165 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N While Chapter 4 identi f es types of best management practices that can be used in the Dead River watershed, this chapter presents speci f c recommended action items developed jointly by the watershed stakeholders, Lake County Stormwater Management Commission, and the consultant planning team. This chapter begins by describing the implementation partners (Section 5.1), followed by recommended action items that presented in three sections.
The Programmatic Action Plan (5.2) provides general recommendations that should be applied watershed-wide and may also apply to large sites such as the W aukegan Regional Airport and the Zion Nuclear Plant. The Site Specif c Action Plan (5.3) presents detailed recommendations for specif c problem areas within the watershed as identi f ed during the inventory and assessment. The Information and Education Plan (5.4) specif cally identif es the recommended actions that will likely need more outreach and education in order to be implemented.
As a reminder, the eleven most important recommendations are summarized as follows:
- 1.
Stabilize streambanks and ravine slopes to reduce erosion, protect property and infrastructure, improve water quality, and improve habitat.
- 2.
Restore and manage stream corridors by restoring native riparian buf fers, reducing the density of trees, removing excessive debris, and stabilizing the stream bed with practices that also enhance habitat.
- 3. Manage, retrof t, and stabilize the stormwater management system including detention basins and culverts, with focused attention on stormwater discharge points (pipes and ditches), to reduce runof f rate and volume and to improve water quality in the streams and Lake Michigan.
- 4.
Preserve and restore priority green infrastructure areas to provide natural surface water storage areas, provide space for installing best management practices, and preserve an ecologically functioning network of open space, wetlands, streams, and natural areas as part of an interconnected system.
- 5.
Manage and restore watershed natural areas including wetlands, former wetlands / hydric soil areas, and especially Lyons W oods Forest Preserve and Illinois Beach State Park.
5 prioritized action plan
- 6.
Develop positive and creative new uses for the Zion Nuclear Power Plant and W aukegan Harbor areas, ensuring that these uses are compatible with protecting and improving watershed resources and Lake Michigan.
- 7. Remediate existing f ood problems and prevent future f ooding by reducing stormwater runoff and preserving areas for surface water storage and absorption such as f oodplains, depressional storage areas, and wetlands, which also provide water quality improvement benef ts.
- 8.
Use better stormwater management, conservation design, and low impact development practices for new and existing development that slows, f lters, inf ltrates, cools, and cleanses stormwater runof f, especially in Critical Subbasins. This includes source controls and lot level best management practices such as vegetated swales, naturalized detention basins, rain gardens, stream buffers, f lter strips, and reduced use of lawn chemicals and fertilizers.
- 9.
Modify and use planning and development standards, policies, and capital improvement plans and budgets to protect and enhance water quality.
- 10. Provide public education and outreach to enhance understanding and apprciation of watershed resources and problems, to provide solutions, and to provide opportunities for people to get involved in watershed improvement activities.
- 11. Monitor and evaluate watershed plan implementation and physical watershed conditions to guage progress towards watershed goals.
5.1 IMPLEMENTATION PARTNERS Throughout the prioritized action plan tables and narrative, responsible parties are suggested for taking the lead or providing a supporting role in plan implementation.
This section presents the responsible parties as well as a brief description of their role. Where the roles are identif ed within tables, parties indicated with bold lettering are the lead party, and non-bold parties providing support. Table 5.1provides a concise reference or key for reviewing the programmatic and site specif c action plan tables that follow.
166 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N 5 prioritized action plan Beach Park Drainage District (BPDD)
The Beach Park Drainage District maintains drainage ways and addresses local drainage problems within a boundary that covers portions of Beach Park and small portions of other communities as well. The drainage district f rst tries to address drainage and f ooding problems that may cause damage to property and/or structures and then removes debris from stream channels as a secondary goal.
- Thus, issues related to channel and stormwater management infrastructure should include the BPDD as an implementation partner.
Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP)
Formerly the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission (NIPC) and the Chicago Area Transportation Study (CATS), CMAP provides technical and planning assistance to watershed protection groups. CMAP has developed model ordinances tailored to the region for stormwater management, sediment control, streams and wetlands, and f oodplains. CMAP also offers technical assistance and training opportunities to local governments and watershed groups and helps local governments apply for state and federal funding programs.
Corporate and Business Landowners (CBL)
The active participation of CBLs in the planning process can lead to signif cant positive impacts on the quality of the Dead River watershed. Businesses can become involved by retrof tting existing facilities, managing their grounds, roof runoff, and parking lots to reduce runoff volume and pollutant loadings, and sponsoring watershed events. With an up front commitment from the CBL community, new development can also be designed to minimize runoff and pollutant loadings.
