Watershed - Mukwonago River (FX06)
Mukwonago River Watershed

Details

The Mukwonago River Watershed is the smallest of the Fox River Basin watersheds (86 square miles) and lies mainly in Walworth and Waukesha counties, with a small portion falling in Jefferson County. The villages of Eagle, Mukwonago, North Prairie, and Wales lie within the watershed. There are nearly 50 miles of perennial streams in the watershed. Jericho Creek in the Village of Eagle and an unnamed ditch in the Village of Mukwonago are listed as supporting a cold water aquatic community. The Mukwonago River is listed as an Outstanding Resource Water in the state. None of the streams in the watershed are listed as impaired on the 303(d) list. There are fifteen lakes in the watershed, the largest being Lake Beulah (834 acres) in Walworth County. This may be the least disturbed watershed in the Southeast Fox River Basin. There are diverse and unique populations of warm water forage fish, game fish, mussels, amphibians, and invertebrates. Development of this watershed has increased rapidly in the past five to ten years. Impervious surfaces are becoming more abundant and stormwater runoff is increasing. Many of the historic areas that supported agriculture are now supporting suburban housing development. A total of six miles of Exceptional Resource Waters can be found along the Mukwonago River and Lulu Lake contributes 84 acres of Outstanding Resource Waters. Over 15 miles of trout waters are located along stretches of Jericho Creek and Mukwonago River. There are no impaired waters within the watershed.

Population, Land Use

The majority of the land cover in the Mukwonago River Watershed is agricultural (46%). The remaining rural land uses include forests (26%), wetlands (11%), and open water and open space (10%). Suburban land use only makes up four percent of the total land use in the watershed. Grasslands and urban spaces are even scarcer, with only two percent and one percent of the watershed’s total area, respectively.

Nonpoint and Point Sources

This watershed has a Nonpoint Source (NPS) Watershed Rank of high due to high rankings for lakes and groundwater resources. Streams in the watershed are ranked as a medium priority for NPS pollution. Furthermore, Upper and Lower Phantom Lake, Lake Beulah, Eagle Spring Lake, and Lulu Lake have all been ranked as high lakes for NPS pollution. Runoff from Urban Development and Impervious Surfaces Urban land use in the Mukwonago River watershed is expected to increase between the present and 2035. The percentage of impervious surfaces in a watershed that is directly connected to the stormwater drainage system can help evaluate the impacts of urbanization on a stream system. Studies show that 6 to 11 percent imperviousness in a watershed is approximately the point at which negative biological impacts could be expected to occur in coldwater systems. As of 2000, the Mukwonago River watershed had about 20 percent urban land overall, corresponding to about 6 percent directly connected imperviousness. At the same time, the Eagle Spring, Jericho, Beulah, and Phantom subwatersheds were also below the threshold level of 6 to 11 percent. The Mukwonago subwatershed exceeded this threshold, with approximately 25 per¬cent connected impervious surface. However, it is important to note that 98 % of the water in the Mukwonago watershed flows through this sub-watershed, with much less development in the upstream sub-watersheds. The Mukwonago and the Jericho subwatersheds are expected to exceed 38 and 13 percent connected impervious surface by 2035 based upon the 2035 planned land use from the Waukesha and Walworth County comprehensive plans. Although urban density development has proceeded at accelerated rates in the Mukwonago and Jericho subwatersheds compared to the other subwatersheds, development is expected to continue to occur in all the subwatersheds, collectively increasing the risks of degradation of water quality and the fishery. It is important to note that preservation of substantial riparian buffers throughout the entire Mukwonago River watershed has likely mitigated the negative impacts of development here. Sewer Service Areas/Facility plans Sanitary sewer service areas have been delineated through a local sewer service area planning process. As part of this process, the community concerned, assisted by SEWRPC, determines a precise sewer service area boundary consistent with local land use plans and development objectives. Sewer service area plans include detailed maps of environmentally significant areas within the sewer service area. Following adoption of the plan by the designated management agency for the sewage treatment plant, local sewer service area plans are considered for adoption by SEWRPC as a formal amendment to the regional water quality management plan. The Commission then forwards the plans to the WDNR for approval. It should be noted that, despite its proximity to the Mukwonago River, the Village of Mukwonago sewage treatment plant discharges to the Fox River. Stormwater Permits Within the watershed, the Village of Mukwonago, Village of North Prairie, Village of Wales, Town of Mukwonago, and Town of Genesee are Phase 2 municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) with general permits. These permits require the municipalities to meet the EPA’s standard six minimum measures, including urban stormwater outreach and public involvement with the general public, construction site and long-term stormwater runoff controls, illicit discharge detection and elimination programs and general good housekeeping measures (pollution prevention) at the municipality’s own properties and in the programs the municipality operates. In addition, the State of Wisconsin requires municipal stormwater permittees to reduce the amount of sediment (total suspended solids) entering the waters of the state through the MS4 systems by 20%, with the ultimate goal of reaching 40% reductions. These reductions are applied to all of the urbanized areas of the municipality, and should consider the waterways receiving the stormwater runoff when improvements are implemented. All of the MS4 permittees in the Mukwonago River Watershed participate in the Waukesha County Information & Education program, which is lead by the Waukesha County Parks & Land Use Department. There are nine Tier 2 industrial permitted facilities, two permitted scrap auto recycling facilities, and four permitted non-metallic mining sites within the Mukwonago River watershed. These facilities all have standard permit language to follow to minimize the pollutants of concern reaching the nearby waters of the state. Existing Stormwater Management Systems A variety of stormwater management features are located in the Mukwonago River watershed. Some of these BMPs include wet and dry detention basins, grass swales, filter strips, infiltration basins and trenches, and constructed and artificial prairies, kettles, and wetlands. Installation and maintenance of appropriate stormwater BMPs are an important part of maintaining good water quality within the Mukwonago River watershed. Because they have been implemented over time, not all BMPs in the watershed were designed and constructed based on current technical standards. New BMPs in the watershed are designed based on current technical standards for stormwater management that include criteria intended to protect water quality. Older stormwater BMPs could have increased functionality for water quality improvement if modifications are made to bring them up to the current standards. Also, BMPs that promote infiltration of precipitation are important in the watershed for maintenance of stream baseflows and coldwater stream characteristics.

