This book was released on 1979 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authorized by the Flood Control Act of June 28, 1938, Public Law No. 761 (Seventy-fifth Congress, third session), the East-Lynn Reservoir Project provides for flood control, recreation, and fish and wildlife conservation. The project is located on East Fork of Twelvepole Creek in Wayne County, West Virginia, approximately six air miles southeast of Wayne, West Virginia. Reservoir impoundment was initiated in the spring of 1972. At seasonal recreation pool elevation of 202 m (662 ft) mean sea level, the project consists of a 407 ha (1, 0005 ac) lake completely surrounded by approximately 9,521 ha (23,527 ac) of contiguous highlands, comprising an overall project acquisition of 9,928 ha (24,532 ac) in fee. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) submimitted three separate reports (August 15, 1961; July 2, 1964; and October 9, 1964) describing pre-project conditions and predicting post-impoundment impacts on fish and wildlife resources. Fishery considerations were treated in greater depth than wildlife aspects in all three FWS reports. The FWS reports correctly predicted that adverse impacts on fish and wildlife utilization attributable to the project could be successfully mitigated. Fish and wildlife have benefitted substantially from the project as a result of the newly developed reservoir fishery and the large area of peripheral land purchased in conjunction with the project which is protected from incompatible uses.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The December 19, 1961, FWS planning report contained three well conceived recommendations pertinent to wildlife resources, viz: (1) a request for development of a plan to accommodate project zoning, (2) that all project lands acquired be clearly marked, and (3) that an approximate 3,701 ha (9,145 ac) contiguous tract located on the Cimarron arm of the reservoir be purchased in fee, fenced at project expense, and licensed to the ODWC for wildlife management purposes. The recommendation for a zoning plan was subsequently implemented and lands off limits to hunting have been identified and signed. The CE rejected the FWS's recommendation for the purchase of the requested tract on the Cimarron arm of the reservoir because of unfavorable cost-benefit ratio (0.1) as computed by the CE. In 1974 a total of 6,273 ha (15,500 ac) of incidentally acquired project property (including 4,970 ha (12,280 ac) of land and 1,303 ha (3,220 ac)of water), divided between the Cimarron and Arkansas River arms of the reservoir, was licensed to the ODWC for wildlife management. In all, 6,274 ha (15,504 ac) of project lands are open to public hunting. The severe terrestrial wildlife losses anticipated by the FWS did not occur. Hunting effort currently supported by the project is greater than the FWS estimated hunting levels for resident terrestrial game species predicted for the area without-the-project. However, compensation has been achieved only as a result of intensive management involving substantial monetary outlays by the ODWC for fencing and habitat improvement programs.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lake impounded by Council Grove Dam, on the Neosho River, Kansas, flooded approximately 24 km (15 mi) of stream and river habitat. Terrestrial wildlife populations dependent upon 1,157 ha (2,860 ac), which were permanently inundated plus an additional 1,004 ha (2,480 ac) in the five-year flood frequency pool, were impacted by the Council Grove project. Upon initiation of water supply storage, an original though not yet contracted project purpose, the project will permanently inundate 1,327 ha (3,280 ac). Inter-agency coordination was poor during the critical early planning stages. Pre-construction fish and wildlife planning recommendations lacked detail and were not submitted in a timely manner. Several major planning recommendations provided by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, in cooperation with the Kansas Forestry, Fish and Game Commission, were never implemented by the Corps of Engineers. Among these recommendations were acquisition of 293 ha (725 ac) of land above the five year flood pool, for wildlife mitigation purposes, and provision of a 15 cfs minimum water release downstream. Acquisition of the wildlife mitigation lands was requested very late in the planning process. This recommended land acquisition plan was rejected by the construction agency on the grounds that the cost: benefit ratio was unfavorable.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carlyle Lake, which covers 10,522 ha (26,000 ac) at normal pool is the largest impoundment in the State of Illinois. Construction was initiated by the St. Louis District of the Corps of Engineers (CE) in 1964 and completed in 1967. The FWS report was prepared in 1954, appended to the CE survey report, and submitted to Congress in 1957. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1958, and therefore fell under the full purview of the 1958 Amendments to the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act. The FWS provided 12 fish and wildlife-related planning recommendations, several of which constituted affirmations of proposed CE design and operational plans for the project and several others which were important, through pro forma articles generally contained in every FWS report of that time-period. With the important exception of the recommended timber clearing, later amended at the request of the conservation agencies to allow standing timber to remain in the upper section of the summer pool, all but one of the six site specific recommendations were implemented by the construction agency. The FWS's recommendation to acquire additional land for wildlife was not implemented by the CE. The apparent losses in squirrel, rabbit, quail and opossum populations far exceeded the pre-project estimates. Contrary to the predicted basinwide adverse impact on deer, it is clear that the project impacts on deer resources were localized and directly related to the amount of deer habitat flooded by the permanent pool.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beltzville Dam is located in Carbon County, Pennsylvania, on Pohopoco Creek, approximately 8.4 km (5.2mi) above its confluence with the Lehigh River. The primary project purposes for the 383 ha (947 ac) lake are flood control and water supply. The FWS originally indicated that federal acquisition of an area roughly equivalent to the flooded area, and opening of these lands to public hunting, would recover all project-associated wildlife losses. Later, the FWS indicated that mitigation of damages at Beltzville would require the intense management of 121 ha (300 ac) of project land at a cost of $5,600 for initial development and $2,200 O & M annually for a period of five years, for a total five-year cost of $16,600. The FWS further recommended licensing the 121 ha (300 ac) of project lands to the PGC for wild-life management purposes. these actions were considered necessary to replace the project-related projected loss of 200 man-days of hunting. The desired project lands were licensed to the PGC for wildlife management; however, development and operation have been totally at state expense. The prime planning aid relating to fishery resources was prepared by the PFC and FWS in 1964. Total angler-use of the project was predicted to average 33,000 man-days which appears reasonably accurate.

This book was released on 1977 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clark Hill Lake received COngressional authorization in 1944 to provide power, flood control and navigation benefits. Post-authorization planning recommendations regarding the project-related fish and wildlife resources were developed by the state and federal wildlife agencies in 1945-1946. These recommendations were submitted in one of the first River Basin Studies Reports. The report was released by the FWS (Fish and Wildlife Statistics) in 1946. Many deficiencies were apparent in this early attempt at interagency cooperative planning for fish and wildlife. Coordination between agencies was woefully inadequate. Consideration of several important impacts of project development on these resources were omitted in the 1946 report. An unusually large acreage was acquired by the construction agency incidental to authorized project purposes. The impacts of this acquisition plan on wildlife resources were inadequately quantified. Major errors in estimating post-project fish and wildlife resources also occurred. Deer and turkey populations were not expected to develop after project construction due to a lack of suitable habitat. However, reforestation of much of the southeast, including the project area, dramatically altered the wildlife habitat and project lands presently support populations estimated at 3,140 deer and 735 turkey. The methods used to develop upland game and fur animal impact predictions, based on sound concepts of carrying capacity and harvestable surplus, were considered satisfactory.
