| 1169: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2009 November 3 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Otter Lake has experienced significant amounts of sediment accumulation and degrading of its shoreline. This situation has contributed to increased levels of phosphorus and manganese. Phosphorus is a nutrient source for algae. Otter Lake has seen high counts of blue green algae in recent years. Further testing for 2 methylisoborneal (MIB) and geosmin were conducted confirming high counts of these taste and odor causing compounds. The presence of these compounds have increased both treatment expense and customer complaints. Reduction of phosphorus from nonpoint source pollution should reduce algae blooms on the lake. This project is one of many efforts being undertaken by the Water Commission to reduce nonpoint source pollution and in turn improve the finished water quality to the towns it serves. | | | | Date Created: | 12 17 2009 | | | | Agency ID: | Financial Assistance Agreement 3190709 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041171 Original UID: 21127 FIRST WORD: Otter | |

| 1171: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2008 July 31 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | This report brings uptodate the original La Moine River Watershed Plan, 2006, which addressed local stakeholder concerns related to water quality, erosion, wildlife habitat and education. Available and accessible data were analyzed to determine priority subwatersheds based on project goal areas. Subsequently, potential Best Management Practices (BMPs) were identified using aerial photo interpretation, and expected load reductions were calculated. Although information provided in the watershed plan was extensive, data gaps did exist. Missing information included the extent and severity of gully and streambank erosion and the location andimpact of livestoperationsVerification of BMPs outlined the plan was also needed. An IEPA 319 grant was pursued funding was acquired to address these data gaps and conduct sampling in priority subwatersheds. The report outlines methodologies and results from the assessment work. | | | | Date Created: | 09 30 2008 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041173 Original UID: 21128 FIRST WORD: Up | |

The diagnostic study was designed to characterize existing lake conditions, examine the extent and causes of use impairment, and provide the basis for selection of restoration and management techniques The project was funded (60 percent) by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) through the Illinois Clean Lakes Program under Conservation 2000 with cost sharing by the City of Mattoon. The Illinois EPA was responsible for grant administration and program management. The Diagnostic-Feasibility Study was conducted by Crawford, Murphy and Tilly, Inc. (CMT), the Watershed Science Section of the Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS), and Goodpaster and Associates, Inc. (GAI). | | | | Date Created: | 05 21 2004 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041174 Original UID: 21129 FIRST WORD: Phase | |

Implementing a watershed plan in conjunction with lake restoration activities will greatly enhance the benefits expected from proposed actions by identifying proactive restoration solutions in addition to retroactive restoration solutions. This holistic approach should enhance the outcome of recommendations from this report and help the Lake Carlinville community to understand that watershed management and lake restoration are truly interrelated. | | | | Date Created: | 12 07 2007 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041175 Original UID: 21130 FIRST WORD: Watershed | |

Pursuant to the information collected and the conclusions derived from the Diagnostic Study (Part 1) of this Report, a Lake and Watershed Management Plan (Part 2) was developed by investigating potential alternatives for restoring the water quality and enhancing the recreational and aesthetic qualities of Lake Carlinville and its watershed. This plan should facilitate future implementation of recommendations and serve as a vehicle for additional funding through the Nonpoint Source Pollution Control Program or Illinois Clean Lakes Program. | | | | Date Created: | 12 07 2007 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041176 Original UID: 21131 FIRST WORD: Part | |
| 1175: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Historic data collected by the IEPA indicated elevated levels of nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus compounds). Eutrophication of the reservoir impacts fish and other wildlife, degrades the quality of raw water available to CWS and raises its operating costs. Additionally shoreline erosion and sedimentation decrease the lake volume and further exacerbate the aforementioned problems. Because the reservoir provides public drinking water, significant benefit exists in improving the quality of the water and habitat it provides. | | | | Date Created: | 12 2 2009 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041177 Original UID: 21132 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |

| 1177: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2005 July 19 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Villa Park is in the Salt Creek watershed (WSID ILGL09) along segment GL09. This segment of the Creek is rated as partial support for overall use and aquatic life and nonsupport for swimming according to the 2000 Illinois Water Quality Report. The impairments are reported to be caused by priority organics, PCBs, excess nutrients including phosphorus, nitrogen and nitrates, salinity/TDS/chlorides, flow alteration, and excessive algal growth/chlorophyll a. The sources of pollutants are listed as municipal point sources including combined sewer overflows, collection system failures, urban runoff/storm-sewers, hydrologic/habitat modifications, upstream impoundment, flow regulation and modification, and contaminated sediments. Many of the causes and sources listed above are related to urban runoff, which is largely unregulated at this time. Thus, implementing and providing examples of best management practices to cleanse and reduce volumes of urban stormwater runoff is greatly needed in this largely built out watershed. | | | | Date Created: | 07 19 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | Financial Assistance Number 3190310 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041179 Original UID: 21134 FIRST WORD: Villa | |
| 1178: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2009 July 24 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The City of Bloomington was awarded a $950,000 IEPA 319 Grant to implement several strategies to control nonpoint source pollution, including sediment and nutrients, along Kickapoo Creek in McLean County, IL. The project site is located at the junction of two headwater tributaries of Kickapoo Creek, approximately 6 miles east of downtown Bloomington, where a new 450 acre subdivision is being constructed. The watersheds of the two tributaries are markedly different; with the smaller northern tributary urbanizing while the larger, eastern tributary remains agricultural for the foreseeable future. The site provided a unique opportunity to study and implement several strategies for nonpoint source pollution control by restoring the channel and floodplain within an 88-acre City park. | | | | Date Created: | 08 19 2009 | | | | Agency ID: | Grant #3190713 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041180 Original UID: 21135 FIRST WORD: Kickapoo | |
| 1179: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2005 December | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Water quality has been declining in Thorn Creek for the past several decades, largely due to the effects of land conversion. With conversion to cropland and urban cover, prairie has declined from an estimated 70 percent in pre-settlement times to less than 12 percent within the grassland areas. As a result, increased stormwater runoff has carried a significant pollutant burden into the stream. Aquatic communities have suffered as well, although conditions vary along the stream course. Studies at certain locations have shown poor fish diversity and a preponderance of pollution tolerant organisms. With its array of different habitat types, however, the Thorn Creek watershed still supports a large number of species for its size, made possible in large part by the conservation of natural areas in forest preserve lands along the stream. | | | | Date Created: | 02 03 2006 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041181 Original UID: 21136 FIRST WORD: Thorn | |