Developers & Homebuilders (DH)
The practices of developers can signi f cantly impact a watershed. Developers should be encouraged or required to employ sustainable development techniques such as conservation subdivision development and other practices described in the Best Management Practice Toolbox.
Homebuilders should use BMPs during the construction process, especially those related to soil erosion and sedimentation control. Failure to use BMPs, or improper use, can lead to soil erosion and other pollutant discharges.
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
FEMA is the principal federal agency involved in f ood mitigation and f ood disaster response. Among its duties, FEMA is responsible for the National Flood Insurance program, helps municipalities develop and enforce f oodplain ordinances, develops f oodplain maps, and administers funding for f ood mitigation plans and projects.
Golf Courses (GC)
Golf courses are important potential sites for the use of BMPs, primarily due to their location along the stream and their potential impact as sources of pollutants and their contribution as a green infrastructure element. Golf courses can help reduce pollutant loadings, especially nutrients, as well as runoff volume by incorporating BMPs into their golf course management programs.
Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR)
Several off ces within IDNR provide services that will be key to the implementation of the Dead River watershed plan for issues related to water resource management, habitat protection and management, wildlife management, invasive species control, wetland management, and hunting and f shing permitting.
The IDNR manages Illinois Beach State Park and is responsible for issues relating to water
, hydrology and hydrologic connections to Lake Michigan, natural resources, wildlife, wetlands, and beach management in the park as well as North Point Marina.

- The Off ce of Capital Development (OCD) administers state and federal grants for open space programs.
- The Off ce of Scientif c Research and Analysis (OSRA) conducts research and data collection provides this information to planners and formulates natural resource protection policy.
IDNR Coastal Management Program (CMP)
The IDNR is the lead state agency responsible for establishing the Illinois Coastal Management Program (CMP), which is funded through the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). If established, the program will support and coordinate partnerships among local, state and federal agencies, and local organizations, share information on coastal care ef forts, and preserve, restore, and where possible, enhance coastal resources in Illinois. Upon CMP approval, Illinois will be eligible to receive approximately $2 million/year, which will fund a grant program to implement local projects. Local and state agencies and non-pro f t organizations would be eligible to apply for and receive funds.
Potential projects that may receive funding under the CMP program include beach access and recreation, waterfront development, shore and bluf f stabilization, wetland and natural resource protection and restoration, coastal waters protection (i.e., water pollution control), erosion control, and education and interpretation.
Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT)
IDOT is responsible for the planning, construction, and maintenance of portions of the transportation network that covers the Dead River watershed. Incorporation of best management practices and sustainable management measures into IDOT projects can help lead to improvements in the environmental quality of the watershed.
Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA)
In Illinois, IEMA is the state agency responsible for f ood and disaster planning, emergency response, and hazard mitigation. IEMA works with local governments on f ood mitigation plans and provides operational support during f oods. IEMA also administers FEMA-funded programs in the state, including f ood mitigation grant programs.
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) Bureau of Water Under the federal Clean W ater Act and state legislation, IEPA is responsible for the protection of the state s water resources and ensuring that Illinois' rivers, streams and lakes will support all uses for which they are designated including protection of aquatic life, recreation and drinking water supplies. Several IEPA activities are important to this plan:
Monitoring: IEPA oversees data collection at various sites (rivers, streams, lakes, etc.) across the state, including the Dead River watershed. The Illinois Water Quality Report (305(b)) summarizes these monitoring efforts.
Funding: IEPA administers several state and federal grant programs. A primary example is Section 319 funding under the Clean W ater Act, which helps local governments, nonpro f t entities, and numerous other state, federal, and local partners to reduce nonpoint source pollution through technical and f nancial support.
Regulation: IEPA regulates point and nonpoint source pollution discharges into the state s waters through regulatory and non-regulatory programs.
Lake County The Dead River f ows through Lake County, which plays a role in land use planning, development, natural resource protection, and drainage system management in the unincorporated areas of the watershed. W orking with the County and its public works, health, and transportation departments, can help ensure that the Dead River enjoys responsible, sustainable land use planning, road and sewer maintenance, and public health policies.
Lake County Forest Preserve District (LCFPD)
The Forest Preserve District of Lake County owns and manages a number of acres of green infrastructure / open space within the Dead River watershed. Issues related to the protection and management of these and potential future
169 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N FPD holdings will rely in part on the FPD.
Lake County Health Department (LCHD)
The LCHD Lakes Management Unit provides technical expertise essential to the management and protection of Lake County surface waters. The goal of the LMU is to monitor the quality of the county s surface water in order to maintain or improve water quality and alleviate nuisance conditions, promote healthy and safe lake conditions, and protect and improve ecological diversity. To this end, the LDHC monitors the watershed lakes and has also begun monitoring water quality conditions to provide data on stream health and quality. The LCHD is also responsible for septic system management programs and well testing and monitoring.
