About the Project Minnesota Power and Dairyland Power Cooperative are proposing to build a 525-550 megawatt natural gas generation facility in Superior, Wisconsin, called the Nemadji Trail Energy Center. This center will use flexible and efficient natural gas to enable the addition of more renewable energy resources such as wind and solar, and to deliver affordable and reliable power to consumers in the region. The Facility This project will be a combined-cycle gas generation facility that burns natural gas in a combustion turbine. 2 HOW IT WORKS Natural Gas Fuel Supply Natural gas is burned to produce high-pressure, 1 high-temperature gas that spins a turbine. 1 Steam Turbine Equipment in this building captures waste heat to Gas Turbine 2 create steam that spins a second turbine. Energy from the turbines flows to a transformer 3 and continues through the electric grid to power Transformer homes and businesses. 3 Nemadji Trail Energy Center Facility Location The proposed project is located in an industrial area and has access to existing electrical and natural gas infrastructure. The project will require these additional components: Approximately seven-mile natural gas pipeline using existing right-of-way 2 N 42nd St Approximately four-mile, 345kV transmission line parallel to existing right-of-way Z Approximately 10-acre substation associated with the transmission line Legend The Wisconsin permitting process requires two Preferred Facility Site proposed alternatives; however, only one facility site, Alternate Facility Site transmission line route, and substation location are Existing Pipeline Right-of-Way preferred by Minnesota Power and Dairyland Power - Preferred Transmission Route & Substation C as shown on the map.

Verry and Kenneth N. Brooks. 2002. Land use impacts on fluvial processes in the Nemadji River watershed. Hydrological Science and Technology, 18 (1-4): 197-205. ABSTRACT The Nemadji River drains 1100 km2 of eastern Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin. Channel incision and mass wasting are natural responses to glacial rebound in this area and account for more than 95% of the annual sediment load. However, the clay and sand delivered by the Nemadji to Lake Superior has increased over the past 150 years. We researched land use history across the upper 520 km2 of the Nemadji River Watershed, surveyed channel characteristics, identified relic channels and employed dendrochronology to date floodplains and terraces. Results indicate that two episodes of channel incision began propagating through the Nemadji River and its tributaries. One associated with timber harvesting in the mid 1800’s and another associated a large fire in 1894. Streams impacted by incision had increased slope, reduced sinuosity, increased entrenchment, and reduced width depth ratios. Subsequent erosion from steep banks, mass wasting, and upstream incision provides sediment and space needed for the reconstruction of stable channels. The new channels are similar to the relic channels and un- impacted streams.

The river flows 179 miles through three distinct areas: coarse soils, glacial till and outwash deposits at its headwaters; a deep, narrow gorge at Jay Cooke State Park in Minnesota; and red clay deposits in its lower reaches. As the St. Louis River approaches Duluth and Superior, the river takes on the characteristics of a 12,000 Contents acre freshwater estuary.

  • Posted Boundaries and Fish Sanctuaries on Lake Superior Tributaries
    Division of Fish and Wildlife Section of Fisheries May 2020 Posted Boundaries and Fish Sanctuaries on Lake Superior Tributaries The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources-Section of Fisheries has established regulations and fish sanctuaries on Lake Superior tributaries to protect migratory fish species from Lake Superior, particularly native coaster Brook Trout, and also to extend fishing seasons for other species. Fish sanctuaries have permanent or seasonal closures (Minnesota administrative rule 6264.0500) to protect fish in vulnerable locations during spawning seasons and to restrict fishing near dams, fish traps and egg collection stations. Fish sanctuaries are marked by signs hung by cables, attached to natural features or on posts. Posted boundaries for areas covered by Lake Superior and below-boundary tributary regulations are marked by yellow signs posted near the stream at the upstream end of the boundary. Posted boundaries specify the location on a stream where fishing regulations change and generally correspond to areas accessible to fish migrating upstream from Lake Superior. When a stream has no impassible barrier, such as a waterfall, the posted boundary is marked at a road crossing or other landmark. Streams with a posted boundary at the stream mouth or Minnesota/Wisconsin state line will not have a physical sign posted. Regulations for below posted boundary areas are: Most people fishing Lake Superior or its tributaries will need a trout/salmon stamp validation in addition to a Minnesota angling license (see MNDNR fishing regulations). Many special possession limits and size restrictions apply for trout and salmon caught below the posted boundaries (see MNDNR fishing regulations).

    _.,., n ....... , 7 ,...,,..., Agency Great Lakes National Program Office &EPA Final Report on the Red Clay Project -Summary Report Preface The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was created because of increasing public and governmental concern about the dangers of pollution to the health and welfare of the American people. Noxious air, foul water, and spoiled land are tragic testimony to the deterioration of our natural environment. The Great Lakes National Program Office (GLNPO) of the U.S. EPA was established in Region V, Chicago, to provide specific focus on the water quality concerns of the Great Lakes. The Section 108(a) Demonstration Grant Program of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500) is specific to the Great Lakes drainage basin and thus is administered by the Great Lakes National Program Office. Several sediment erosion-<:ontrol projects within the Great Lakes drainage basin have been funded as a result of Section 108(a). This report describes one such project supported by this office to carry out our responsibility to improve water quality in the Great Lakes. We hope the information and data contained herein will help planners and managers of pollution control agencies to make better decisions in carrying forward their pollution control responsibilities.
