The Watershed

Eagleville Brook is typical of urban stream syndrome, a complex and synergistic combination of hydrologic alteration and multiple pollutant stressors. The Brook is included on the 2008 list of Connecticut waterbodies not meeting water quality standards based on very low aquatic life use support scores, the causes of which are cited as “unknown.” The Brook has a 2.4 square mile drainage area and flows to an impoundment of the Willimantic River, a tributary of the Thames River basin, which encompasses much of the eastern third of the state. The Eagleville watershed drains a large portion of the University of Connecticut, and for long stretches in the upper part of the watershed the brook is piped underground beneath the campus.