Lake County Stormwater Management Commission (SMC)
SMC's mission is to coordinate the stormwater activities of over 90 jurisdictions throughout the county. SMC provides technical assistance, local knowledge and problem-solving skills to coordinate f ood damage reduction, f ood hazard mitigation, watershed planning, water quality enhancements and natural resource protection projects and programs. The 2002 Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan Update guides agency programs and projects. Major components of the Plan include: a) implementation of countywide minimum standards for new development (W atershed Development Ordinance); b) projects to reduce existing f ooding and water pollution problems; c) rehabilitation of the existing drainage system; d) f ood hazard mitigation; e) interjurisdictional coordination and technical assistance; f) public information.
Lake Michigan W atershed Ecosystem Partnership (LMWEP)
LMWEP is a public-private cooperative of watershed stakeholders formed in 2005 to preserve, protect, and enhance local natural systems and integrate them into the life and future of the community through coordination and cooperation. The partnership can help with advocacy,
management of watershed projects, grant applications and review, and general coordination of watershed activities.
The LMWEP includes the involvement of the Great Lakes Alliance, which is described below.
Lake Michigan / Great Lakes Management Organizations and Programs (LMGLO)
The Great Lakes Alliance focuses its policy, management, and restoration programs on water quality
, water conservation, habitat recovery, land use, and education and outreach. The Great Lakes Regional Collaboration, which includes the EPA-led federal agency task force, the Great Lakes states, local communities, tribes, non-governmental organizations, and other interests in the Great Lakes region, is focused on restoring and protecting the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes Initiative is a plan agreed upon by EPA and the Great Lake states to restore the health of the Great Lakes.
Municipalities (all departments) (M)
Municipalities (i.e., local elected of f cials and local agency staff) have the principal responsibility for land use and development planning, establishing legislative and administrative policies, adopting ordinances and resolutions, setting zoning standards, establishing the annual budget, appropriating funds, and setting tax rates. There are also opportunities to make others aware of the watershed management planning process through local government newsletters and presentations at board meetings, which are often televised on local cable television networks.
Municipalities are therefore crucial to watershed protection efforts. By partnering with municipalities and encouraging the adoption of sustainable zoning and development practices, a watershed protection group can check the increase of water quality impairments. Municipalities are also a key part of any watershed protection strategy because they are responsible for the enforcement of local land use and development ordinances.
The National Great Rivers Research & Education Center (NGRREC)
The NGRREC's RiverW atch program, formerly under the Illinois DNR, relies on a volunteer base to monitor, collect and record stream, lake, wetland, and coastal data for the state database. It is also a valuable educational resource that can be used to educate others about watershed issues and concerns.
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) / Soil
170 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N 5 prioritized action plan and Water Conservation Districts (SWCD)
NRCS and SWCD provide technical expertise and education on conservation, development, management, and wise use of natural resources to landowners and land managers, county and local governments, and local organizations.
Areas of expertise include streambank stabilization and soil erosion/ sediment control, wetland and habitat restoration, community planning, environmental education, agricultural conservation, water quality protection, nonpoint source pollution, stream health, conservation planning, and natural resource maps and reports. NRCS and SWCD also administer several cost-share programs targeted to water quality, wetland restoration, and other watershed priorities.
As part of its watershed protection effort, NRCS administers the USDA Watershed Program (under Public Law 83-566).
The purpose of the program is to assist federal, state, and local agencies; local government sponsors; tribal governments; and other program participants in protecting watersheds from damage caused by erosion, f oodwater, and sediment; restoring damaged watersheds; conserving and developing water and land resources; and solving natural resource and related economic problems on a watershed basis. The program provides technical and f nancial assistance to local people or project sponsors, builds partnerships, and requires local and state funding contributions.
Parks and Recreation Districts (PD)
Park and recreation districts often control a large amount of open space in a watershed and maintain recreational facilities and parks. Parks also contain many recreational opportunities and trails, several bordering the Dead River.
Partnerships with local park districts can help ensure the preservation of open space while also facilitating recreational and other community opportunities that can help increase support for watershed protection efforts.
Private Residential Landowners and Homeowners Associations (PRL)
The activities of residential landowners, often unknowingly,
can have a signif cant impact of the quality of a watershed.
Practices such as excess lawn fertilization, connection of downspouts to the sewer system, or destruction of riparian buffers can be signi f cant sources of nonpoint pollution.
Watershed protection ef forts should educate residents on the consequences of their actions and present alternatives.
More positively, political pressure from local residents on municipal or county off cials can lead to increased emphasis on watershed protection. And many local residents play important roles in watershed planning and protection efforts.
