Kansas Aquatic Nuisance Species Designated Waters Kansas Aquatic Nuisance Species Designated Waters June 6, 2018 It is illegal to transport live fish from Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) Designated Waters. To help prevent the spread of aquatic hitchhikers from these and other waters, always follow Clean – Drain – Dry procedures, do not move fish between waters or upstream, and remove plants and debris from equipment before leaving a water area.

    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.

  • Twin Mound, Douglas County, Kansas 1857-1903
    The Near Miss: Twin Mound, Douglas County, Kansas 1857-1903 McKenzie Combes Chapman Center for Rural Studies History 589 Fall 2016 This is a brief history of Twin Mound in Douglas County, Kansas. It focuses on the life and near misses of the community from 1857 to the post office closing in 1903. This history utilizes newspaper articles, plat maps, and site research and photographs. 1 Imagine travelling for weeks by wagon with nothing but essential items and family and for most of the journey, seeing nothing but the desolate open plains of Kansas for miles. The sun is blazing in the hot summer months and the heat is unbearable. Eventually, the landscape changes to small gently rolling hills and in the distance you can see two large identical mounds, each easily a quarter mile long. This fertile land nestled between two creeks is the perfect place to stop and rest. This land is known to history as Twin Mound, Kansas. Twin Mound was a small community located in Douglas County in northeastern Kansas. The town site was triangulated between present-day Topeka, Lawrence, and Emporia, Kansas. This community was subject to several near misses for permanence, everything from the railroad to a university. Twin Mound had great potential but was blindsided by missed opportunities that ultimately led to the demise of such a promising town. Founding and Early Years Within the gently rolling hills and flat fertile land that made up the Kansas Territory before 1861 were two mounds, of identical shape and size that characterized the area; one is pictured below in Figure 1.

  • Natural and Cultural Resources Natural and Cultural Resources Form the Base of Everything in Shawnee County
    CHAPTER TWO Natural and Cultural Resources Natural and cultural resources form the base of everything in Shawnee County. Not only does agriculture play a significant role in the area’s economy, but the landscape also creates opportunities and constraints to development. This comprehensive plan brings together water management, conservation, land use planning, and industries like agriculture and mining to identify the best ways to continue a high quality of life. It also demonstrates how people rely on the health and productivity of the landscape and how land stewardship is critical in maintaining its health and productivity. Wisely managing these resources allows the County to build for present and future generations and mitigate natural hazards which saves lives, property, and money. DRAFT 09-01-2017 PERCEPTIONS FIGURE 2.1: Questionnaire Responses: Natural Resources (1 being Poor and 5 being Excellent) Survey participants completed a “report card” SURVEY RESPONSE RATINGS AVERAGE RATING questionnaire in which they were asked to rank Lake Shawnee 4.01 various natural and cultural resources issues and opportunities on a one-to-five scale, with five Clinton Lake Wildlife Refuge 3.44 representing “excellent” and one representing “poor.” Regional Parks and Recreation Areas 3.37 Attributes with average scores of 3.0 or above are Preservation of Natural Features (Flint Hills, Glacial Hills, and Osage Cuestas) 3.17 perceived strengths and those with scores below Overall Quality of Shawnee County's Environment 3.07 2.5 represent areas of perceived weaknesses.

  • Notes on the Birds of Douglas County, Kansas
    Birds of Douglas County, Kansas 91 NOTES ON THE BIRDS OF DOUGLAS COUNTY, KANSAS BY JEAN LINSDALE AND E. RAYMOND HALL The aim of this paper is to place on record our observations that, excepting those obtainable from specimens collected, might otherwise not be available. The paper deals chiefly with occurrence and is wholly limited to birds collected and observed by us in Douglas County, Kansas, mainly, between September, 1919, and May, 1923. A few observations made after this time are included but all such are indicated by date. A total of 253 field-trips was made. These cover 231 separate days. Records were also kept of birds seen about the authors’ homes in Lawrence. Nearly all of the northern part of the country was worked. Most work was done in spring and fall and least in summer. Of the 201 identifications 164 are based on speci- men3 collected. All these specimens, numbering more than one thou- sand, are now in the collection of the University of Kansas Museum of Natural History at Lawrence. The city of Lawrence is located in the north-central part of Douglas County on the Kansas River. Most of the work here reported on was done south, east and west of, and within ten miles of, Lawrence. The Kansas River, whose valley is three to six miles wide, forms most of the northern boundary of the county and is joined, eight miles south of Lawrence, by the Wakarusa River. The latter is a smaller stream that passes three miles south of Lawrence and runs east by- north.

INTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION Subbasin: Lower Kansas River Counties: Douglas, Osage, Shawnee, and Wabaunsee HUC 8: 10270104 HUC 11: 010 (entire watershed) Drainage Area: Approximately 364 square miles. Main Stem Segments: 30 and 31, starting at Clinton Lake with headwaters in eastern Wabaunsee County near Eskridge. Designated Uses: Expected Aquatic Life Support, Primary Contact Recreation and all other designated uses. 1998 303d Listing: Table 2–Stream Segments Identified by Biological Monitoring Impaired Use: Expected Aquatic Life Support on Segments 30 & 31 Water Quality Standard: Suspended solids--Narrative: Suspended solids added to surface waters by artificial sources shall not interfere with the behavior, reproduction, physical habitat or other factor related to the survival and propagation of aquatic or semi-aquatic or terrestrial wildlife. (KAR 28-16-28e(c)(2)(D)). 2. CURRENT WATER QUALITY CONDITION AND DESIRED ENDPOINT Level of Support for Designated Use under 303d: Partially Supporting Aquatic Life Monitoring Sites: Station 109 near Topeka Period of Record Used: Stream Chemistry: 1985–1998 Biological Monitoring: 1982–1996 Current Condition: Percent EPT taxa and total suspended solid concentrations need to be analyzed to address the sediment/biological impact impairment. The MBI index may also be examined; however it is not as good of an indicator as percent EPT taxa. The EPT index is the proportion of aquatic taxa present 1 within a stream belonging to pollution intolerant orders; Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (mayflies, stoneflies and caddisflies). Higher percentages of total taxa comprising these three groups indicate less pollutant stress and better water quality.