Ecological Landscapes for Mukwonago River Watershed

Ecological Landscapes

The Southeast Glacial Plains Ecological Landscape makes up the bulk of the non-coastal land area in southeast Wisconsin. This ecological landscape is made up of glacial till plains and moraines. Most of this ecological landscape is composed of glacial materials deposited during the Wisconsin Ice Age, but the southwest portion consists of older, pre-Wisconsin till with a more dissected topography. Soils are lime-rich tills overlain in most areas by a silt-loam loess cap. Agricultural and residential interests throughout the landscape have significantly altered the historical vegetation. Most of the rare natural communities that remain are associated with large moraines or are in areas where the Niagara Escarpment occurs close to the surface. Historically, vegetation in the Southeast Glacial Plains consisted of a mix of prairie, oak forests and savanna, and maple-basswood forests. Wet-mesic prairies, southern sedge meadows, emergent marshes, and calcareous fens were found in lower portions of the landscape. End moraines and drumlins supported savannas and forests. Agricultural and urban land use practices have drastically changed the land cover of the Southeast Glacial Plains since Euro-American settlement. The current vegetation is primarily agricultural cropland. Remaining forests occupy only about 10% of the land area and consist of maple-basswood, lowland hardwoods, and oak. No large mesic forests exist today except on the Kettle Interlobate Moraine which has topography too rugged for agriculture. Some existing forest patches that were formerly savannas have succeeded to hardwood forest due to fire suppression. State Natural Areas Beulah Bog Beulah Bog lies in a series of four kettle holes and features an undisturbed bog with many unusual plants more typical of northern bogs. Classical stages of ecological succession are exhibited in the bog including: a shallow bog lake dominated by watershield with white and yellow waterlilies and extensive floating mud flats; an advancing, quaking sedge and sphagnum mat between 25 and 50 feet wide; northern wet forest of tamarack and bog shrubs and; a wet open moat surrounding the main bog, dominated by wild calla and cattails. Undisturbed bogs in this area are rare and the site supports a number of regionally rare plants with more northern affinities including dense cotton grass, large and small cranberry, and small bladderwort. The site harbors at least six species of insectivorous plants and the state-threatened plant, kitten tails (Bessya bullii), is also found here. The bog lake provides habitat for several dragonfly species and other invertebrates. Beulah Bog is owned by the DNR and was designated a State Natural Area in 1975. Clifford F. Messinger Dry Prairie & Savanna Preserve Stretching across more than 20 miles of kettle moraine topography of kettle holes, interlobate moraine, and outwash plains in southeastern Wisconsin, this preserve consists of sixteen separate sites, grouped into five units, containing prairie and oak opening communities. Each site has a unique flora which together characterizes the presettlement flora of the region. The prairies are dominated by big and little blue-stems, Indian grass, prairie drop-seed, and side-oats grama. Flowering plants include pasque flower, bird’s-foot violet, purple prairie-clover, hoary puccoon, old-field goldenrod, and blazing-star. Although each has its distinctive character, two sites deserve discussion here. Bald Bluff Dry Prairie is the largest dry prairie of the group and the most diverse in terms of plant species. It also has historical significance: it was visited by Abraham Lincoln when he was in the U.S. Army and it is thought to be a Native American signal hill. Whitewater Oak Opening, covering 120 acres of rugged morainal topography, is dominated by bur oak on the ridge tops and south- and southwest-facing slopes, by red oak on the north-facing slopes, and by white oak in other places. Like the few other remnant oak openings in the state, it has been invaded by shrubs and other woody growth over the years, especially honeysuckle and prickly ash. However, a wildfire in the 1950’s opened up the site to a certain extent, and this natural fire is being mimicked by prescribed burning, reinstating this crucial process of the oak opening ecosystem. Clifford F. Messinger Dry Prairie and Savanna Preserve is owned by the DNR and was designated a State Natural Area in 1990. Eagle Centre Prairie Eagle Centre Prairie features a remnant prairie and bur oak opening situated on broken, gravelly interlobate moraine. Scattered, large, open-grown bur oaks with white and black oak are interspersed with prairie-like openings. A moderate number of native prairie and savanna species have persisted, and those that are especially resistant to grazing can still be found in abundance including pasque flower, prairie smoke, and the state-threatened kitten tails (Besseya bullii). Other species include purple love grass, prairie dropseed, side-oats grama, death camas, purple prairie clover, bird’s-foot violet, whorled milkweed, shooting star, showy goldenrod, silky aster, and thimbleweed. Dense thickets of shrubs and saplings occur under large oaks, especially in more mesic draws and kettles. Management practices such as brushing, prescribed burning, and interseeding of native species will help restore and maintain the vigor of the prairie and oak opening. Eagle Centre Prairie is owned by the Waukesha Land Conservancy and was designated a State Natural Area in 2002. Eagle Oak Opening Eagle Oak Opening was the first oak opening found in a statewide search and contains an example of kettle hole moraine topography and large numbers of open-grown white and bur oaks. Most of the former oak opening has reverted to dry-mesic forest but there are areas where some of these prairie species can still be found. Species include big and little blue-stem, Indian grass, side-oats grama, prairie drop-seed, blue-eyed grass, prairie buttercup, alum-root, prairie smoke, New Jersey tea, bird’s-foot, prairie violets, shooting-star, pale-spiked lobelia, white camas, goldenrods, and asters. There is also a showy display of pasque flowers in the spring. The area has many glacial formations including kettle holes with ephemeral ponds that are important habitat for amphibians. Eagle Oak Opening is owned by the DNR and was designated a State Natural Area in 1968. Lulu Lake Lulu Lake is an assemblage of exceptionally high quality and diverse wetland and upland communities on glacial topography in the Kettle Moraine region. Many of the natural communities protected here have been virtually eliminated from southeastern Wisconsin. The focal point of the area is the 95-acre Lulu Lake, a 40-foot deep, hardwater drainage kettle lake fed by the Mukwonago River and situated at the base of glacial deposits. The clear waters harbor a diverse fish, amphibian, and reptile fauna, including pugnose shiner (Notropis anogenus), Blanding’s turtle (Emydoidea blandingii), and pickerel frog (Rana palustris). A large wetland complex with patches of calcareous fen and shrub carr embedded within a sedge meadow matrix surrounds the lake on the north and west. An inlet stream contains many rare species such as beaked spike-rush (Eleocharis rostellata), slender bog arrow grass (Triglochin maritimum), Ohio goldenrod (Solidago ohioensis), lesser fringed gentian (Gentianopsis procera), Kalm’s lobelia (Lobelia kalmii), and downy willow herb (Epilobium strictum). A small bog surrounded by tamarack forest is also present along with a good complement of other northern bog species including the uncommon dragon’s mouth orchid (Arethusa bulbosa). Scattered patches of prairie grow within the oak opening and woodlands and harbor the state-threatened kitten tails (Besseya bullii). Other rare species include the dion skipper butterfly (Euphyes dion). Lulu Lake is owned by the DNR and The Nature Conservancy and was designated a State Natural Area in 1977. Mukwonago River The Mukwonago River is among the cleanest and most biologically diverse streams in southeastern Wisconsin and provides critical habitat for a number of rare, threatened, and endangered species of fish and invertebrates. Between Eagle Spring and Phantom Lakes, the river is designated an Exceptional Resource Water, with clear, warm water and a maximum depth of 2’. The bottom is composed of sand, rocks and gravel and contains many large glacial boulders. At least 53 species of fish, including the state-threatened longear sunfish (Lepomis megalotis) and state-endangered starhead topminnow (Fundulus dispar) have been found here. In fact, the two-mile stretch of river from the natural area downstream to its confluence with the Fox River, contains the last known self-sustaining longear sunfish population in Wisconsin. Among the other fish inhabiting the stream are grass pickerel, rosyface shiner, sand shiner, banded killifish, tadpole madtom, rainbow darter, and brook silverside. Longnose gar are often seen patrolling the waters. Equally diverse is the freshwater mussel fauna. This reach of the Mukwonago is one of the most biologically-rich mussel habitats in the state. Sixteen species are found here, including Wisconsin’s only remaining viable population of the state-endangered rainbow shell (Villosa iris). Rare dragonflies known from the stream are the fragile forktail (Ischnura posita) and the double-striped bluet (Enallagma basidens). Beds of coontail and other submerged aquatics are common in the stream, while the banks contain bulrushes, sedges and other emergent plant species. The 44-acre State Natural Area lies within the larger Mukwonago River Watershed corridor, a mosaic of natural communities including forest, savanna, wetlands, and lakes. This diverse landscape is home to a wide array of native plants and animals and is an important stopover site for a number of Neotropical migratory birds. Mukwonago River is owned by the DNR and was designated a State Natural Area in 2005. Pickerel Lake Fen Pickerel Lake Fen is a diverse alkaline fen that originates at the base of a glacial ridge from seeps and springs. The fen has a rich flora and is quite large for a fen. Shrub encroachment is confined largely to the first 25 meters bordering the upland. Downslope, towards Pickerel Lake, the fen becomes quaking and eventually grades into rushes and cattails. Unusual plant assemblages are found including large populations of shrubby cinquefoil, pitcher plant, sedges, bulrushes, and blue-joint grass. Showy species such as marsh blue violet, swamp milkweed, Joe-Pye weed, boneset, and several goldenrods are common. The uplands are no longer farmed and now show evidence of invasion by prairie plants. The site has been used for foraging by sandhill cranes. Pickerel Lake Fen is owned by the Wisconsin Chapter of The Nature Conservancy and was designated a State Natural Area in 1986. Other Nature Preserves Newell and Ann Meyer Nature Preserve A major portion of the headwaters of the Mukwonago River rises from springs on the Newell and Ann Meyer Nature Preserve. In 2006, Newell and Ann Meyer donated the land to The Nature Conservancy through their estate, which constitutes the largest gift of land and assets ever made in Wisconsin for conservation. The preserve is adjacent to the southern unit of the Kettle Moraine State Forest and is located about three miles northwest of the Conservancy’s Lulu Lake and Crooked Creek preserves. The Meyers’ generous gift of land and other financial assets allowed the Conservancy to establish the nature preserve, open it to the public in 2009 and begin restoration efforts. Prior to the Meyers’ acquisition of the land, about two-thirds of it was in agricultural production. In the coming years, the Conservancy will restore about 200 acres to native prairie. Prairies and other grasslands are invaluable in the protection of bird species that nest only in these wide open, grassy landscapes. They include bobolinks, which arrive at the preserve each year after a migration of some 5,000 miles from South America. Forty-two acres of oak woods on the property will be enhanced by the removal of invasive plants including buckthorn, honeysuckle and garlic mustard. The Conservancy will also improve the health of the wetlands at the preserve by removing purple loosestrife, Phragmites, and other wetland invaders (http://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/northamerica/unitedstates/wisconsin/placesweprotect/newell-and-ann-meyer-nature-preserve.xml). Crooked Creek Preserve Crooked Creek Preserve takes its name from the winding river that runs through it and like the Newell and Ann Meyer Nature Preserve harbors a major portion of the headwaters of the Mukwonago River. It is a landscape of steep ridges, kettle lakes, and wetlands inhabited by sandhill cranes and other interesting plants and wildlife. It’s also a great place to see and participate in restoration of the land as Conservancy volunteers remove pine plantations and restore parts of the preserve to prairie and oak savanna. The Nature Conservancy bought the 197-acre property from Aurora University (formerly George Williams College) in August, 2000. The Conservancy has spent nearly 10 years removing white and red pines from the preserve to prevent soil erosion into the river and to restore the oak savannas that once existed on the property. The pines don’t naturally occur in the area but have spread over the years from sites where they were planted, surrounding many of the oak trees native to the area, reducing the sunlight that reaches them, and starting to kill their lower branches (http://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/northamerica/unitedstates/wisconsin/placesweprotect/crooked-creek-preserve.xml). Rainbow Springs Lake In 2008, the state bought the 970-acre Rainbow Springs property for $10.8 million with funding from the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program in an attempt to help preserve the nearly pristine Mukwonago River system. Two golf courses located on the property were closed in 2010, but the future of the site remains in question at this time.