North Shore Sanitary District (NSSD)
The North Shore Sanitary District is a municipal government that provides wastewater treatment service for watershed communities. The NSSD maintains the sanitary sewer system in the watershed, which in some cases follows the alignment of the stream channel, and has also begun a stream monitoring protocol for Kellogg Creek and Dead River watersheds.
Townships (T)
While unincorporated townships generally play a secondary role in watershed protection, they often have responsibility for road upkeep and occasionally sponsor drainage system improvement projects. The use of BMPs by townships, especially for road maintenance, can help improve water quality within the watershed.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)
USACE plays a major role in wetland protection and regulation through Section 404 of the Clean W ater Act, which requires USACE to administer permit applications for alterations to wetlands. The USACE Chicago district has also established a W etlands Restoration Fund, which may be available to the Dead River watershed communities.
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)
USDAs Farm Services Agency (FSA) has several programs that support watershed protection and restoration ef forts.
Under the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), farmers receive annual rental payments, cost sharing, and technical assistance to plant vegetation for land they put into reserve for 10 to 15 years. The Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) targets state and federal funds to achieve shared environmental goals of national and state signi f cance.
The program uses f nancial incentives to encourage farmers and ranchers to voluntarily protect soil, water, and wildlife
171 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N resources. The Grassland Reserve Program (GRP) uses 30-year easements and rental agreements to improve management of, restore, or conserve up to 2 million acres of private grasslands. The Conservation Security Program (CSP) is a voluntary program that provides f nancial and technical assistance to promote the conservation and improvement of soil, water, air, energy, plant and animal life, and other conservation purposes on tribal and private working lands.
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)
The USEPA oversees the environmental protection ef forts of the IEPA and is the ultimate source for Section 319 and other environmental improvement programs. Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, which regulates the dredging and f lling of wetlands, is jointly administered by USEP A and the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
The USFWS provides technical assistance to local watershed protection groups. It also administers several grant and cost-share programs that fund wetland and aquatic habitat restoration. The USFWS also administers the federal Endangered Species Act and supports a program called Endangered Species Program Partners, which features formal or informal partnerships for protecting endangered and threatened species and helping them to recover. These partnerships include federal partners as well as states, tribes, local governments, nonpro f t organizations, and individual landowners.
Solid Waste Management Many local governments have solid waste programs that address the disposal of solid waste and yard waste.
They might also handle the recycling, illegal dumping, and household hazardous waste programs.
Waukegan Harbor Citizens Advisory Group (CAG)
The W aukegan Harbor Citizens Advisory Group was organized in 1990 to help citizens and business leaders concerned about the harbor environment develop plans to identify and clean up contaminated harbor properties.
The CAG is composed of business, f shing, recreation, environmental, government, and other interested groups and individuals. They formed a partnership with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to develop the Waukegan Harbor Remedial Action Plan, detailing use impairments and how these impairments could be restored through a cooperative ef fort. The W aukegan CAG has been instrumental in obtaining cooperation from local parties involving additional investigations. Groundwater monitoring from local parties is being conducted in an area south of the harbor. The CAG helped obtain access from private businesses and federal grant money to install the monitoring wells. A federally funded 319 grant has been released to the Waukegan CAG to develop a watershed plan to reduce nonpoint source pollution and improve water quality in the Waukegan River watershed.
Watershed Planning Committee (WPC)
The WPC, composed of watershed stakeholders, organizes, coordinates, and advises project partners on watershed planning methods and issues, demonstration project selection and provides technical assistance. The WPC also is responsible for helping coordinate the implementation of the watershed plan.
5.2 PROGRAMMATIC ACTION PLAN To supplement the W atershed Best Management Practice Toolbox, 77 programmatic action recommendations were identif ed that apply generally throughout the watershed, including measures related to stream and riparian corridors, water quality and stormwater management, drainage, and retention, planning and development standards, green infrastructure, natural areas, land management, f ood management, and coordination. This Programmatic Action Plan should be considered as general guidance for all watershed stakeholders and plan implementers. Parties that have lead and supporting responsibility for implementing the Programmatic Action Plan are identif ed for each action recommendation. This Programmatic Action Plan includes remedial, preventative, regulatory, and maintenance action items that are applicable throughout the watershed.
An expanded programmatic action plan is included in Appendix G.
USEPA watershed-based plan element #3:
best management practices and critical areas where those practices are needed (also see Appendices G and H).
