Appendix I Five County National Inventory of Dams Information Ap Appendix I ‐ National Inventory of Dams Information Franklin County Jefferson County St. Charles County St. Louis County and City of St. Louis (There are no dams in the City of St. Louis) The National Inventory of Dams (NID) is maintained and published by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in cooperation with the Association of State Dam Safety Officials (ASDSO), the states and territories, and federal dam‐regulating agencies. Information has been assembled on dams more than 25 feet high, holding more than 50 acre‐feet of water or are considered a significant hazard if they fail. The NID contains information about the location of the dam, size, purpose, construction type, last inspection and other technical data. This database was last updated in 2013. Hazard Potential Classification High Hazard Potential ‐ Dams assigned to this classification are those whose failure or mis‐operation will probability cause loss of human life. Significant Hazard Potential ‐ Dams assigned to the Significant Hazard Potential classification are those where failure or mis‐operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental change, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Low Hazard Potential ‐ Dams assigned to this classification are those where failure or mis‐operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property. NID Franklin County Other Hazard Inspection Owner NID Storage Primary All Dam Name Dam Name Potential Date Type Height (Ft.)

Box 248 Sullivan, MO 63080 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Project Overview The overall purpose of the Meramec River Watershed Demonstration Project is to bring together relevant information about the Meramec River basin and evaluate the status of the stream, watershed, and wetland resource base. 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. Found in the northeast corner of the Ozark Highlands, the Meramec River and its tributaries drain 2,149 square miles.

  • The Pre-Impoundment Fish Fauna of Big River (Meramec Drainage, Missouri)
    1978] Mills, Hocutt, & Stauffer, Biological Sciences 25 THE PRE-IMPOUNDMENT FISH FAUNA OF BIG RIVER (MERAMEC DRAINAGE, MISSOURI) Paul A. Mills, Jr. Museum of Nat. His., Univ. Kansas, Lawrence, Ks. 66045, and Charles H. Hocutt and Jay R. Stauffer, Jr. Appalachian Environ. Lab., Univ. Maryland, Frostburg, Md. 21532 ABSTRACT: Eighty two species of fishes were collected from 37 localities on Big River (principal tributary of the Meramec River, East-central Missouri) from 1974-1976. Of these, 14 were newly reported from the system, and 5 others had not been collected since before 1945.The fauna is essentially "Ozarkian" and is divided into those species which are primarily headwaters and tributary inhabitants, those generally restricted to the lower river, and those widely distributed. In conjunction with literature records, we document the presence of 90 species of fishes in Big River and discuss some possible effects of the two proposed impoundments on the composition and distribution of the fauna. Introduction. The Meramec River system of east-central Missouri lies within that portion of the state known as the Ozark uplands. It is composed of two principal tributaries in addition to the mainstream and drains all or parts of 11 counties. Big River, the larger of these two tributaries, originates in northern Iron County south of Belgrade and enters the Meramec from the south near Eureka. The headwaters of Big River drain a portion of the St. Francis Mountain region, an area composed largely of igneous rocks of Cambrian and Pre-Cambrian age. The majority of its watershed, however, lies within the Salem Plateau province where sedimentary limestones and dolomites of Ordovician age and younger predominate (Thornbury 1965: 265-268).