Hydrologic Features

The Mukwonago River Watershed may be considered to be composed of five subwatersheds: the Eagle Spring subwatershed, the Jericho subwatershed, the Beulah subwatershed, the Phantom subwatershed, and the Mukwonago subwatershed. It should be noted that the watershed boundary shown in the majority of the maps in the watershed plan is not the same as the official WDNR watershed boundary. The Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (SEWRPC) developed a custom watershed boundary in 2010 based upon a detailed analysis. The SEWRPC watershed is smaller, 74 square miles versus 86, and does not include the Village of Wales. See Map 2 in the watershed plan for a visual comparison of the two watershed boundaries. The surface-water resources consist of lakes, streams, and ponds. The major lakes of the watershed are Lulu Lake, Eagle Spring Lake, Lake Beulah, Upper Phantom Lake, and Lower Phantom Lake. Please see Table 2 in the watershed plan for a summary of the physical characteristics of these lakes. The Mukwonago River provides the major inflow into Eagle Spring Lake, entering the Lake from the south where it discharges from Lulu Lake. Lulu Lake is situated immediately upstream of Eagle Spring Lake and is accessible from Eagle Spring Lake by a navigable channel. The Eagle Spring Lake outflow is controlled by two outlet structures—a dam with a manually operated control gate (Wambold dam) and a former mill race (locally known as the Kroll dam)—both located at the east side of Eagle Spring Lake just west of CTH E. The confluence of Jericho Creek and the Mukwonago River is located about 350 feet downstream of the Wambold dam structure. The southernmost lake outlet from the former mill race joins the Mukwonago River about 500 feet downstream of the dam structure. The difference in elevation between the lakes decreases with increasing discharges at the Wambold dam, indicating that the Wambold dam influences water levels in both Lakes. This is consistent with the surface water elevation profile developed by the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (SEWRPC) staff from the 2005 Waukesha County DTM data. SEWRPC staff measured low flow discharge for several sites on Jericho Creek in November, 2007. Jericho Creek contributes about one-third of the total low flow discharge to the Mukwonago River, with the remaining two-thirds coming from Eagle Spring Lake, downstream of the confluence of Jericho Creek with the Mukwonago River. Downstream of its confluence with Jericho Creek, the Mukwonago River continues easterly, passing through Lower Phantom Lake and ultimately discharging into the Fox River in Waukesha County, about 8.5 miles downstream from Eagle Spring Lake. The Mukwonago River more than doubles its normal flow between the outlet of Eagle Spring Lake and the outlet of the Phantom Lakes. This is due to flow from numerous springs and seeps distributed throughout this section of the river. In addition, the Lake Beulah outlet discharges into the Mukwonago River prior to it entering Lower Phantom Lake. The Lake Beulah outlet was found to be roughly equivalent to the discharge from Eagle Spring Lake.