172 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N 5 prioritized action plan 5.2.1 STREAMS AND RIPARIAN CORRIDORS Stabilization, restoration, and management of the stream channel, streambank, and riparian corridor are needed throughout the watershed to improve and protect water quality, maintain f oodplain functions, and reduce property loss caused by erosion. Of particular importance are remediating the impairments and problems that were identi f ed during the watershed inventory and assessment and preserving the bene f cial characteristics of the stream channel such as healthy stream substrates. Streambank and ravine erosion is threatening property, damaging infrastructure, and degrading water quality and habitat. This problem includes signif cant erosion around and near stormwater outfall and discharge points and hydraulic structures. The most severe streambank erosion problems in terms of threats to property damage are those where the ravine slope is also the streambank. Aquatic and riparian habitat are also in need of restoration, including restoring instream habitat such as pools and riff es, removing excessive debris from the stream channel, establishing naturalized streambanks with native plants, and managing stream corridors by restoring native riparian buffers and reducing the density of trees.
Presently, private landowners, including golf courses, are responsible for maintaining the stream as if crosses their property or f ows along a property line.
This includes all aspects of management and maintenance, such as debris removal, invasive species control, streambank stabilization, and management of private stormwater outfall pipes. Since problems within the stream and riparian corridor can be the result of land use and other activities upstream of a particular property, it is in everyone's best interest to help ensure that this plan is implemented watershed-wide.
Exceptions to private landowner responsibility exist where the stream passes through public land, including Illinois Department of Natural Resources holdings, or areas within the jurisdiction of the Beach Park Drainage District, which are the responsibility of these public entities. Municipalities have primary responsibility for land use and development decisions within their jurisdiction, including the allowable quantity and quality of stormwater discharge, which dramatically affects the quality of the stream corridor. Municipalities also are responsible, in part, for maintaining drainage system infrastructure, which includes most stormwater discharge points. Within the Beach Park Drainage District boundary,
fees assessed to property owners are used to repair and maintain Bull Creek as a drainage system.
The Drainage District is primarily concerned with conveyance and f ooding issues, but are also responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the channel within a 50-foot easement on each streambank. The Lake County Stormwater Management Commission addresses stormwater management issues on a watershed basis throughout the county and can help coordinate multi-jurisdictional stormwater management projects, including those within the stream channel, and provide technical assistance to parties implementing these recommendations. The Illinois and Lake County Departments of Transportation are responsible for maintaining some culverts and bridges along the stream corridor.
Programmatic actions for streams and riparian corridors are listed in Table 5.2.

174 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N 5 prioritized action plan 5.2.2 WATER QUALITY AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT As described in the introduction and the watershed inventory, stormwater runoff is one of the primary sources of water quality impairment. The causes and sources of water quality problems in the Dead River watershed are primarily urban in nature. These problems are the result of many years of modif cation of the watershed landscape as it changed from natural to agricultural to urban. These changes have included modi f cation of the stream channel, f oodplain, wetlands, riparian corridor, and other water resource-related landscape features. Other changes are the result of the increased watershed impervious cover (e.g., paving, concrete, rooftops) that has led to an increase in the volume and rate of runof f in the watershed. The increased quantity of runoff has caused problems such as excessive stream bank erosion and the deepening of the stream channel due to channel erosion.
This erosion causes increased levels of Total Suspended Solids that settle out in the lower gradient reaches within Illinois Beach State Park and impair aquatic habitat. The eff cient stormwater system also causes decreased base f ows during the drier summer and fall months, which can result in low dissolved oxygen levels that impair aquatic habitat. Conductivity levels, an indicator of chlorides within the water column (also referred to as Total Dissolved Solids or TDS), were also shown to be high, indicating that salt applied to roads for snow and ice control are impairing water quality. Lake Michigan beaches exhibit ongoing problems with fecal contamination due to high gull populations.
To improve this situation, the use of stormwater best management practices and the preservation and natural buffering of the natural drainage system (overland f ow paths, streams, wetlands, lakes and f oodplain) should be required in all new development and encouraged in areas that are already developed. Drainage and detention in existing developed areas also should be retro f tted to better control runoff rates and to improve water quality. Natural hydrologic regimes and drainage systems should be preserved and/or restored to the extent practicable to reduce the impact of development and hydrologic modi f cation on f ooding and water quality and to help achieve aquatic habitat objectives.
All landowners and stakeholders within the watershed can contribute to water quality improvement by managing land and property to prevent or remove pollutants from the landscape before they can be washed into the stream. Management and maintenance of the stormwater management system is primarily the responsibility of municipalities and the Beach Park Drainage District, including both the conveyance system (pipes and drainage swales) and detention ponds, unless management of these features has been assumed by a homeowners association or other party. The implementation of green infrastructure best management practices (BMPs) is the responsibility of all landowners (for existing development) and developers and homebuilders (for new development).
However, municipalities must require or encourage these practices to be installed. Preservation of remaining natural drainage and storage (green infrastructure) features of the landscape is the responsibility of municipalities.
