2001-2002 Illinois Hunter Harvest Report

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

A random sample of 3,000 hunters was selected from the purchasers of 2001 Illinois Habitat Stamps and resident hunting licenses. The sample was evenly divided between each sample frame (habitat stamps and hunting license). Of the sample of 3,000 hunters, 2,902 questionnaires were deliverable. We received 1,906 (66%) questionnaires, 1,883 of which were usable. License sales increased 2.1% from 2000 (290,000) to the 2001 season (296,000). From 2000-2001 to 2001-2002, harvests increased for 4 game animal categories (woodcock, gray squirrel, raccoon, and coyote), decreased for 8 game animal categories (rabbit, quail, pheasant, dove, gray partridge, fox squirrel, red fox, and opossum), and did not change for 1 category (gray fox). Activities of hunters and types of land hunted were profiled, as were attitudes toward hunting programs and general information about hunters.

A method for estimating groundwater contribution areas for Illinois nature preserves and other natural areas.

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

A new method for estimating the groundwater contribution area (GCA) for Illinois nature preserves was demonstrated using 12 test sites (Bluff Springs Fen, Braidwood Dunes and Savanna, Elizabeth Lake, George B. Fell, Goose Lake, Illinois Beach, Lake in the Hills Fen, Lockport Prairie, Parker Fen, Romeoville Prairie, Spring Grove Fen, and Volo Bog). The sites were selected for their varied hydrogeologic settings and available hydrogeologic data. None of the sites had sufficient local groundwater studies available to identify an entire GCA. Regional studies available for six preserves readily could be used to identify a regional GCA. The amount of hydrogeologic data available for any given preserve will vary, but for most Illinois nature preserves groundwater studies are not available to evaluate groundwater flow conditions. Because contribution areas must be determined to address site management issues, this new method accommodates those sites by identifying GCAs using available information. In particular, it uses published hydrologic and geologic data, if available, as well as uncompiled water-level data, and proxy data adjusted by best professional judgment to account for significant features affecting shallow, unconfined groundwater flow. Surface watersheds were delineated and adjusted based on significant hydrologic features (e.g., water elevations in ponds, streams, and wetlands; infrastructure such as ditches, sewers, and roadways) to develop adjusted surface watershed areas (ASWAs) for all 12 sites. These ASWAs and regional GCAs were compared to determine the viability of substituting ASWAs for regional GCAs at preserves lacking groundwater-level data. The ASWAs identified between 7 and 68 percent of the regional GCAs. More importantly, the ASWAs included the most hydrologically significant locations directly upgradient of each preserve. Use of an ASWA to estimate groundwater flow will not be effective in some hydrogeologic settings, including those where confined groundwater sources, karst terrains, and significant groundwater withdrawals may be a factor. Regional GCAs and ASWAs were combined at each site to create final GCAs that attempt to identify all areas that could contribute groundwater to a nature preserve. Final GCA estimates presented in this report will be useful to determine areas where a Class III (also known as Special Resource) groundwater designation could be applied under Title 35 Section 620.230(b) of the Illinois Administrative Code. They also identify areas of important groundwater resources where it may be most effective to focus management or acquisition efforts to ensure preserve integrity.

Criminal History Records (CHRI) Audit Report

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

This audit of the Illinois criminal history record system, maintained by the Illinois State Police (ISP), was another in a series of assessments conducted by the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA) pursuant to requirements of the Bureau of Justice Assistance funding guidelines. This audit was designed as a follow-up to the 1995 statewide audit conducted by ICJIA. This audit was conducted on records created after Illinois began its participation in the program (covering the period 1994-1998), and just before a major re-write of ISP's Computerized Criminal History (CCH) database was implemented in September, 1999. The findings presented here measure the progress made since 1995 and serve as a benchmark by which to assess future improvements to the Illinois criminal history record system.
