Watershed - Lower Baraboo River (LW21)
Lower Baraboo River Watershed

Details

The Lower Baraboo River watershed lies in eastern Sauk County and western Columbia County and includes the portion of the Baraboo River from Baraboo to the Wisconsin River. The watershed has two stream flow gauging stations in operation; one located on Devil's Lake and one on the Baraboo River near the city of Baraboo. These stations, owned by the USGS, are used to keep continuous measure of the flow in select streams throughout the United States. Broad-leaf deciduous forest covers a slightly greater percentage of land than agriculture in the watershed, although agriculture is the dominant land use. Dairying and large muck farms are the primary agricultural activities. Wetlands and grasslands also cover a good portion of the watershed. Dams have historically been a major impairment in the watershed. The impoundments created by these dams increased siltation behind the structures and warmed the water. In addition, these dams were an obstacle to fish migration. These dams, however, have since been removed. With the removal of the final dam, the Linen Mill Dam, in October of 2001, the Baraboo River is now the longest mainstream stretch of restored river in the country.

Population, Land Use

Overall population in the watershed for 2000 was estimated to be over 20,000 people. The two main municipalities in the watershed are the cities of Baraboo and Portage.

Date  2002

Nonpoint and Point Sources

Other issues that affect resources in the watershed include nonpoint sources of pollution, atrazine contamination of groundwater sources, hydrologic modification of streams and exotic and invasive species. An atrazine prohibition area is located in the area bordered to the north by the Baraboo River, to the west by Intestates 90/94 and to the east and south by the Wisconsin River. In the watershed, the cities of Baraboo and Portage discharge to the Baraboo River and the Wisconsin River, respectively. Other point source discharge permittees are the Ho-Chunk Nations and J&L Oil, both of which discharge to groundwater. Teel Plastics is the only industrial discharges in the watershed and discharges to the Baraboo River.

Ecological Landscapes for Lower Baraboo River Watershed

Ecological Landscapes

The Lower Baraboo River Watershed is located in both the Western Coulee and Ridges Ecological Landscape and the Central Sand Hills Ecological Landscape. The Western Coulee and Ridges Ecological Landscape in southwestern and west central Wisconsin is characterized by its highly eroded, driftless topography and relatively extensive forested landscape. Soils are silt loams (loess) and sandy loams over sandstone residuum over dolomite. Several large rivers including the Wisconsin, Mississippi, Chippewa, Kickapoo and Black flow through or border the Ecological Landscape. Historical vegetation consisted of southern hardwood forests, oak savanna, scattered prairies, and floodplain forests and marshes along the major rivers. With Euro-American settlement, most of the land on ridgetops and valley bottoms was cleared of oak savanna, prairie, and level forest for agriculture. The steep slopes between valley bottom and ridgetop, unsuitable for raising crops, grew into oak-dominated forests after the ubiquitous presettlement wildfires were suppressed. Current vegetation is a mix of forest (40%), agriculture, and grassland with some wetlands in the river valleys. The primary forest cover is oak-hickory (51%) dominated by oak species and shagbark hickory. Maple-basswood forests (28%), dominated by sugar maple, basswood and red maple, are common in areas that were not subjected to repeated presettlement wildfires. Bottomland hardwoods (10%) are common in the valley bottoms of major rivers and are dominated by silver maple, ashes, elms, cottonwood, and red maple. Relict conifer forests including white pine, hemlock and yellow birch are a rarer natural community in the cooler, steep, north slope microclimates. The Central Sand Hills Ecological Landscape is located in central Wisconsin at the eastern edge of what was once Glacial Lake Wisconsin. The landforms in this Ecological Landscape are a series of glacial moraines that were later partially covered by glacial outwash. The area is characterized by a mixture of farmland, woodlots, wetlands, small kettle lakes, and cold water streams, all on sandy soils. The mosaic of glacial moraine and pitted outwash throughout this Ecological Landscape has given rise to extensive wetlands in the outwash areas, and the headwaters of coldwater streams that originate in glacial moraines. The growing season is long enough for agriculture but the sandy soils limit agricultural productivity somewhat. Historic upland vegetation consisted of oak-forest, oak savanna, and tallgrass prairie. Fens were common in this Ecological Landscape and occurred along with wet-mesic prairie, wet prairie, and rare coastal plain marshes. Current vegetation is composed of more than one-third agricultural crops, and almost 20% grasslands with smaller amounts of open wetland, open water, shrubs, barren, and urban areas. The major forested type is oak-hickory, with smaller amounts of white-red-jack pine, maple-basswood, lowland hardwoods, aspen-birch, and spruce-fir. The Lower Baraboo River Watershed has a variety of good quality habitats and rare plant communities that are listed on the state's Natural Heritage Inventory, (NHI), kept by the Bureau of Endangered Resources. Of particular interest in the watershed is the north slope of the Baraboo Range, a Precambrian inlier set of hills. These hills are heavily wooded and have unique sub-ecosystems containing rare plant species. Other interesting communities are: cedar glade, dry cliff, dry prairie, glaciere talus, mesic prairie, moist cliff, northern dry forest, northern dry-mesic forest, oak opening, pine relict, calcareous fen, emergency aquatic, floodplain forest, forested seep, oxbox lake, lake-shallow, soft, seepage, northern wet forest, shrub-carr, sand meadow, southern dry forest, southern dry-mesic forest, southern sedge meadow, springs and spring runs, soft, streams-fast hard, streams-fast, soft, cold, stream-fast, soft, warm, stream-soft, slow, warm, alder thicket and wet prairie.

