Sustainable Rivers Program at Lake Red Rock
As part of the Sustainable Rivers Program, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Iowa Department of Natural Resources and Iowa State University made adjustments at Lake Red Rock over the past few years to simulate seasonal river flow fluctuations that would have naturally occurred on the Des Moines River prior to construction of the reservoir. To determine the impacts of the intentional changes on fish populations in the river system, Graduate Assistant Erik Griffen from Iowa State University conducted a study using Lake Red Rock's Adaptive Management and Monitoring Plan. This video highlights Griffen's work and the positive outcome the flow changes have made on fish reproduction in the river...

The Native had respect for the River, white man tried everything in their power to control it.
Nice Information!!!
Thank you
There's a fossil bed by shueyville and 380
Great work
Might apply for lock and dam operator trainee in PA. Is the salary negotiable? What is the pay range like? I have 4 years military and 10 years state. Thanks for any information
Very informative!
so cute and educational
A+ report
Hope you are well. Your content is really amazing, but channel growth is very poor... Just need to customize your channel now (setup, optimize with high-quality SEO). Especially need SEO services.
The entire Midwest was badly damaged from that awful flood.
You communists need to remove the fee at the bulgers hollow boat ramp. All you did was dump a load of gravel. You can take that gravel and stuff it. Communists.
You communists need to stay away from our river. You dumped a load of gravel at the Bulgers Hollow boat ramp and slapped a sign making people pay to use it. Nobody is using it. They had their annual fishing tournament which is always a big deal, there were two trucks in the parking lot this year. Nobody can afford your shit and the old guys that use this ramp don't have smart phones. Go home communists. Go get a real job.
Wow! That's something I'd like to see, locks and dam working. I've seen a smaller one for barges one wide. I don't like that, it scares the fish away. On the big river it seems to attract fish though, especially wing dams and the backwaters. I hope to see more of it, lots to see along it's shore's.
Thank you so much for giving water to those who need it and now we are asking for water for our beautiful lake Mead and Powell. I'm sure you've heard of us here in California and Nevada we are dying very quickly and we definitely need water to help keep the animals and people alive here in our beautiful States thank you so much
Terrific video! Captures the value of the program well.
do you guys work weekends?
Remove dam impoundments starting at pool 26 and work north. Hire river rats and naturalists to clean garbage from river. We do it now for free. Remove railroads on both sides of river so there's no more pollution and derailment problems. Remove barges and department of commerce from equation. Hire biologists not wardens. This river used to be full of communities, commercial fishermen, gardeners, river rats and so much more but due to poor policies and leadership we are in a dire situation. The river has filled up with sediment and now flooding is more intense. The dams changed the composition and abundance of plants. The government agencies failed. Good luck
You cant develop habitat by dredging sledge from river and making tall islands. That's insanse
hi i exist and this is homework
Nicely done.
What a fine documentary. I'm from Illinois and I really appreciate your work. Thanks!

If you reconstructed the lock walls then why did you not add floating mooring bits to it
The 10’ (maximum) lift at LaGrange was considered to too low to include floating mooring bits into the new construction. Lines are managed from the top of the wall.
@@USACERockIsland is there a lift height specifics for floating mooring bits? Dashields has a 10 ft lift and they have floaters on the Ohio
@@rivercap1986 There is not a current standard across all locks, only a general operation of our locks within the Rock Island District.
What is the point of one tainter gate?
The single 84-foot Tainter gate at Peoria Lock and Dam is only a portion of the 570-foot dam used to maintain the 9-foot navigation channel on the Illinois Waterway. The other 432 feet is made up of 108 wicket gates which can be folded down into the river, when water levels permit, to allow for "open pass" navigation around the lock. The Tainter gate is used to control the river's flow when the wickets are raised and allows the Corps to maintain the 9-foot channel when water levels drop.
But how much of the river flow are you adjusting with it, because with a couple feet couldn't the wickets just be decided to be raised or lowered?
Why didn't they show it being lowered in the lock? Coud be going through a garden gate, lol.
Not allowed to film in the lock….
Wow it's so beautiful. like. I posted a video of a small passenger ship in the north of Russia. pleasant viewing.
A beautiful addition except going under the big train bridge. Thank you for the trails around Ft. Dodge.
Yes, just heard about this and rode it today. Tried to stay on sunkissed meadows trail and connect upt to this. They stop just shy of each other. Seems a shame not to connect up the trails. Great addition though.
@@projectdaaltaran the train people at this will not let them connect to each other. Oppppps.Just maybe it’ll get done done. Yeah.
Trumpeter Swans visit the Alton area in the winter too.
What about whirlpools, how dangerous to navigation are they?
In the modern world of motorized vessels and a system of locks and dams, whirlpools are more a creature of myths and legend. Eddy walls still exist and can have hazardous effects upon commercial navigation. Today in the modern world lockage during high water conditions would probably rank the highest/greatest danger to safe navigation of the Mississippi River.
Do you have underwater welding footage? I think the people need to see that.
The view underwater in the Illinois River does not allow for underwater welding footage as it is extremely murky and lot of the work is done by feel.
That makes complete sense. I didn't even consider that.

Awesome. I'm gonna check it out!
I kayaked the Mississippi the summer of 2019, amazing trip! amazing things to see!
Where did you put in ? And where did you take out? And how long did it take?
Should be shown to every school child.
I remember the 2016 floods that was crazy it rained for three days straight and i barely saw my mom awake she worked nights at a shelter i think she worked at two shelters one on LSU campus and the rest of the time at a red cross shelter in the downtown river center(i live in Baton Rouge)
we live RIGHT BY a levie so pretty.
some mothers will do anything to get away from their own children
@@jazrobean1 Uh what are you talking about? She didn't do it to get away she did it because she was literally a MA with paperwork and management skills she actually helped resuscitate this old lady that collapsed in the bathroom.
Matt Zehr ---- This may or may not interest you . I have contacted everybody -- no one cares about street storm water soil erosion into a large creek (the Protected Catfish Creek Watershed ) . Please watch my RUclips video ruclips.net/video/-OO6i5Aents/видео.html I need help . Thank you .
RUclips's algorithm is so fucked I looked up history documentary 3 times was all about slavery I know it's part of the past but that's depressing just wanna know something I can use in the future
Here is a link to one of my videos showing my pond with functional lock chamber. ruclips.net/video/HM8NakYOjlw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Gic0OKnrZ7I/видео.html
Are there any other videos or photos or plans for the gate and actuator? I am attempting to motorized the gates on my scale lock chamber. My plan was a straight internal rotating actuator but I would like to learn more about the hinged actuator I see in this video. Thanks, .Jim

They are here, happily running lucrative casinos. Why, did you think they left for Canada?
