The project has three primary objectives, which have been met. The objectives are: 1) Prepare an inventory of the Meramec River basin to provide background information about past and present conditions. 2) Facilitate the reduction of riparian wetland losses through identification of priority areas for protection and management. 3) Identify potential partners and programs to assist citizens in selecting approaches to the management of the Meramec River system. These objectives are dealt with in the following sections titled Inventory, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Analyses, and Action Plan. Inventory The Meramec River basin is located in east central Missouri in Crawford, Dent, Franklin, Iron, Jefferson, Phelps, Reynolds, St. Louis, Texas, and Washington counties.

To date, 10 mines have operated along a north‐south line extending for almost 100 kilometers (km) from from Viburnum to south of Bunker, Missouri. This subdistrict of the Southeast Missouri Lead Mining District is referred to as the Viburnum Trend (VT). Seven mines are presently in operation in the VT: (i) Viburnum #29 Mine in Washington County which uses the Buick Mill; (ii) Casteel or Viburnum #35 Mine in Iron County which uses the Buick and Brushy Creek Mills; (iii) Buick Mine and Mill in Iron and Reynolds Counties; (iv) Fletcher Mine and Mill in Reynolds County which sometimes uses the Brushy Creek Mill; (v) Brushy Creek mine and mill in Reynolds County; (vi) West Fork Mine and Mill in Reynolds County; and (vii) Sweetwater Mine and Mill in Reynolds County (Seeger, 2008).

In the next pages many rivers are described, both in general and by specific sections. You will also find within this section a compilation of many public outfitters, which regularly provide all necessary equipment for a canoe trip. The river sections that are profiled are probably not the exact sections of river that you will float if you rent your canoes and equipment form an outfitter. Each outfitter has “normal” floats that you may choose from, and few, if any, of these floats will match with the sections profiled in On The Loose, or with the sections any other outfitter would float! After spending some time with the River Section of On The Loose, I feel that you will agree there are many more rivers, which can be floated than the ones commonly mentioned (i.e.
