St. Louis River
Largest US Tributary to Lake Superior
Largest working harbor on the Great Lakes
Area of Concern due to legacy pollution and habitat degradation
NERR emphasis on Lake Superior estuaries across the basin (monitoring, research, partnerships)

Sondes: YSI 6600 V2s and EXO2
Two-week to Four-week deployment
More bio-fouling in summer means shorter deployments
Optical probes are used due to their durability and ease of maintenance. Less susceptible to drifting.

Calibration of sondes within
24 hours of deployment.
Side-by-side reading for retrieval/deployment.
Calibration logs are kept with precalibration, calibrated, and post deployment values.
Field logs are kept with field measurementand observations. Reserve: Station Name: File Name:

Ribbon Cutting April 2014
In 2014 SWMP Tier I completed
Add parameters of interest to partners as funding allows (TP/TN, sulfate, etc)
Move onto SWMP Tier II (biological –vegetation surveys, and periphyton/diatoms?)
Sentinel Site work combines with SWMP
Wild Rice Restoration
Habitat Research and
Restoration
