Watershed - Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek (WR01)
Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek Watershed

Details

The Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek Watershed covers approximately 135 square miles in Winnebago, Waupaca and Outagamie counties. A small part of the watershed, about 1 percent, is located in Waupaca County. The Winnebago Comprehensive Management Plan (WCMP) rated an 8.2 mile priority strip along the Arrowhead River as high priority for NPS pollution abatement activities. Major problems in this watershed include excessive vegetation, dissolved oxygen standard violations, and critical levels of soil loss. The watershed contributes an estimated 0.5 pounds of phosphorus per acre per year to the Lake Winnebago pool lakes.

Population, Land Use

The east half of the village of Winneconne is the only incorporated community. Unincorporated communities include Allenville, Butte des Morts, Larsen, Medina and Winchester. Approximately 10,200 people live in the watershed (WDOA,1990). The entire watershed is within the Lower Fox River Designated Planning Area. Only 7 percent of the watershed is developed land. Fifty-one percent of the watershed is in agricultural use and 21 percent is wetlands. Undeveloped grasslands and woodlands comprise the remaining 21 percent.

Date  1996

Nonpoint and Point Sources

There are four point source discharges in the watershed: Ridgeway Country Club, Larsen-Winchester Sanitary District, town of Winneconne Sanitary District No.1, and the Dale Sanitary District No. 1.

Ecological Landscapes for Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek Watershed

Ecological Landscapes

The Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek wastershed is located primarily in the Southeast Glacial Plains Ecological Landscape which 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 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.

Date  2010

Wildlife and Habitat

An endangered species of fish, the striped shiner (Notropis chrysocephalus) has been found in the watershed. The creek chubsucker (Erimyzon oblongus), a species now believed to be extirpated in Wisconsin, was previously reported. This species is a candidate for federal endangered species listing.

Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek Watershed At-a-Glance

Impaired Water in Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek Watershed

Wetland Health

There are a number of large wetland areas within the watershed. The Rat River State Wildlife Area accounts for much of the wetland acreage. Other large wetland complexes include the Dale Swamp, the Clark's Bay marsh, and the Arrowhead River marsh. Significant loss of wetlands have occurred over the past 100 years as a result of drainage practices to create more cropland. These areas are normally located on the Zittau - Poy soil types and easily lend themselves to wetland restoration projects. Wetlands serve an important role as groundwater recharge and discharge areas, spawning, rearing, and over-wintering areas for fish and wildlife, flood water storage, and removal and retention of sediment and nutrients contained in upland runoff.

Date  2018

Groundwater

There is presently an abundant supply of groundwater in the watershed. Three aquifer systems supply groundwater to watershed residents; the Upper Cambrian Sandstone aquifer, the Platteville, Decorah, Galena aquifer, and the water table aquifer. The Upper Cambrian Sandstone aquifer is the thickest and most extensive and supplies the largest volume of water. The Platteville, Decorah; Galena aquifer does not supply water as readily as the underlying sandstone, but it is capable of supplying adequate amounts of water to private systems. The water table aquifer is composed of glacial sediments from four different glacial advances. This aquifer also supplies an adequate amount of water for private water systems.

The natural quality of the groundwater in the watershed is, for the most part, very good. Local problems have been reported in the eastern part of the watershed where the Platteville, Decorah, Galena dolomite exists. High sulfate and iron concentrations and excessive hardness are the most frequent complaints. These conditions exist due to the geochemistry of the dolomite formation. Human impacts to the overall quality of the groundwater are evident throughout the watershed. Nitrate contamination above the State enforcement standard of 10 milligrams per liter is a concern.

Butte Des Morts Conservation Club, Inc: Res-Terrell Island Habitat Restoration Project: This project will harden the shores of 4 existing islands within the breakwall project area known as Terrell Island on the south side of Lake Butte des Morts. Nearly 1,200 feet of rock structure will be installed along the windward edges of the islands with extending wings to enhance the aquatic plant community of emergents, floating leaf and submergent plants.

These benefits are expected to occur:

1) Improved water quality , especially clarity in the area adjacent to the structure.
2) Greater areal coverage of aquatic plant growth and the habitat benefits for fish.
3) Enhanced wildlife benefits for waterfowl and shorebirds, reptiles and amphibians.
4) Reduced island erosion.

The Butte des Morts Conservation Club is in partnership with Winnebago County and the DNR on the project. The projected costs are $65,680.

The DNR will be provided with both a paper copy and an electronic copy of the final report. Information will be disseminated to the public as described in the grant application.

Arrowhead River and Daggets Creek WatershedWatershed History Note

The Village of Winneconne is located between the Arrowhead River, which flows into Lake Poygan to the north, and Daggets Creek, which flows into Lake Butte des Morts to the south. The village was officially named in 1851. The settlement of the area, by Yankees, Germans, Norwegians and the Irish, expanded after the 1852 Treaty of Poygan with the Menominee Indians when land west of the Wolf River became available. This created a need for a means of crossing the river. The first crossing was provided by the Indians in canoes. Since then four bridges have spanned the approximately 850 foot distance across the Wolf River. A float bridge was built by J.D. Rush in 1853. It provided an exciting crossing when it sometimes sat beneath the water on a windy day. Tolls were collected to pay for the bridge. A wooden bridge was built to span the river in 1852; later an iron structure replaced it. In 1836 the current drawbridge was opened.