Programmatic actions for water quality and stormwater management are listed in Table 5.3.

176 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N 5 prioritized action plan 5.2.3 PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS The Dead River watershed is largely built out, meaning that a very limited amount of developable land remains.
The existing developed landscape has and continues to impact watershed resources primarily due to the conversion (and loss) of the natural landscape to urban uses, alteration of the natural drainage and water retention features of that landscape, and the rate, volume, and quality of stormwater runoff.
The Lake County W atershed Development Ordinance provides good standards and practices for addressing some of these impacts, however, the jurisdictional scope of the County is limited, and watershed municipalities, as the primary land use and development decision-making entities, are responsible for adopting and enforcing many of the planning, zoning, subdivision, and development standards that will af fect watershed resources. Current municipal planning and development standards do not adequately identify, prioritize, or preserve valuable landscape features nor require (and in some cases, they do not even allow) the use of conservation design, low impact development, or stormwater best management practices.
Watershed and green infrastructure recommendations should be integrated into local policies, plans, and budgets.
Standards and policies that protect the natural drainage system from hydrologic modi f cation activities such as clearing, compaction, draining, f lling, dredging, and straightening, such as providing overlay zoning for high priority green infrastructure, are needed. These development standards may include changes to zoning regulations, subdivision, commercial, and industrial standards, to include conservation and low impact development techniques by right (rather than as an exception), natural buffers, and green infrastructure protection/management programs.
The parties that are responsible for implementing planning and development standards are primarily those responsible for land use decisions. Thus, the primary responsibility lies with the municipalities and Lake County.

Some large open parcels have been protected as natural areas, such as Illinois Beach State Park (IBSP) and Lyons Woods Forest Preserve, and others are protected for more active use, such as Thunderhawk Golf Club Forest Preserve and Shiloh Park in Zion. While these public holdings form good, large green infrastructure hubs, the connections between those hubs, particularly along the stream corridors where they are most needed, are largely nonexistent. In many cases, the opportunity does not exist to preserve these areas--they are privately owned and already developed. However, a few open parcels do remain, as illustrated in Figure 5.1. The preservation of this green infrastructure system is not only important for preserving environmental resources, but makes good economic sense for the community as well. Green infrastructure helps protect the natural conveyance system, absorb f ood waters reducing f ood damage, can reduce the continued degradation of stream resources needing expensive remediation, and can preserve high value resources making the community a Table 5.5 Green Infrastructure Programmatic Actions healthy and desirable place to live.
A connected green infrastructure network throughout the watershed should be protected and enhanced or restored to improve its functional value.
The watershed green infrastructure network primarily consists of the natural drainage system including open parcels along the stream corridor and those prioritized as Category 1 (highest priority) sites. Municipalities, which are primarily responsible for preserving green infrastructure parcels, should identify these areas as important within community plans, policies, and budgets, avoid extending gray infrastructure (roads and utilities) in a way that would impact green infrastructure parcels, and take action to preserve them using planning and development standards described above. Other parties that can support land preservation ef forts include the Lake County Forest Preserve District and, for parcels of higher biological quaility, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.
Programmatic actions for green infrastructure are listed in Table 5.5. Prioritized green infrastructure areas, which are describedin greater detail in Tables 5.6 through 5.1 1, are shown in Figure 5.1.

Natural areas within the Dead River watershed include Illinois Beach State Park, L yons W oods Forest Preserve, and parts of Thunderhawk Golf Club Forest Preserve. Lyons Woods and IBSP are some of the most biologically diverse ecosystems in the State of Illinois. The state park has one of the last remaining reaches of natural Lake Michigan shoreline in Illinois. These holdings signi f cant and form a strong foundation for the green infrastructure network.
Outside of these areas, natural areas are sparse and found primarily along the Union Pacif c railroad corridor, with three remaining open parcels bounded by Yorkhouse Road, North Avenue, and Sheridan Road. Nonetheless, landowners along the stream corridor are responsible for restoring and managing the stream and riparian areas, which are very important to the natural health of the watershed.
Wetland protection, management, and restoration are needed to protect the natural conveyance system, improve water quality, provide stormwater storage, and other natural resource benef ts. As recipients of drainage from the entire Dead River watershed upstream, IBSP and L yons Woods are being degraded by that runoff and are in critical need of restoration and management to protect and enhance their high quality wetlands and natural areas. Upstream watershed management that restores a more natural hydrology and reduces erosion, pollution, and sediment loads to the park and forest preserve will help stabilize the hydrology and preserve rare and highly valued natural communities in the park and forest preserve downstream.
Erosion of the Lake Michigan shoreline is a problem related to the disruption of the natural transport and deposition of sand that under natural conditions replenishes the beach.
