  • River Raisin Assessment
    River Raisin Assessment EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This is one of a series of river assessments to be prepared by the Fisheries Division of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) for Michigan rivers. This report describes the characteristics of the River Raisin and its biological communities. River assessments are prepared to provide a comprehensive reference for citizens and agency personnel who desire information about a particular fisheries resource. These assessments will provide an approach to identifying opportunities and solving problems related to aquatic resources in watersheds. It is hoped that this river assessment will increase public awareness of the River Raisin and its challenges and serve to promote a sense of public stewardship and advocacy for the resources of the watershed. The ultimate goal is to increase public involvement in the decision making process to benefit the river and its resources. This document consists of four parts: an introduction, a river assessment, management options, and public comments and responses. The river assessment is the nucleus of the report. The characteristics of the River Raisin and its watershed are described in twelve sections: geography, history, geology and hydrology, channel morphology, soil and land use patterns, biological communities, special jurisdictions, recreational use, dams and barriers, water quality, fishery management, and citizen involvement. The management options section of the report identifies a variety of challenges and opportunities. These management options are categorized and presented following the organization of the main sections of the river assessment. It must be stressed that the options listed are not necessarily recommended by MDNR, Fisheries Division. They are intended to provide groundwork for public discussion and comment.

Elm and Detroit avenues. That location is where the greenways path connects the City of Monroe to the River Raisin National Battlefield Park and Sterling State Park, one of the busiest in Michigan. The trail also snakes by the Ford Marsh within the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge, connects to Downtown Monroe and will eventually link to Monroe County Community College. The ceremony, which was free and open to the public, included a keynote address by U.S. Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.); comments by featured guest Jeff Corwin, host of Animal Planet’s “The Jeff Corwin Experience” and wildlife and science expert for NBC/MSNBC; a ribbon cutting; a living history encampment; and the unveiling of a new River Raisin Heritage Trail entrance sign designed and constructed by local volunteers. (more) “This trail connects a unique collection of sites, from a key battlefield in our nation’s second war for independence to the shore of a Great Lake,” Sen. Levin said. “It links Michigan’s history to its natural beauty and highlights how the intersection of land and water has shaped our state.