Fisheries

The Mukwonago River is home to 59 species of fish, including five that are threatened or endangered, and 14 species of mussels.

Mukwonago River Watershed At-a-Glance

Impaired Water in Mukwonago River Watershed
River and Stream QualityAll Waters in Watershed

According to the WDNR’s Register of Waterbodies (ROW) database, there are over 137 miles of streams and rivers in the Mukwonago River Watershed; 47 miles of which of have been entered into the WDNR’s assessment database. Of these 47 miles, approximately 47% are meeting Fish and Aquatic Life uses and are specified as in “good” condition. The condition of the remaining stream miles is not known or documented. Additional uses for which the waters are evaluated include Fish Consumption, General Uses, Public Health and Welfare, and Recreation. As These uses have not been directly assessed for the watershed. However, a general fish advisory for potential presence of mercury is in place for all waters of the state. Jericho Creek Jericho Creek, a six-mile tributary to Mukwonago River in Waukesha County, is designated as a cold Class II Trout water. Mukwonago River The Mukwonago River is a 16.8-mile-long river in Walworth and Waukesha Counties. Mile 4.08 through 9.68 (from the mouth) is classified as a Class II trout water. Mile 9.68 through 9.76 of Mukwonago River is classified as a Class III trout water, and Mile 11.97 through 15.47 of the river is a Class I trout water.