While a number of actions have been taken to help reduce erosion and replenish the sand, they have resulted in very limited and temporary success.
Programmatic actions for natural areas are listed in Table 5.6.

182 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N 5 prioritized action plan 5.2.6 LAND MANAGEMENT In any watershed, the way that land is managed, developed, grown, and otherwise acted upon by the residents and others in the watershed af fects the quality of watershed resources. Land uses such as transportation, industrial, and commercial, with large areas of impervious surfaces such as rooftops, roads, and parking lots, contribute signi f cant amounts of pollutants to streams and other water resources.
Management of the turf grass areas of residential and other land uses such as schools and parks contribute fertilizers and pesticides, and the disposal of yard waste in or near the stream or other water feature impacts these resources by contributing decomposing organic matter, which reduces dissolved oxygen levels in water
. Animal populations, including pets, deer, and gulls along the Lake Michigan shoreline contribute bacterial contamination to the stream and beaches, making them unsuitable for human contact.
Construction activities can result in signi f cant site erosion, which sends sediment into the stream system. All of these pollutants eventually end up in Lake Michigan, the source of drinking water and recreation for millions of people.
Appropriate land management practices can help reduce pollutant loading at the source, before pollutants reach streams and other water resources. Road and parking lot maintenance, including street sweeping and the reduction of road salt application in winter
, can help prevent toxic materials, sediment, and chlorides from f owing to the stream and impairing water quality. Soil erosion and sediment control practices installed during the development and construction process can signif cantly reduce the contribution of sediment from these sites.
Appropriate landscape maintenance, such as reduced application of fertilizers and pesticides, installation of native landscapes, and appropriate disposal of yard waste, can reduce the concentration of landscaping pollutants in stormwater runof f and the stream. Installing best management practices such as riparian buf fers and f lter strips can remove pollutants from runof f before they can reach the stream. For example, stream riparian buf fers have the potential to remove 75% of sediment and 50% of phosphorous from stormwater runof f. Naturalized swales can remove up to 80% of total suspended solids and 30%
of phosphorous.
Three sites within the Dead River watershed present unique challenges and opportunities for land managment.
The Waukegan Regional Airport, which is planning to expand within the next 10 years, is partially covered by impervious surfaces and requires the use of f uids and chemicals to support the airport activities, some of which are toxic or otherwise harmful to water quality and habitat. The airport implements a Storm W ater Pollution Prevention Plan and Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure Plan that it should continue to update and apply. The airport should also consider implementing the road and parking lot maintenance recommendations, as well as those related to turf grass and grounds management for those areas not covered by impervious surfaces.
The Zion Nuclear Power Station is scheduled to be decommissioned over the next 10 years and the City of Zion plans the future land use of this area to be single family residential. If feasible, and if all contamination or other nuclear legacy issues can be adequately addressed, this land should be remediated, restored to a natural state, and re-integrated into Illinois Beach State Park and the unique resources found there.
Property owners within the W aukegan Harbor Area of Concern, which includes the harbor and the industrial land uses to the north and surrounding the harbor, should take special land management precautions. Property should be kept clean of debris, f uids, chemicals, and other materials that have the potential to leach or otherwise migrate into streams, Lake Michigan, or other areas. Material piles or storage areas also should be covered or contained.

5.2.7 FLOOD MANAGEMENT Flooding and risk of f ooding are fairly common in northeastern Illinois and Lake County, primarily due to the impact of urban development, which increases impervious surfaces, increases the rate and volume of stormwater runof f, and modif es and builds in natural storage and f oodplain areas.
These factors, coupled with a f at Illinois landscape where excess water tends to spread out over a wide area, has resulted in f ooding problems. For this reason, it is important to preserve and not modify existing f ood storage capacity of the landscape including depressional areas, wetlands, and f oodplains.
While Flood Problem Area Inventory (FP AI) sites within the watershed are not extensive in terms of af fected area, f ooding within these areas can be extremely destructive and disruptive to those suffereing from f ood damage. Flooding of roads and intersections, such as those reported by the Illinois Department of Transportation, disrupt travel and economic activity. In addition to these identi f ed f ooding problems, potential f ood areas have also been identi f ed that may affect up to 270 structures in the 100-year f oodplain and 682 structures in the 500-year f oodplain.
Addressing current and potential f ood problems is important for those affected and for the overall impact of f ood damage to society in general. Current f ooding issues were due either to a local drainage problem, meaning that the size of the drainage system, whether underground sewer
, ditch, or overland f ow path, is insuff cient to carry the volume of water required, or to sanitary sewer or septic failure, as in the Lake County Gardens Subdivision.
None of these locations fall within the 100-year f oodplain, and f ood insurance is not an option for these landowners.
