Permeabilities range from 90вЂ“160 d in sand several millidarcys to 50 d in muddy sand, silt, and sandy silt beds from the levee, crevasse, and abandoned-channel fill and less than 10 md in muddy silts and muds from abandoned-channel and chute-fill mud sheets and laminae.ДЄt all levels within a fluvial meander-belt system, these permeability heterogeneities are the principal controls on productivity throughout the life of a reservoir. Heterogeneity level 6 is individual sand laminae (grain-flow lenses or grain-fall sheets) separated by textural variations (and hence permeability-porosity variations) and isolated mud-silt laminae. Permeable, cross-bedded sand bundles are separated by low-permeability, inclined and horizontal mud-silt layers and lenses present along bed-set boundaries. The fifth level of heterogeneity is the single bedding unit (about 10 ac-ft or 12,000 m 3) at the scale of a reservoir flow unit or perforated interval. Heterogeneity level 4 is the lobe sheet unit (reservoir pay zone about 450 ac-ft or 555,000 m 3 in volume) comprising channel, point-bar, and splay sand bodies. The third level of heterogeneity is composed of about 70,000 ac-ft (86.3 million m 3) of individual, permeable channel, point-bar, and crevasse-splay sand bodies, with numerous thin sheets and lenses of low-permeability muds and silts (derived from chute fill and mud drapes) that impede vertical migration of fluids. Abandoned mud-filled chutes impede lateral migration of fluids in the upper parts of the meander scroll.

Heterogeneity level 2 is the size of pools within a field and has 1.2 million ac-ft (1.5 billion m 3) of highly permeable, laterally accreted channel and point-bar sands, partly or wholly isolated from other sand bodies by low-permeability, abandoned-channel clay plugs. Overbank flood-plain muds capping the meander-belt system are barriers to vertical migration of fluids. Heterogeneity level 1 is similar in size to an oil field and consists of (1) 9 million ac-ft (11.1 billion m 3) of high-permeability channel sands in numerous meander scrolls and (2) 4 million ac-ft (4.9 billion m 3) of low-permeability clay plugs (in numerous abandoned channels) that separate a field into isolated pools and reservoirs. Reservoir, expansion of Meander Creek.Six hierarchical levels of sand heterogeneity that would be present in analogous reservoirs are recognized in a Mississippi River meander-belt system in southeastern Missouri: (1) meander belt, (2) meander scroll, (3) channel, point bar, and splay, (4) lobe sheet, (5) bedding unit, and (6) laminae.

Go here for more about the evolution of the route numbering at this interchange. Approximately 21.6 million gallons of water are delivered to Youngstown and surrounding communities. The reservoir capacity is 11 billion gallons, with a 50 foot high dam that is 3550 feet long, with a 260 foot spillway.
