    Appendices to the Year 2000 Ohio Water Resource Inventory Bob Taft Governor, State of Ohio Christopher Jones Director, Ohio Environmental Protection Agency P.O. Box 1049 Lazarus Government Center, 122 S. Front Street Columbus, Ohio 43216-1049 Sept 11, 2000 Appendix A. OHIOSPORTFISH CONSUMPTIONADVISORY OHIODEPARTMENTOFHEALTHYEAR2000 FISHINGSEASON What Health Benefits do I get From Eating Sport Fish? Fish are nutritious and good to eat. Many doctors suggest that eating one half-pound of fish each week helps to prevent heart disease. Almost any kind of fish may have real health benefits when it replaces a high-fat source of protein in the diet. Fish eaten often provide valuable vitamins and minerals, high-quality protein, and beneficial oils that are low in saturated fat. Why is a Fish Consumption Advisory Needed? While most Ohio sport fish are of high quality, low levels of chemicals like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), mercury, and lead have been found in some fish from certain waters. To ensure the continued good health of Ohioans, the Ohio Department of Health offers an advisory for how often these fish can be safely eaten. An advisory is advice, and should not be viewed as law or regulation. It is intended to help anglers and their families make educated choices about: Where you fish, what types of fish you eat, how to limit the amount and frequency of fish you consume, and how you prepare fish for cooking. By following these advisories, you can get the health benefits of fish and reduce unwanted contaminants. What Groups are Most Sensitive to Contaminatants? Contaminants in fish can be harmful to people of all ages, but the fetus and young children are especially sensitive to contaminants because their organs and systems are not yet fully developed.

  • Your Guide to Mohican Country Geographic References –
    YOUR GUIDE TO MOHICAN COUNTRY GEOGRAPHIC REFERENCES By IRV OSLIN Black Fork of the Mohican River — Originates near Shelby, flowing through Richland and Ashland counties. It is impounded by Charles Mill Dam. Downstream of the dam, Black Fork flows under Ohio 603 and Ohio 39, through Perrysville and Loudonville (including the liveries south of the village Ohio 3). The Native American village of Greentown was located on the stretch between Rocky Fork and Perrysville, downstream of County Road 1075. Rocky Fork of the Mohican River flows into Black Fork downstream from Charles Mill Dam. Rocky Fork flows down from Mansfield. Rocky Fork flows under Ohio 603 between Ohio 95 and Ohio 39. Charles Mill Dam — Impounds Black Fork of the Mohican River south of Mifflin. Charles Mill Lake — Not to be confused with Charles Mill Dam. The lake is the body of water behind the dam. Note, Charles Mill Lake and Charles Mill Lake Park are managed by the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District. The dam is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It is NOT Charles Mill Reservoir, as some call it. Charles Mill Lake Park — A Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District-run park on the shores of Charles Mill Lake.

  • The Walhonding Valley Late Prehistoric Sites Project: the Analysis of Flotation Samples from the Crawford and Tri-Mac/Olinger Sites in Coshocton County, Ohio
    Current Research in Ohio Archaeology 2014 Nigel Brush and P. Nick Kardulias www.ohioarchaeology.org The Walhonding Valley Late Prehistoric Sites Project: The Analysis of Flotation Samples from the Crawford and Tri-Mac/Olinger Sites in Coshocton County, Ohio Nigel Brush, Ashland University and P. Nick Kardulias, College of Wooster Introduction The Walhonding River is formed by the junction of the Kokosing River and the Mohican River near the village of Walhonding in west central Coshocton County, Ohio. After flowing some 18 miles to the east, the Walhonding River merges with the Tuscarawas River to form the Muskingum River near the center of the county at the town of Coshocton. Along the hillsides above the Walhonding River are extensive outcrops of Upper Mercer Flint that reach a maximum thickness of 17 feet near the Village of Nellie. These flint outcrops were heavily utilized by native peoples for tool and weapon production throughout the prehistoric period, and the terraces along the valley are littered with the remains of workshops, camp sites, and villages. Walhonding Valley Late Prehistoric Sites Project Fieldwork in the Walhonding Valley was begun in 1990 by Jim Morton and Nigel Brush. By 2006 this work had grown into the Walhonding Valley Late Prehistoric Sites Project. The purpose of this project is to examine how native peoples living in the Walhonding Valley adapted to three periods of short-term climate change that occurred during a one-thousand-year period from A.D. 700 to 1700: the Dark Age Cold Period (A.D. 400 to 900), the Medieval Warm Period (A.D.

    WATER RESOURCES RESEARCH, VOL. 26, NO.5, PAGES 1093-1098, MAY 1990 Evaluating Dam Safety Retrofits With Uncertain Benefits: The Case of Mohawk Dam (Walhonding River, Ohio) DANIEL RESENDIZ-CARRILLO Department ofEngineering and Public Policy, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania LESTER B. LAVE Graduate School ofIndustrial Administration and Department ofEngineering and Public Policy Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Mohawk Dam, part of the Muskingum basin flood control system, was built in 1938 and is operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps). Since this high-hazard dam could not survive a probable maximum flood (PMF), the Corps conducted a study to determine the least expensive means ofenabling the dam to survive a PMF. Applying a previously proposed framework to select the social cost minimizing capacity ofa dam, we show that Mohawk Darn had sufficient capacity that any retrofit has a social cost larger than expected benefits. Sensitivity analyses were performed adjusting the peak flow distribution, the costs of modification, and downstream flood damage, as well as the possibility of loss of life. For any reasonable value of these variables the conclusion does not change that the structure already met so high a safety goal regarding extreme floods that no retrofit is needed. Using risk-based methods to perform reservoir safety evaluations, as recommended by a National Research Council committee in 1985, is indeed feasible. Furthermore, their use provides valuable insight and guidance into the selection of strategies to enhance the safety of dams. We have previously proposed a framework to evaluate the 1 (EVTl). The estimated return periods for various peak implications of the current safety goal that high-hazard dams flows (and the corresponding standard errors) for the four must survive a probable maximum flood (PMF) [Resendiz­ fitted distributions are shown in Table 1.