Lakes and Impoundments

The WDNR’s ROW database shows that there are over 306 acres of reservoirs and flowages (from Eagle Spring Lake and Swan Lake), 1,823 acres of lakes and ponds, and 215 acres of unspecified open water in the Mukwonago River Watershed. Of these, approximately 2,423 lake acres are entered into the state’s assessment database. Ninety percent of these 2,423 acres are indicated as supporting Fish and Aquatic Life use. A little over 240 acres have not been assessed for Fish and Aquatic Life use. Lake Beulah is the largest lake in the watershed at over 830 acres, followed by Lower Phantom Lake at over 370 acres. The following water narratives summarize the most recent information available for lakes and flowages in the watershed. Lulu Lake, Eagle Spring Lake, Lake Beulah, Lower Phantom Lake, and Upper Phantom Lake represent typical mesotrophic, hardwater, alkaline lakes that are considered to have relatively good water quality, be moderately fertile, and be capable of supporting abundant aquatic plant growth and productive fisheries. Physical and chemical parameters reported for each of these lakes indicate that the water quality ranges within the “fair” to “very good” range, depending upon the parameters considered. Total phosphorus levels were found to be generally below the level considered to cause nuisance algal and macrophytic growths. Summer stratification was likely to occur in Upper Phantom Lake, but unlikely to occur in Lower Phantom Lake or Eagle Spring Lake, due to their shallow depths. The surface waters of all the lakes remain well oxygenated and support healthy fish populations. Neither summerkill nor winterkill of fishes has been reported to be a problem, which indicates that the lakes provide adequate oxygenated water for fish and aquatic organisms. Internal releases of phosphorus from the bottom sediments were not considered to be a problem in any of the lakes. Aquatic plant management practices within the Mukwonago River system have focused on the control of nonnative, invasive species. The three public inland lake protection and rehabilitation districts in the watershed—Eagle Spring Lake Management District, Lake Beulah Management District, and the Phantom Lakes Management District—have conducted aquatic plant management programs in concert with their local communities. These aquatic plant management activities have focused on the control of Eurasian water milfoil within the lakes and of purple loosestrife in their shoreland wetland margins. Such interventions are conducted in accordance with their respective aquatic plant management plans, and with WDNR permits issued pursuant to Chapters NR 107 and NR 109 of the Wisconsin Administrative Code. Army Lake Army Lake is a natural lake managed for largemouth bass and panfish. This small lake has clear, fertile water, equal amounts of soft and sandy shore, and few fish management problems. Unimproved access is provided by one narrow frontage road and two liveries offer access for launching, picnicking, and swimming. The Salvation Army maintains a camp on the east shore which accommodates up to 250 guests and provides a swimming beach and boats. There are only 14 lakeshore dwellings, and frontage is only 20% developed. Of the remaining shore, 15% is tamarack bog (10 acres) and 85% is wooded and maintained for camping and picnicking by resort owners. The lake is presently landlocked; the outlet has been ditched and rarely flows (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Army Lake (East Troy Lake), T-4-N, R-18-E, Sec. 16, Surface Acres = 76, S.D.F. =1.14, Maximum Depth = 17 feet). Beulah Lake Beulah Lake (Lake Beulah) is an impounded series of natural lakes managed for largemouth bass and panfish with northern pike present but not common to the fishery. The shoreline is highly irregular with many bays and peninsulas. Originally this was a chain of three lakes; however, a dam on the outlet (built around 1840) created one sheet of water with five major basins separated by shallows. Weeds are a problem in the shallow bays and flooded connecting channels. Public access is provided but restricted in construction to accommodate light fishing boats only. Fee launching is provided at four private ramps. Nearly 200 acres of wetland occupy the shoreline. There are four private camps on the lake (Girl Scouts, Y.M.C.A., and church groups) (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Beulah Lake, T-4-N, R-18-E, Surface Acres =712, S.D.F. =2.54, Maximum Depth 58 feet). Booth Lake Booth Lake is a natural basin lake managed for largemouth bass and panfish; in addition, yellow perch and bullheads are common to the fishery. The lake is nearly circular with a small island in the center. The water is generally quite clear and much of the shoreline is sand and gravel. One town road provides difficult access, and a town park provides restricted access - fee swimming, boat launching for residents of the township only. Boats are also available at two resorts, one of which maintains a swimming beach. A Girl Scout camp exists on the north shore and accommodates 160-170 girls for two week periods through the summer. The lake’s small acreage, the centrally located island, and heavy use by swimmers, canoeists, and row boat anglers indicate the necessity for outboard motor control in some degree. The lake is landlocked and occupies a simple basin in glacial drift (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Booth Lake, T-4-N, R-17-E, Sec. 13, 24, Surface Acres = 108, S.D.F. = 1.08, Maximum Depth = 24 feet). Brown Lake Brown Lake is a small clear lake in outwash deposits at the edge of a ground moraine. The lake occupies part of a marshy valley draining southward to the Mukwonago River below Eagle Spring Lake. A small spring stream is a major water source and enters on the east shore from the base of the moraine. There are 19 acres of adjoining marsh and waterfowl make limited use of the lake. Largemouth bass and pan fish comprise the fishery. Public access is not available and the lake may be classed as semi-wilderness in appearance (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Brown Lake T5N, R18E, Section 30 Surface Acres = 11. 5, S. D. F. = 1. 14, Maximum Depth = 40 feet). Eagle Spring Lake Eagle Springs Lake is an impoundment of the Mukwonago River above the inlet of Jericho Creek. The dam has a 12-foot head and affects the water level upstream to the Walworth County line. Largemouth bass and pan fish provide a fishery with northern pike making a lesser contribution. Weeds are the major use problem; winterkill is avoided by the high flow-through rate. The inlet is navigable and boats travel at will between this lake and Lulu Lake in Walworth County. The shore line is very irregular and there is much additional frontage due to several islands. Access other than by navigable water is not available (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Eagle Spring Lake T5N, R17E, Sections 35 and 36 Surface Acres = 227, S.D.F. = 1.89, Maximum Depth = 12 feet.) UPDATE--Public access to the lake is available by WDNR boat ramp near Wambold Dam in Eagleville. Hogan Lake Hogan Lake is a small, shallow, irregular lake in glacial deposits. The lake has an outlet tributary to the Mukwonago River. The fish, population is limited to pan fish and minnows because of winterkill conditions and the lack of suitable habitat. This is a marl basin somewhat unusual for its location. The lake is entirely within the bounds of a licensed shooting preserve and is therefore without access. Its principal value is aesthetic, though waterfowl make some use of the area (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Hogan Lake T5N, R18E, Section 31 (8) Surface Acres = 8, S.D.F. = 2.28, Maximum Depth = 3 feet). Lower Phantom Lake Lower Phantom Lake is an impoundment on the Mukwonago River at Mukwonago created by a dam of approximately eight-foot head. Northern pike, pan fish, and largemouth bass comprise the fishery. Weed and algae control has been necessitated frequently in the shallower shore areas. Phantom Ranch Bible Camp and a YMCA camp occupy parts of the shore line. Access is possible from several road ends; however, parking facilities are inadequate. A considerable portion of the west shore is classed as deep marsh in wetlands inventory and the inlet valley is primarily marshland (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Lower Phantom Lake T5N, R18E, Sections 26 and 35 Surface Acres = 166, S.D.F. = 1.81, Maximum Depth = 10 feet). UPDATE--Public access is available by fishing pier and boat ramp in Phantom Glen Park in Mukwonago. Since 1981 the Phantom Lakes Management District (PLMD) has sought to protect and improve the overall well-being of the Phantom Lakes (Upper and Lower) as well as educate lakeshore residents and the local citizenry on matters concerning land and lake use laws, boating safety issues, and general environmental aspects that might effect the lakes. The PLMD is responsible for fish stocking and monitoring the health of the various forms of wildlife that inhabit the lakes and they operate a harvester which attempts to maintain a delicate relationship between the desirable aquatic pant life and the noxious weeds that occasionally make life difficult for recreationists (from Phantom Lakes Management District Mission Statement). Lulu Lake Lulu Lake is a natural lake managed for northern pike, largemouth bass, and panfish. This was once called Deep Lake since most of its basin is over 20 feet deep. The shores are entirely marshy save for a narrow gravel bank on part of the east shore. Access is afforded by the outlet channel, which is navigable from Eagle Spring Lake and through private campgrounds on the south shore. A trailer rental and one cottage are the only developments on the lake. A Milwaukee Boys Club maintained the northwest shore in its natural state. The 368 acres of equally woody and marshy wetlands adjoining its shore line classify this lake as aesthetically outstanding (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Lulu Lake, T-4-N, R-17-E, Surface Acres = 95, S.D.F. = 1.10, Maximum Depth = 40 feet). Mukwonago Park Pond Mukwonago Park Pond is a very small spring pond completely within the Mukwonago County Park. The pond supports largemouth bass and pan fish and contains several good springs, generally maintaining some open water year-round. Its banks are sodded to the water line. Tiling provides an outlet to Roxy Pond, also in the park (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Mukwonago Park Pond T5N, R18E, Section 29 (14) Surface Acres = 1.4, S.D.F. = 1.01 (est.), Maximum Depth = 5 feet). Peters Lake This is an aging pothole lake, heavily vegetated, with an average depth of probably three to four feet, obviously suffering annually from winterkill. A modest development of small cottages exists on the west shore; however, most dwellings are abandoned, and the lake is seldom visited except during waterfowl hunting season. Aesthetic values are high since the lake is surrounded by high gravel hills of the glacial moraine. A low gravel ridge separates the take from Swift Lake to the northeast. Emergent vegetation is found around the entire shore and opportunities for wildlife observation are excellent. Presently public access is not available (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Peters Lake, T-4-N, R-17-E, Surface Acres = 60, S.D.F. = 1.11, Maximum Depth = 8 feet). Pickerel Lake Pickerel Lake is a natural drainage lake managed for largemouth bass and panfish, with northern pike common to the creek in the early portion of the season. This is a small, nearly circular lake with private frontage but accessible by navigable inlet and outlet. Only three owners have lake frontage. The presence of several duck blinds suggests the importance of this small lake for pass shooting. About 50 acres of marsh adjoin the lake shores, enhancing its aesthetic value (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Pickerel Lake, T-4-N, R-17-E, Surface Acres = 27, S.D.F. = 1.10, Maximum Depth = 31 feet). Rainbow Springs Lake Rainbow Springs Lake is a small, irregular lake in a marshy valley of glacial deposits. Largemouth bass and pan fish comprise the fishery; however, occasional winterkill, and fluctuating water levels somewhat limit fishing opportunities. The lake is entirely within the bounds of a licensed shooting preserve and therefore lacks public access. Members of the now-defunct Rainbow Springs recreation resort used to utilize the lake for fishing and swimming. Adjoining wetlands, proximity to the Mukwonago River, and the semi-wilderness appearance of the lake basin, add to the value of this area for waterfowl, marsh fur bearers, and wildlife observation (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Rainbow Springs Lake T5N, R18E, Section 31 Surface Acres = 6.5, S.D.F. = 1.93, Maximum Depth = 12 feet). Swan Lake Swan Lake is a typical small blocked drainage lake, spring and runoff fed, managed for largemouth bass and panfish. All surrounding land is owned by one person, thus access is not available. Vegetation along shore is primarily emergent forms, and floating or submergent forms are present but not in problem proportions. A small outlet flows to Beulah Lake over a dike impounding less than 6” of water (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Mud Lake, T-4-N, R-18-E, Surface Acres = 23, S.D.F. = 1.04, Maximum Depth =12 feet). Roxy Pond Roxy Pond is a small elongate lake in the Mukwonago County Park. Springs and seepage are the chief water sources, and a tiled outlet carries water to a small stream tributary to the nearby Mukwonago River. Recently the lake was chemically treated to remove the fish population, and largemouth bass were introduced. Presently this species constitutes the fishery supplemented by bullheads and northern pike. Park facilities are provided for swimming and boating. Lack of emergent vegetation and the park environment limit use by waterfowl (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Roxy Pond T5N, R18E, Section 29 (16) Surface Acres = 17, S.D.F. = 1.38, Maximum Depth = 8 feet). Swift Lake Swift Lake is managed for largemouth bass and bluegills. This shallow depression in the moraine is landlocked and therefore suffers water level fluctuations and occasional winterkill. Additionally, much of the bottom is vegetated; emergent plants are found around the entire shore line. Largemouth bass were reintroduced in 1960 following a winterkill. Public access is lacking, as are commercial facilities. Considerable development and small size have reduced the potential of this lake for other than limited recreation (Source: 1961, Surface Water Resources of Walworth County, WI: WI-DNR Swift Lake, T-4-N, R-17-E, Surface Acres = 17, S.D.F. = 1.21, Maximum Depth = 12 feet). Upper Phantom Lake Upper Phantom Lake is a small, irregular lake in outwash deposits augmented in acreage by a dam with about an eight-foot head on the outlet to Lower Phantom Lake. The fishery consists of pan fish, northern pike, and largemouth bass. In 1961, algae, weed, and snail control was necessitated on the beaches. Access is available for boat launching, however, parking is prohibited. There are no adjoining wetlands of consequence (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Upper Phantom Lake T5N, R18E, Section 35 Surface Acres = 111 S.D.F. = 1.42, Maximum Depth = 29 feet). Wood Lake Wood Lake is a small kettle lake in moraine drift. A small outlet stream flows to the Mukwonago River. Largemouth bass and pan fish constitute the fishery. The water is clear and the bottom primarily gravel. The lake is in a single ownership and has retained a semi-wilderness appearance with great aesthetic value. Public access is not available. Waterfowl and marsh fur bearers make moderate use of this area (Source: 1963, Surface Water Resources of Waukesha County Wood Lake T5N, R18E, Section 33 Surface Acres = 19, S.D.F. = 1.15, Maximum Depth = 23 feet).

