Savanna Army Depot Savanna Army Depot was a 13062 acre installation, located on the eastern bank of the Mississippi River, in Carroll and Jo Daviess counties, around 7 mi north of Savanna, Illinois. It was opened in 1917 as a proving and testing facility for weapons developed at Rock Island Arsenal. In 1921 it became a weapons depot.

The Jo-Carroll Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) was established to redevelop a portion of the property for commercial and business usage referred to as the Savanna Depot Park. On September 26, 2003, the United States Department of Defense agreed to transfer 9404 acre of land to become the Lost Mound Unit of the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge. 3022 acre were initially transferred with the rest to be transferred following environmental cleanup.
