PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT PARK ATTENDANT l, ROCK CREEK PARK C.1 General Information C.1.1 Background: Perry Lake is typical of northern Kansas, which consists of rolling uplands, eroded valleys of varying widths and meandering streams. The valley along the Delaware River is formed by irregular hills with slopes ranging from fairly gentl e to steep. The steep slopes are usually covered in native woodlands. Gentle slopes prevail in the upper valley of the main river and along tributary arms and are generally tillable. A very noticeable quality of Perry Lake is its diverse habitats and environment. Traveling through one park may evoke impressions of the Missouri Ozarks while moments later; another area will possess characteristics of a prairie environment found in centra l Kansas. The rolling geography and wooded roadside provide scenic drives through some of the park areas. Most of the shorelines are enshrouded with woodlands and shrubs that partially obscure scenic views of the lake. The Kansas River basin has a drainage area of approximately 1117 square miles of total area above the dam. There are 39,338.47 acres of fee land and 3,449.24 acres of flowage easement, with 1,187.58 in Atchison County and 2,261.66 acres in Jefferson County for a total acquisition of 42,787.71 acres. The lake has 11,631 acres of surface area and 159 miles of shoreline at multipurpose pool. The Corps of Engineers has primary responsibility for the lake operations, wildlife management, Federal Parks, lands outside public areas, shoreline management and numerous other aspects of management of Perry Lake. The Corps of Engineers also provides som e assistance, whenever feasible, with the hunting, fisheries management and enforcement of safe boating regulations. Perry Dam is located 3 miles north of Perry, Kansas in Jefferson County and at mile 5.3 of the Delaware River in the northeast portion of the state. It is situated within 50 miles of one-third of the states population. Three of the states four metropolit an areas are in close proximity to the lake: Topeka, Kansas City, and Lawrence. Due to the lakes proximity to these population areas, the lake will continue to receive high use.
