such as sediment filtration, nutrient sequestration, and habitat for migratory birds and other biota. The objectives of this study are as follows: 1) use water level management data and topography to delineate the primary zone of potential wetland formation around the reservoir perimeter, 2) examine the relationship between ground slope in this area and wetland delineations found in the U.S.

  • Kansas Lake and Wetland Monitoring Program 2016 Annual Report
    KANSAS LAKE AND WETLAND MONITORING PROGRAM 2016 ANNUAL REPORT Division of Environment Bureau of Water Watershed Planning, Monitoring, and Assessment Section 1000 SW Jackson Street, Suite 420 Topeka, KS 66612 By G. Layne Knight December 15, 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) Lake and Wetland Monitoring Program surveyed the water quality conditions of 40 Kansas lakes and wetlands during 2016. Eight of the sampled waterbodies are large federal impoundments, ten are State Fishing Lakes (SFLs), eighteen are city and county lakes, three are federal wetland areas, and one is a state wetland area. In addition, a single sample was taken from Big Spring; a prominent water resource at Scott State Park. Of the 33 lakes and wetlands analyzed for chlorophyll concentrations, 74% exhibited trophic state conditions comparable to their previous period-of-record water quality conditions. Another 13% exhibited improved water quality conditions, compared to their previous period-of-record, as evidenced by a lowered lake trophic state. The remaining 13% exhibited degraded water quality, as evidenced by elevated lake trophic state conditions. Phosphorus was identified as the primary factor limiting phytoplankton growth in 50% of the lakes surveyed during 2016, nitrogen was identified as the primary limiting factor in about 20% of the lakes and wetlands, while five lakes (15%) were identified as primarily light limited due to higher inorganic turbidity. Two lakes were determined to be limited by hydrologic conditions and one lake had algal limitation due to extreme macrophyte densities. Limiting factors were unable to be determined for the remaining two lakes.
