Then and Now : Water Resources in Illinois, 1818-1968
The great rivers and lakes were the first pathways into the wilderness. These paths led to Illinois — by the Mississippi on the west, the Ohio and Wabash on the south and east, and Lake Michigan on the northeast. The
state was shaped by these tremendous border waters. Crisscrossing its broad prairies were other major waterways. In all, Illinois has more than 2,700 interior streams.published or submitted for publicationis peer reviewe

The Kankakee River Yesterday and Today
Again and again residents of the Kankakee River Basin in Illinois had voiced concerns about the degrading quality of the river — particularly from sedimentation. By June 1978 it was clear — the myriad problems of the Kankakee basin could not be solved without more technical information. The amount, the source, and the physical mechanisms involved in the movement of sediment though the river basin were not known — nor the effect of this sediment on water quality and the many uses of the river