Wetland Health

Wetland Status The Mukwonago River Watershed is the smallest of the Fox River Basin watersheds (86 square miles) and lies mainly in Walworth and Waukesha counties, with a small portion falling in Jefferson County. Roughly eight percent of the current land uses in the watershed are wetlands. About 79% of the original wetlands in the watershed are estimated to exist. Of these wetlands, the majority include forested wetlands (27%) and emergent wetlands (47%), which include marshes and meadows. Wetland Condition Little is known about the condition of the remaining wetlands but estimates of reed canary grass (RCG) infestations, an opportunistic aquatic invasive wetland plant, into different wetland types has been estimated based on satellite imagery. This information shows that reed canary grass dominates three percent of the existing emergent wetland habitats and two percent of the remaining forested wetlands. Reed canary grass domination inhibits successful establishment of native wetland species. Wetland Restorability Of the 1,137 acres of estimated lost wetlands in the watershed, approximately 73% are considered potentially restorable based on modeled data, including soil types, land use, and land cover (Chris Smith, DNR, 2009). Biological Characteristics of Wetlands Based on the WDNR 2005 wetland inventory, the natural cover types in the watershed are comprised of a variety of wetland, shallow marsh, deep marsh, prairie, grassland, shrubs, and forest and pine plantation vegetation communities. The riparian buffers correspond with the moderate to very high groundwater recharge potential areas. More than 180 vegetation surveys, including wetland delineations and environmental corridor and natural area assessments, were conducted throughout the Mukwonago River watershed from 1947 through 2006. Five rare State-designated threatened plant species were found to occur in several areas of the watershed. In addition, 17 State-designated species of special concern were also observed to occur within this watershed. A total of 611 native plant species were found within the Mukwonago River watershed. Some of the most abundant species that were found during field surveys in the Mukwonago River Watershed included marsh aster, Joe-pye weed, silky dogwood, black willow, bur oak, marsh milkweed, swamp aster, and boneset , tussock sedge, beaked willow, white oak, water hemlock, ciliated brome grass, shooting star, great water dock, and swamp thistle, sage willow, prairie dropseed, hoary puccoon, shrubby cinquefoil, kittentails, woolly sedge, brook lobelia, Ohio goldenrod, death camas/white camas, and fen muhly grass. However, of the 107 nonnative species recorded, the nine most dominant invasive plant species included common buckthorn, hybrid honeysuckle, reed canary grass, glossy buckthorn, Kentucky bluegrass, deadly nightshade, garlic-mustard, multiflora rose, and smooth brome grass. The presence of these invasive nonnative species threatens the quality and abundance of native plants and wildlife species within riparian buffers. Consequently, management of nonnative invasive species is an important issue to consider in order to protect the ecological integrity of the riparian corridors within the Mukwonago River system. Invasive Species in Wetlands Nonaquatic invasive vegetation species include reed canary grass, which is very dominant throughout the watershed. Significant stands of phragmites have also been located. Invasive terrestrial vegetation species found include garlic mustard, European buckthorn, and purple loosestrife, which were found among the nonnative plants on streambanks and shoreland areas throughout the watershed.

Fish Consumption Advice

No specific fish consumption advisories are in effect for waterbodies in the Mukwonago River Watershed at this time. However, the Fox River, which lies at the mouth of the Mukwonago River, does have a fish consumption advisory in effect for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and a general fish consumption advisory for potential presence of mercury is in place for all waters of the state.

