Resource Abstract:
The U.S. Geological Survey-Illinois Water Science Center collected bathymetric data in Lake Calumet and a portion of the Calumet
River in the vicinity of Lake Calumet to produce a bathymetric map. The bathymetric survey was conducted over three days (July
26, September 11, and November 7, 2012). Lake Calumet has become a focus area for Asian carp rapid response efforts by state
and federal agencies and very little bathymetric data existed prior to this survey. This bathymetric survey provides data
for a variety of scientific and engineering studies of the area; for example, hydraulic modelling of water and sediment transport
