Book Description
The Andalusia Refuge area is located within the Upper Mississippi Wildlife and Fish Refuge between river miles 462 and 463 in Pool 16. This area, located 1 mile north of Illinois City, is currently managed as a waterfowl refuge by the Illinois Department of Conservation. The purpose of this appendix is to present the development and evaluation of proposed improvements which will provide a water control structure system. This system will provide a moist soil management unit with controlled water levels, reduce sedimentation into the refuge area, and divert upland sedimentation from the refuge area. Approximately 1.55 square miles of overland area will drain into the moist soil management unit. The elevation area and capacity curves for the project are shown on plate A-1. (kt).

Book Description
This statement concerns a proposal by the Rock Island District, Corps of Engineers (NCR), to perform a work pursuant to the Environmental Management Program (EMP) - Habitat Rehabilitation and Enhancement Program (HREP) at Andalusia Refuge, Rock Island County, Illinois. This work involves dredging, excavation, levee construction, concrete construction, electrical work, and rock placement. An Environmental Assessment addressing effects of the proposed project has been prepared for public review. Project objectives are to: enhance migratory waterfowl habitat by providing adequate vegetation and reliable loafing and resting areas; retard the loss of aquatic habitat by reducing sedimentation into the Refuge and Dead Slough; enhance aquatic habitat in Dead Slough by channel excavation and by providing year-round water access to the river. It is proposed that the following information be collected to evaluate performance of the project: summer and winter measurement of dissolved oxygen in Dead Slough; soundings of Dead Slough and fish access channel excavations; and sedimentation measurements with in the MSMU. Waterfowl survey data, vegetation inventories, and fishery survey data from Dead Slough may be collected by other agencies but will not be used for project performance evaluation. The District Engineer has reviewed the project outputs and determined that implementation of the identified plan is justified and in the Federal interest.
