About this file

This document is a reference guide produced by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources that identifies and maps 64 waterfowl survey sites across the state. The document serves as a comprehensive inventory system for aerial waterfowl surveys conducted by the Illinois DNR across four distinct survey areas: Northeast Illinois, West-central Illinois, Central Illinois, and Southern Illinois. The sites encompass various types of water bodies and wildlife management areas, including rivers, lakes, marshes, wildlife and fishery management areas (FWAs), state nature areas (SNAs), and state recreation areas (SRAs).

The document provides detailed geographic and reference materials for conducting systematic aerial inventory counts of waterfowl populations. The survey sites are distributed across multiple regions and include both publicly managed natural resource areas (such as state parks and conservation areas) and private lands enrolled in management programs (farms, ranches, and clubs). The mapping materials indicate flight corridors and survey transects, with scale references provided for each regional survey area. This inventory system enables the Illinois DNR to monitor waterfowl populations across diverse habitats and geographic regions, supporting wildlife management decisions and conservation planning efforts. No pricing, contractual terms, or procurement-related information is contained within this reference document.