Recreational Opportunities

The 5,043-acre Pine Island Wildlife Area is in the watershed and offers opportunities for canoeing and boating on the Wisconsin River in addition to dog training, hiking, and fishing. Devil's Lake State Park is also in the watershed.

Date  2002

Wildlife and Habitat

The watershed is also home for a variety of rare plant and animal species including; 10 species of birds, 7 species of butterflies, 5 species of dragonflies, 7 species of fish, 2 species of mayflies, 6 species of mussels, 42 plant species, 2 species of snakes, 1 species of turtle, 4 species of mammals, 1 species of lizard and 1 species of snail. These plants and animals are also listed on the state's Natural Heritage Inventory (NHI).

Impaired Water in Lower Baraboo River Watershed
River and Stream QualityAll Waters in Watershed

The ditching and draining of wetlands to create muck farms has had a significant impact on the habitat and water quality of surface waters. These farms not only modify the hydrologic regime in a stream, but they contribute large volumes of nutrients and sediments to streams. The watershed is not ranked with respect to nonpoint source pollution priorities.

Aquatic Invasive Species

The exotic and invasive garlic mustard plant is also causing some problems at Devil’s Lake State Park and in the Baraboo Bluffs. Garlic mustard is a threat to woodland areas because of its ability to displace native vegetation and can shade out tree and shrub seedlings. Another exotic, Eurasian water milfoil, has been found and is known to cause problems on the lake.

Friends Of Devil'S Lake State Park: Lmi-Devil'S Lake Bottom Withdrawal Pipe Alterations: The Friends of Devil's Lake State Park propose this project to reconstruct the siphon pipe system at Devil's Lake State Park, Sauk County, by lowering the portion of the siphon that is above the ordinary high water mark (OHWM) lake level so that the pipe will flow as a gravity feed flow system whenever the lake level is above the OHWM. This entails digging up about 900' of the pipe, and lowering the highest point. An additional butterfly flow valve will be installed to provide control of the pipe for safety and operational purposes. Deliverables of this project will be a brief final report documenting that the project was completed, including photos of the project during construction.

Special condition: The Sponsor agrees to abide by the "Conditions of Approval" contained in the Chapter 30 Regulated Activities manual code approval issued by the Department of Natural Resources on 6/6/06.

Lower Baraboo River WatershedWatershed History Note

The City of Baraboo, located in the Lower Baraboo River Watershed, is the home of the Circus World Museum. The Ringling Bros. Circus was founded in Baraboo, WI, in 1884 by five brothers: Al, Otto, Charles, John and Alf T. Ringling. Ringlingville was the name for the original Ringling Bros circus winter quarters in Baraboo. The buildings, standing along the north bank of the Baraboo River, date from 1897 through 1918 and are the largest surviving group of original circus structures in North America. There are also remains of a footbridge which employees took to cross the river in the winter. The world-famous circus wintered in Baraboo for 34 years until 1918, the year before it merged with the Barnum & Bailey Show to become the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Combined Shows. The entire circus area has been declared a National Historic Landmark Site. As excitement of the great railroad circuses began to fade, John M. Kelley, who for 33 years had been the Ringlings' personal attorney, envisioned a place where the golden era of circus life could be preserved. At his retirement in 1954, Kelley incorporated Circus World as a historical and educational facility. Following state-wide fundraising efforts, the Circus World was deeded debt-free to the state and opened to the public July 1, 1959. The original site, which began on less than one acre, included the Ringling Camel House and Ring Barn, which were both acquired in 1957. Today Circus World encompasses approximately 64 acres of land with approximately 30 permanent structures, including four original winter quarters buildings and the original Ringling Bros. Circus Train complex.
