Abstract | The Illinois River watershed extends southwesterly across the northern half of Illinois from Chicago to the Mississippi River at Grafton, 38.7 miles above St. Louis, Missouri, northerly to just west of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and easterly to South Bend, Indiana. About 40 percent of the State is drained by the Illinois River. This report covers seven multipurpose reservoirs on tributaries entering the Illinois River between Peoria and a point a few miles below Beardstown. |