Groundwater

Flow in the Mukwonago River system is dependent upon groundwater discharges from multiple aquifers, including the surficial shallow sand and gravel aquifer and the shallow bedrock aquifer . Groundwater enters the spring complex upstream of Lulu Lake through “boils” from a bedrock source, entering the springs through preferential flow paths within the fractured bedrock. The sand and gravel aquifer also contributes to this spring complex, which feeds Lulu Lake. A similar relationship was reported for the Lake Beulah area which also received a small contribution of groundwater from the deep aquifer. Lake Beulah Issues Related to Village of East Troy Municipal Well No. 7 Village of East Troy municipal well No. 7, which is located in the Troy Bedrock Valley near the southwestern shore of Lake Beulah, northeast of the intersection of Stringers Bridge Road and St. Peters Road, is constructed in the shallow aquifer. The well has been online and pumping, part time, since August of 2008. Concerns regarding the effect of the well on Lake Beulah and the Mukwonago River have been raised by the Lake Beulah Management District and the Lake Beulah Protective and Improvement Association. The determination of the effects of the well is an important issue that is being studied by consultants for both the Lake Management District and the Village. The Troy Bedrock Valley, which trends through southern Milwaukee and Waukesha Counties and across Walworth County, contains up to 500 feet of glacial deposits in its deepest parts. The bedrock is close to the ground surface in locations along the sides of the Valley. Several tributary bedrock valleys project outward from the Troy Bedrock Valley. Many of the smaller tributary valleys are poorly mapped and some may be currently unknown. The glacial deposits within the Valley range from dense clay to coarse sand and gravel. Many of the sand and gravel deposits are saturated and permeable and can serve as prolific shallow aquifers that can support high-capacity wells. The Troy Bedrock Valley also contains ecologically and economically significant surface water features including streams, lakes, springs, and wetlands. Existing pumping and potential increases in pumping from the aquifers has created significant concern over the potential impact of groundwater withdrawals on these surface water features. It is difficult to quantify the impact that a well or group of wells will have on the flow system in a complex aquifer system. In summary, the Mukwonago River streamflow is highly dependent upon groundwater discharge. Hence, it is also dependent upon recharge of the local shallow aquifer that ultimately discharges into the River. Therefore, management efforts to protect and maintain groundwater recharge will help protect and sustain discharge in the Mukwonago River and its associated high quality aquatic community. The following groundwater information is for Walworth and Waukesha counties (from Protecting Wisconsin’s Groundwater through Comprehensive Planning website, http://wi.water.usgs.gov/gwcomp/), which roughly approximates to the Mukwonago River Watershed. Two municipal water systems within the Mukwonago River Watershed have wellhead protection plans: East Troy and Mukwonago. East Troy also has a wellhead protection ordinance in place. Walworth and Waukesha counties have both adopted animal waste management ordinances. From 1979 to 2005, total water use in Walworth County has increased from about 10.0 million gallons per day to 15.3 million gallons per day due to increases in all use categories. The proportion of county water use supplied by groundwater has increased from around 89% to about 99% during the period 1979 to 2005. During the same time period, total water use in Waukesha County has increased from about 28.0 million gallons per day to about 39.7 million gallons per day. The increase in total water use over this period is due to increases in all use categories except aquaculture through 2000. While domestic and commercial uses continued increasing between 2000 and 2005, public use and losses, industrial, and irrigation uses all declined. The proportion of county water use supplied by groundwater has generally been greater than 99% during the period 1979 to 2000, but decreased in 2005 to 86%. Private Wells Ninety percent of 340 private well samples collected in Walworth County and 97% of 664 private well samples collected in Waukesha County from 1990 through 2006 met the health-based drinking water limit for nitrate-nitrogen. Land use affects nitrate concentrations in groundwater. An analysis of over 35,000 Wisconsin drinking water samples found that drinking water from private wells was three times more likely to be unsafe to drink due to high nitrate in agricultural areas than in forested areas. High nitrate levels were also more common in sandy areas where the soil is more permeable. In Wisconsin’s groundwater, 80% of nitrate inputs originate from manure spreading, agricultural fertilizers, and legume cropping systems. A 2002 study estimated that 21% of private drinking water wells in the region of Wisconsin that includes Walworth and Waukesha counties contained a detectable level of an herbicide or herbicide metabolite. Pesticides occur in groundwater more commonly in agricultural regions, but can occur anywhere pesticides are stored or applied. A total of 5,128 acres of land in Walworth County are in atrazine prohibition areas. Over three quarters (76%) of 33 private well samples collected in Walworth County and 90% of 61 private well samples collected in Waukesha County met the health standard for arsenic. Potential Sources of Contamination There are no Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) in the Mukwonago River Watershed; nor are there any licensed landfills or Superfund sites within the watershed. WDNR’s Remediation and Redevelopment (RR) Program oversees the investigation and cleanup of environmental contamination and the redevelopment of contaminated properties. The RR Program provides information about contaminated properties and other activities related to the investigation and cleanup of contaminated soil or groundwater in Wisconsin through its Bureau for Remediation and Redevelopment Tracking System (BRRTS) database (WDNR 2010e). The database shows that there are 10 sites in the Mukwonago River Watershed that are specified as “open”, meaning “contamination has affected soil, groundwater, or more and the environmental investigation and cleanup need to begin or are underway.” These sites include three Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) sites and seven Environmental Repair (ERP) sites. The Petroleum Environmental Cleanup Fund Award (PECFA) program was created in response to enactment of federal regulations requiring release prevention from underground storage tanks and cleanup of existing contamination from those tanks. PECFA is a reimbursement program returning a portion of incurred remedial cleanup costs to owners of eligible petroleum product systems, including home heating oil systems. As of May 31, 2007, $24,333,140 has been reimbursed by the PECFA program to clean up 187 petroleum-contaminated sites in Walworth County. This equates to $241 per county resident, which is less than the statewide average of $264 per resident. Over $70 million has been spent in Waukesha County on petroleum cleanup from leaking underground storage tanks, which equates to $186 per county resident.

The project will take place on the Mukwonago River, Crooked Creek Preserve, Baker Tract, and Ann Meyer preserves, on frontage owned by the Nature Conservancy. Work will also take place in Lulu Lake and Pickerel Lake. The work will be done by a combination of Conservancy staff, volunteers and contractors. The project includes control of Phragmites, purple loosestrife, reed canary grass, buckthorn, Eurasian water milfoil, curly leaf pondweed, hybrid cattail and narrow leafed cattail. Control methods include snorkel removal/hand pulling, hand cutting, mowing, backpack chemical treatment and beetle rearing/dispersal. Coconut fiber mats with green house grown native aquatic plants will be experimentally placed (transplanted) in Lulu and Pickerel Lakes. Nature Conservancy interns in canoes will also intercept boaters utilizing the channel between Lulu and Eagle Springs and speak about reversing their motors to prevent the spread of exotic species. Nature Conservancy Interns will also assist the Eagle Spring Lake Management District by helping to staff the boat launch at Eagle Spring Lake for CBCW. The project deliverable will be a final report that details the control methods utilized, the partnerships that assisted with the project, the result of the treatment, results of the transplant experiment, copies of all the maps generated and summary statistics regarding the successes and shortcomings of the treatments utilized.

Monitoring & Projects

Projects including grants, restoration work and studies shown below have occurred in this watershed. Click the links below to read through the text. While these are not an exhaustive list of activities, they provide insight into the management activities happening in this watershed.