Increasing the local drainage capacity for these areas will probably require installation of new or larger sewer pipes, larger culverts, or improving or increasing the capacity of the ditch or overland f ow path. Installing or increasing local f ood storage, such as through installation of detention basins, is another potential solution. Floodproo f ng options, such as raising the structure above the level of f ooding, protection using the surrounding land such as levees, sealing basement windows and doorways in homes, and application of f oodproof ng materials to buidling foundations also exist for these locations.
For sewer backup problems, one-way f ow valves are available that allow f ow to leave a structure via the sewer pipe but do not allow f ow to enter a structure through the same pathway.
For landowners with structures within the 10- or 100-year f oodplain boundary, options include f ood insurance to help repair damages due to f ooding, f oodproof ng such as raising a structure, and f ood buyouts, where a property owner voluntarily sells the land and structure. Under f ood butyouts, the structure is typically removed from the property and f oodplain and the land is no longer available for development.

For example, appropriate stormwater management practices applied in the western headwaters of the watershed can improve aquatic resources as far away as Illinois Beach State Park and Lake Michigan, and can reduce f ooding and streambank erosion problems for downstream communities and landowners. And just as the actions of one stakeholder can impact distant resources, the participation, coordination, and action of all of the stakeholders is needed to create real and lasting improvement of watershed resources.
No single party, stakeholder, jurisdiction, or discipline can effectively implement this watershed plan alone.
Coordination across property and jurisdictional lines is critical for implementing plan recommendations that require multiple funding sources and coordination of time and ef fort beyond a single stakeholder's resources. For example, municipalities must adopt the green infrastructure plan and coordinate implementation ef forts and resources to achieve the most ef f cient and ef fective results. Neighbors must work together to address streambank erosion issues that threaten their properties. A strong coalition of dedicated watershed stakeholders, including representatives from all of the municipalities, the county
, and residents and landowners must form a new Dead River watershed-based organization to help coordinate and lead watershed plan implementation ef forts, provide education and assistance to watershed stakeholders, and make recommendations for project funding. Local, state, and federal agency programs, including voluntary education initiatives, technical and f nancial support for planning and best management practice projects, and regulatory programs that permit or restrict development activities, can be combined and leveraged for multiple benef ts.

Extensive map analysis using existing data including land use, wetlands, soil, f oodplain and green infrastructure overlays. These analyses included green infrastructure prioritization, identi f cation of critical areas, and non-point source pollution loading.
This action plan (T ables 5.10 through 5.15) is organized by the jurisdiction in which the recommendation falls, and includes the information listed below. This structure should allow jurisdictional representatives to easily identify which recommendations are within their sphere of in f uence and control. The action recommendations have been located on the Subwatershed Management Unit Maps found in Figures 5.2 through 5.10 and are identi f ed by the three-digit Recommendation ID#.
Tables 5.10 through 5.15 are subsets of a more detailed action plan table that is included in Appendix H. Chapter 6 identi f es a number of implementation details, such as area and cost, that are essential for understanding the diff culty and extent of putting these recommendations into effect.
Recommendation Identi f cation # (ID#): each action is identif ed by a three-number identif cation label: (1) SMU, (2) stream reach, and (3) identi f cation number for each action. For example, 2.27.4 would refer to Action #4 along Reach 27 within SMU 2. These ID numbers correspond to those on the SMU maps in Figures 5.2 through 5.10.
Jurisdiction: identi f es the jurisdiction within which the recommendation falls. Individual jurisdictions are listed f rst, followed by multi-jurisdictional recommendations.
Recommendation
Description:
narrative explanation of the action recommendation. Those recommendations that address Critical Areas (identif ed in Chapter 3 Section 17) are shown in italics.
Goal-Obj: the Goal and Objective the action item is intended to address.
Priority: priority refers to the rank importance of the action. A "1" indicates high priority and "3" indicates lower priority.
Ease of Implementation: indicator of how dif f cult the recommended action is to implement, with "1" indicating a fairly simple action and "3" more complex or dif f cult action to implement.
Time frame: indicator of when the action recommendation is intended to be implemented: Short (1-5 years), Medium (5-10 years), or Long (10+ years).
189 T H E D E A D R IV E R l WAT E R S H E D - B A S E D P LA N Implementation Responsibility: indicates the lead party that will most likely be responsible for implementing the action recommendation as well as any supporting parties.
The site-specif c recommendations in Tables 5.10 through 5.15 ref ect the opportunity sites identi f ed by stakeholders, past studies and inventories, and other components of the watershed assessment. However, they do not include all of the opportunities for best management practice projects in the watershed. Figures 5.2 through 5.10 illustrate the location of the site speci f c recommendations included in Tables 5.10 through 5.15.
