1 Duluth Urban Watersheds Project Advisory Council 1-22, 2015 Stream selection criteria Impaired (MPCA/EPA) DNR Trout Stream designation Geographic distribution across Duluth Acceptable site available for stable, long-term hydrologic measurements Data useful for applying to other streams or for evaluating management activities Site selection criteria Absence of upstream and downstream obstructions Stable downstream control Straight section of stream Known channel dimensions (culvert, bridge) Suitable mounting locations for staff gauges and data loggers Presence of bridge or culvert for high flow measurements Proximity to stream discharge points Access from an adjacent road or trail Proximity to trails, public points of access or bus stops Permission from land owner and/or the public authority

2 MILLER CREEK Flow Station location: Between Michigan Street and Interstate 35 at 24th Ave. West; the box culvert on the east side of the Duluth Transit Authority (DTA) building.

15 Chester Creek Flow Station located at W College St (St Scholastica bridge). The creek runs relatively straight and flat and is absent of upstream and downstream obstructions and appears to include a stable downstream control. The culvert provides well defined channel dimensions, is suitable for mounting equipment and measuring high flow and is accessible from the street.

16 Keene Creek Flow Station located at the box culvert on West 57th Ave. downstream side, on the southwest corner of Irving Park. The creek runs relatively straight and flat at the culvert and is absent of upstream and downstream obstructions and includes a stable downstream control.

17 Tischer Creek Flow Station located on downstream side of 4 th St. The defined channel dimensions, equipment mounting suitability, and minimal channel obstructions. make this the best of the available options on Tischer.

18 Merritt Creek Flow Station located at the box culvert (downstream side) on Grand Ave. The creek runs relatively straight and flat at the culvert and is absent of upstream and downstream obstructions and appears to include a stable downstream control. The culvert provides well defined channel dimensions, is suitable for mounting equipment and measuring high flow and is accessible from the street.

19 Amity Creek Flow Station located at Occidental Blvd. The creek runs relatively straight and flat and is absent of upstream and downstream obstructions and appears to include a stable downstream control. The culvert provides well defined channel dimensions, is suitable for mounting equipment and measuring high flow and is accessible from the street.