Monitoring Studies

Lakes Baseline and Trends Monitoring River Monitoring to comply with Clean Water Act implementation - water quality standards: use designations, criterion, permit issuance and compliance, assessments and impaired waters management. Fisheries projects include a wide variety of “baseline” monitoring and targeted fieldwork to gain specific knowledge related to Wisconsin’s fish communities. In close cooperation with UW Extension and Wisconsin Sea Grant, education efforts focus on working with resource professionals and citizens statewide to teach boaters, anglers, and other water users how to prevent transporting aquatic invasive species when moving their boats. Additional initiatives include monitoring and control programs. Volunteer Monitoring The Citizen Lake Monitoring Network, the core of the Wisconsin Lakes Partnership, involves over 1,000 citizen volunteers statewide. The goals are to collect high quality data, to educate and empower volunteers, and to share this data and knowledge. Volunteers measure water clarity, using the Secchi Disk method, as an indicator of water quality. This information is then used to determine the lakes trophic state. Volunteers may also collect chemistry, temperature, and dissolved oxygen data, as well as identify and map plants, watch for the first appearance of Eurasian water-milfoil near boat landings, or alert officials about zebra mussel invasions on Wisconsin lakes. Monitoring work in this watershed consists of lake monitoring and surveys for water quality, aquatic plants, aquatic invasive species, and ice observations. Volunteer Stream Monitoring in the Mukwonago River Watershed Two Volunteer Stream Monitoring stations have been monitored by four volunteers from 2003 through 2010 in the FX06-Mukwonango River Watershed. One station is located in the Mukwonago River at Beulah Road, and the other is located in Jericho Creek at County Highway LO. Both stations are monitored using Level 1 procedures and are entered into the Water Action Volunteers (WAV) database (http://www.uwex.edu/erc/wavdb/). On average, stations in the watershed were monitored monthly from May through October for biotic index, flow, dissolved oxygen, instantaneous temperature and transparency. Volunteers also collected macroinvertebrates twice a year to determine a biotic index for each stream monitored. Streams are considered in poor quality if biotic index is between 1.0-2.0, fair quality if between 2.1-2.5, and in good quality if the index is between 2.6-3.5. Generally, biotic index values rated streams in the watershed to be in fair to good quality (ranging from 2.3-3.5), except on one field event in Jericho Creek on 08/03/2005. The lack of stoneflies in the stream during the field event dropped the biotic index to 1.8, indicating poor quality. In general, Jericho Creek had biotic index scores between fair and good quality ranges. Stream flow was only measured at Jericho Creek and varied depending on season and local weather patterns each year. Generally, there was a higher flow rate in the spring than late summer and fall. Average stream flow measurements for the twenty-eight field events was18.4 cubic feet per second (cfs) and ranged from 0.7 to 43.4 cfs. Overall, volunteers recorded dissolved oxygen levels in the watershed ranging from 5-14 mg/l, which are sufficient to sustain aquatic life. Temperature measurements, used to classify streams as cold, cool or warm water habitats, and which are indicative of the ability of a habitat to sustain aquatic species, were manually recorded at both stations. Maximum instantaneous temperatures were below 25°C for all streams, suggesting they may be cold water streams. Stream transparency measurements indicated good water quality with 100% of measurements less than 10 NTU in both streams.

Volunteer Monitoring

Two Volunteer Stream Monitoring stations have been monitored by four volunteers from 2003 through 2010 in the FX06-Mukwonango River Watershed. Both stations are monitored using Level 1 procedures and are entered into the WAV database (http://www.uwex.edu/erc/wavdb/). On average, stations in the watershed were monitored monthly from May through October for biotic index, flow, dissolved oxygen, instantaneous temperature and transparency. Volunteers collect macroinvertebrates twice a year to determine a biotic index for each stream monitored. Streams are considered in poor quality if biotic index is between 1.0-2.0, fair quality if between 2.1-2.5, and in good quality if the index is between 2.6-3.5. Generally, biotic index values rated streams in the watershed to be in fair to good quality (ranging from 2.3-3.5), except on one field event at Jericho Creek at County Highway LO, CBSM-683299 (Jericho Creek) on 08/03/2005. The lack of stoneflies in the stream during the field event dropped the biotic index to 1.8, indicating poor quality.

Mukwonago River WatershedWater Plans and PartnershipsRead the Watershed Plan

The Nature Conservancy is a private, non-profit conservation organization, whose mission is to preserve the plants, animals, and natural communities that represent the diversity of life on Earth by protecting the lands and waters they need to survive. For centuries, early settlers and their descendents have cared for the lands in the Mukwonago River Watershed, making it one of the highest quality waterways in the state. In 1983, The Nature Conservancy joined that partnership, first protecting and later purchasing the former Milwaukee Boys Club Camp. Today, the Conservancy owns 1,274 acres within the watershed and has helped to protect an additional 360 acres through its work with individual landowners and partner organizations. A group of dedicated volunteers has been vital in helping staff maintain an active science and land management program. The Conservancy owns four preserves in the Mukwonago Watershed, including: Lulu Lake Preserve (438 acres), Crooked Creek Preserve (197 acres), Pickerel Lake Fen (78 acres), and the Newell and Ann Meyer Nature Preserve (374 acres). In addition, the Southeast Fox Partnership Team has taken an active interest in preserving remaining high quality, undeveloped lands and water features in the area. Within the Southeast Fox Basin, the Mukwonago River Watershed has outstanding remaining natural features the partnership considers worthy of preservation. Networking with other interested parties, the partnership anticipates developing a strategy that will preserve these key natural resource features for future generations to study, use and enjoy. In 2006, as part of the Wisconsin Ephemeral Pond Project (WEPP), the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission began intensive mapping to update the digital Wisconsin Wetland Inventory in southeast Wisconsin. Improved mapping methods, applied to recent high-resolution digital imagery, allow the new maps to identify previously unmapped wetlands, including ephemeral ponds. WEPP began monitoring selected ephemeral ponds to characterize the variety of types, their ecological significance, and to develop guidelines for protection and restoration. This project builds on initial mapping efforts, involving citizens in the inventory and monitoring process. This project is being piloted in 2008 in Southeastern Wisconsin’s coastal counties.

Watershed History Note

The Village of Eagle in Waukesha County is located in the Mukwonago River watershed. Eagle's water tower stands on the very place where one of the largest glacial diamonds was found in 1876. The diamond may have been transported to that site by glaciers during one of the Ice Ages. It was found when Charles Woods was digging a well at the summit of what is today called Diamond Hill. Eventually his wife, Clarissa Woods, took it to a jeweler, Samuel B. Boynton from Milwaukee, who thought the stone was a topaz. Boynton offered her one dollar for the stone, but she did not immediately accept the offer. When Boynton finally purchased the stone, he took it to Chicago and had the stone examined by a gemologist and found out it was a rough diamond weighing 15.37 carats and was valued at $700.00. When news leaked out about the stone, Clarissa Woods filed suit on Mr. Boynton, feeling that she had been cheated. The suit between Clarissa Woods and Mr. Boynton lasted for several years. However, Clarissa Woods lost the case. During this time, Boynton sold the diamond to Tiffany's in New York City for $850.00. The diamond remained uncut because they could not prove possession. It remained at Tiffany's until the First World War. Then, J.P. Morgan bought the diamond as a gift for The American Museum of Natural History, in New York City. It was placed in the J.P. Morgan exhibit along with the Star Sapphire of India and the de Long Ruby. On October 29, 1964, the Eagle Diamond became part of the national headlines. A major jewelry theft occurred from the American Museum of Natural History, where 24 stones were stolen from the fourth floor of the museum. The star Sapphire of India (563 carats) and the de Long Ruby and the Eagle Diamond (valued at $25,000 at the time) were taken. The total value of the theft was $410,000.00. Most of the stones were recovered, but the Eagle Diamond disappeared. The Eagle Diamond was not the largest diamond at the American Museum of Natural History, but it was part of one of the most dramatic events in the museum's history.
